Flight is a 2012 American drama film directed and co-produced by Robert Zemeckis starring Denzel Washington, with Don Cheadle, Leo, Bruce, Kelly Reilly, and John Goodman. On October 14, 2011, Airline captain William "Whip" Whitaker (Denzel Washington) awakens in his Orlando hotel room with flight attendant Katerina Marquez (Nadine Velazquez) after a night of sex, alcohol, and very little sleep. After using cocaine to wake up, he boards South Jet flight 227 to Atlanta. After Whip threads the plane through turbulence at takeoff, copilot Ken Evans (Brian Geraghty) flies the airplane while Whip discreetly mixes vodka in his orange juice and takes a nap. Whip is jolted awake just before their final descent and the aircraft goes into a steep dive as a result of an apparent catastrophic failure of control systems of the aircraft. With no other choice, Whip rolls the plane upside down to bring it out of the dive and maneuvers the plane right-side up just before crash-landing in a field. He loses consciousness upon impact.

On this movie you can see when the movie started that problem he has with the alcohol and drugs. Because Captain Whip (Denzel Washington) was in the hotel with a women and they look like they went to a party or they were drinking whole night. He just woke up and then he took a beer before he eats something for breakfast and after that he took some cocaine and then he went to the airport to flight an airplane. He does not care about the people inside the airplane because he knows he was drunk and he did not sleep at all. When he was flight the airplane he still drinking alcohol with orange juice. When you do things like that is when you know that person has some problem because when you drink or use drugs I know is your body and you can do whatever you
