The reason why the actor was "explaining" the action to ATC is just a means of explaining it to us, the audience, without having to speak and look directly into the camera. It's an often used "go arround" maneuver in action movies. :D
Apollo 13 managed pretty well without resorting to too much of that. There are ways around it, and I appreciate the effort to make something as close as possible to real life. There are always details about real life that you can tell come from first hand experience. You wouldn't miss them if they weren't there (because most people aren't pilots or astronauts), but you do notice when they are there. Black Swan does that with ballet. The Wrestler does that with wrestling. What an editor and director might do is front load the flight in question with exposition, so that when you actually get to the flight, the audience already knows what to look for.
yes. but that's not the point of these videos. the point is to point out that it's not realistic. why did you watch this? so you could say it's just a movie? he's says several times "that's just the way they wrote it". you probably clap after a good landing.
I've always wanted to ask a pilot whether they're offended by that. I'd thought that with corporate speak turned on at all times they'd say they're flattered but inside they hated it.
A lot of airlines use that situation as an interview question; "You're a probationary FO. First flight off IOE. You show up and the Captain smells of alcohol. What do you do?"
I can understand the hesitation one would feel over their job reporting someone over you, what I don't understand is why your job would be more important than your health/safety.
As a Private Pilot I thoroughly enjoy this video you gave commentary about subjects that mostly Pilots would understand, however you said it in a way where non Pilots can understand the workings of a modern airliner as well, your dry humor made it all that much more enjoyable so I decide to subscribe and look forward to watching more of your work
Absolutely annoying and unrealistic, but it's meant to ever increase suspense among viewers. Normally music is used for this in films, but in an "aviation" movie, they use jet engine noise.
@@rykehuss3435 I think you meant the 1986 movie..not the new one. I hope he does a video on Top Gun 1986. I love that movie and I know it has a lot of mistakes in it, but it would be fun to watch Mover tear it apart.
Because someone who literally has your life in their hands just averted a disaster. It like people clapping for the medical professional or clapping for pilots who successfully complete a water landing or something. Sounds like some of you have no sense of gratitude.
@@ultradevon04 in an emergancy situation that you survive, yes clap, but on a regular landing, its like clapping your taxi driver for taking you down the road
@@ultradevon04 "Because someone who literally has your life in their hands just averted a disaster." In a normal landing? That's just insulting to everyone involved.
I’ve read that this role was offered to John Travolta. Travolta is a pilot, and said that his pilot friends would never stop laughing about the crazy antics in the flying portion. It’s great that you noted the controls were restored after inverted flight, and that they would not have been able to achieve full power with engines off...lol!
Not sure which aircraft this was meant to be: - interior looks like B737 - final call outs sound like Airbus - what about two engines mounted at the end, instead of under the wings?
The producers specifically took certain elements of several aircraft so they didn’t have 1 type of aircraft look like it was prone to crashing. They also never had Whip drink 1 brand of alcohol more than once so they wouldn’t vilify one particular brand.
I love the cheesy sound effect they use when ANY aircraft is descending the sound effect is a Jericho Siren on a Stuka dive bomber lol its hilarious hearing a commercial jet with Jericho Sirens lol
Controller here: spot on about deviations. Just tell use you want to deviate left or right, we'll restrict how far you can go if we need it for traffic and give you a fix to navigate once you're done.
You have perfect mix of actually knowing a lot of stuff, and being kinda "American" about it with all the funny, sarcastic comments. Love your channel, keep this series up!
I experienced an in air emergency while flying as an Air Force crew chief. Watching this movie brought up some bad memories of that incident. Your breakdown was really good, because when you're in that kind of situation you don't remember everything exactly as it happened.
'Reached max turbulence penetration speed (giggity)'. She's got a stiff elevator (giggity) The movie has a cool scene at the beginning but I can't talk about it for reasons (giggity). Lol Awesome!
To sum the things up: No inverted flying for longer than few seconds because of fuel pumps that can't work in negative G. You won't feel lack of HYD on the controls as MD-80 has manual ailerons and not fully hydraulic elevator (only rudder has normal hydraulic booster). Throttles are some kind of merge between 737 and MD-80. In reality they don't have white levers near the black ones. PFD and ND seems like from retrofitted 757 (rectangular and not square like in 737). So they are not from 737 and not from 717 (or any retrofitted MD-80). It says minimums after 10, so who the hell set minimums to below 10 feet? Not sure it is even possible to set minimums to like 5 feet or so.
My first thought was that if the wings are designed for lift when the aircraft is upright, inverting the aircraft would cause lift in the negative sense and push the aircraft even faster toward the ground.
@@kd5you1 That is what usually happens with neutral elevator. If you go inverted you have to compensate it a lot with elevator to don't loose altitude (as the aerofoil won't give you lift, or rather gives negative lift when inverted, you have to use angle of attack to get lift). IIRC in the movie we have the situation when elevator is stuck in pitch down position. Then, when you invert the plane you go upwards (or at least don't dive that much).
Make Anthros Great Again I, and I do NOT mean figuratively, couldn’t agree with you more!!!!! As a LEOW-it’s a rare shift that passes without hearing about an instance where paying attention for that extra second, wouldn’t have a better outcome!
Read about AF447, testimony of Sullenberg to Congress, ways pilots are now trained and treated in line of work.... aviate, naviagte, communicate is thing of past.
I think they are clapping because a fearful event is seemingly over. Most people don't anything about flying so they clap for the pilot who has their lives in their hands. Pilots are awesome. They deserve a little love.
@@magoid That is the quote. Another good one was: "You don't ask a man if he's a fighter pilot if he is he'll let you know if he isn't, don't embarrass him".
Love your reviews Mover. FYI I think the flight deck is a Boeing 717. The T/off is very interesting with the captain having his hands off the controls until V1 and in a 30kt crosswind, LMFAO. Great movie tho
That's a good point. I was thinking "well yeah, the pilot wants to tell the ATC that they have an emergency, I guess it makes sense he will report the situation and give them status updates", but now I remembered that these callouts(?) exist and are a much better way of informing the ATC they might need to send a search&rescue team soon.
Thank you for pointing out that you dont really punch through turbulence. Most people dont seem to grasp, and the forces are staggering, that a plane that heavy moving so fast cant fly through gasses 4 or 5 times as thick as other spots without some effect. Turbulence might as well be invisible concrete in the sky and ramming it is like trying to land in water at terminal velocity: the force of your body hitting a sudden density change pulps your body as surely as if you had struck stone. Thats the analogue for what speeding through turbulence does to an aircraft; it smashes it and pushes it. You wouldnt run at somebodys fist as they tried to punch you
'Whip' doesn't make his screwdriver with the single serve vodkas until after they're in the air. He does it when he is making the announcement and more importantly after he cancels drink service.
When I think of this movie I always think of the Alaska Airlines incident, such a chilling thing to read the transcripts of CVR, those guys fought that plane all the way to the ground and never gave up.
8:27 thank you for this point about how the ATC would change the course and avoid that mess of a storm altogether. That mistake would have had to go through multiple layers on people so I doubt it would’ve really happened, but this is a movie lol

"Max turbulence penetration speed" "Gigitty" - Mover... not only are you a great pilot, you sir are an amazingly funny guy. I lol'ed and spit out my coffee before starting work.
Okay seriously, total props for the giggidy. This is a very cool vid. I like this movie because of its story and the fact that the air incident was likely partially inspired by Alaska 261, but the plane's inaccuracies have always sort of bothered me. (Fuel dump on a MD-80, fire handle on both engines and still functional afterward, etc.,) I know it's just a movie, and like you said it's just the way they wrote it. I do have to give the movie credit for being an entertaining flick.
Shooting the gap between storms that close is a good way to fly into a hail core that looked like a gap due to extremely heavy rain completely blocking the radar beam. The 737 that landed on the levee in Louisiana did exactly this and the hail choked the engines out!
Same! In my mind- mainly to keep my suspension of disbelief- I just figure the inversion must have freed something at least temporarily, but I wish they’d written something like that in...just SOME sort of explanation.
@@fhturner3 I believe there was an incident where the links to control surfaces (physical links, steel wires going along the plane) got stuck between some metal parts, the plane lost control, and after some serious fighting with the controls the pilots regained full control. Investigation showed that the wire simply cut through the thing it was stuck on because the pilots were making it move back and forth like a saw. Could be something similar here, where something got stuck because of the high-speed turbulence penetration, and got un-stuck after they went full airshow mode. Maybe, IDK, I'm neither a pilot nor an aerospace engineer.
My interpretation is that if the elevator was stuck in a position that would put the airplane in a pitch down attitude the airplane would be more controllable if you rolled inverted if that made it closer to trimmed for (inverted) level flight. But then you'd have to land like that and the roof would probably crumple like a piece of paper.

Hey Mover, do one on United 93. It's very hard to ruin that one because the realistic depiction of airline policies in that film is unmatched in any hollywood movie. Also the flight was a 757, it will be cool for you to dissect the procedures since you're getting type-rated on it soon.
This wasn't an aviation movie it was about substance abuse and recovery. Should be shown in group meetings and drug/alcohol classes. May not be accurate but what a great opening scene!
I think it’s kinda good to let ATC know what’s going on that way they know that you were about to crash, lately there’s too many cases of planes just vanishing and I think that’s due to lack of communication between the plane and ATC
Have you reacted to Sully? It’s about the Miracle on the Hudson. A couple other pilots (civilians) have reacted in videos and said it’s pretty accurate .
I can see we have similar feeling when it comes to movie magic. I work for a railroad and whenever we want a good laugh someone brings up Unstoppable. This was based on a real event with CSX 8888, aka. crazy eights. There is a LOT that is not true in that movie.
Enjoyed this. I do think a lot of the talking-to-ATC stuff is to help the audience understand what's going on. Writers and directors worry a lot about not losing the sudience, because once they're lost, they check out mentally, and it's difficult to get them back.
Aircraft: "We're going down!"

@@fhturner3 I believe there was an incident where the links to control surfaces (physical links, steel wires going along the plane) got stuck between some metal parts, the plane lost control, and after some serious fighting with the controls the pilots regained full control.
Investigation showed that the wire simply cut through the thing it was stuck on because the pilots were making it move back and forth like a saw.
Could be something similar here, where something got stuck because of the high-speed turbulence penetration, and got un-stuck after they went full airshow mode.
Maybe, IDK, I'm neither a pilot nor an aerospace engineer.
My interpretation is that if the elevator was stuck in a position that would put the airplane in a pitch down attitude the airplane would be more controllable if you rolled inverted if that made it closer to trimmed for (inverted) level flight. But then you'd have to land like that and the roof would probably crumple like a piece of paper.
If you know the incidents name it would be cool @@TheByQQ
@@lil__boi3027 Oh damn that's a difficult question, I think I saw it years ago on national geographic
the pilot must have graduated from the school of Jeremy Clarkson, "POWER! MAXIMUM POWER!"
The only realistic scene from this movie is the one when the stewardess woks up in the same bed with the pilot !
Pilots love stir fry!
“Flight Attendant”. Try calling them a stewardess now a days see what happens....

Just Found Your AWESOME Channel, Subbed Immediately!! Can You PLEASE Do A VIDEO REQUEST *Airline Pilot Breaks Down Scenes From The Iron Eagle 1 (1986) & Iron Eagle 2 (1988)?!* Dam I Love these 2 movies, Big Col. Charles "Chappy" Sinclair & Doug Masters and Cooper!! Keep doing what you doing, Mr Call sign *''MOVER''!!* Thanks!
Hey Mover, do one on United 93. It's very hard to ruin that one because the realistic depiction of airline policies in that film is unmatched in any hollywood movie. Also the flight was a 757, it will be cool for you to dissect the procedures since you're getting type-rated on it soon.
If he doesn't say "no autopilot, I'm flying" the audience wouldn't know what took place. It was kinda necessary, for movie purposes
This wasn't an aviation movie it was about substance abuse and recovery. Should be shown in group meetings and drug/alcohol classes. May not be accurate but what a great opening scene!
I mean when Mr Lemoine stars pointing errors from the beginning you know a huge laughter waiting for you
I think it’s kinda good to let ATC know what’s going on that way they know that you were about to crash, lately there’s too many cases of planes just vanishing and I think that’s due to lack of communication between the plane and ATC
Well sure that and off their radars
Have you reacted to Sully? It’s about the Miracle on the Hudson.
A couple other pilots (civilians) have reacted in videos and said it’s pretty accurate .
I can see we have similar feeling when it comes to movie magic. I work for a railroad and whenever we want a good laugh someone brings up Unstoppable. This was based on a real event with CSX 8888, aka. crazy eights. There is a LOT that is not true in that movie.
I just find you on the battlefield video and love your content keep the good content!!
12:40 "most airliners have a max turbulence penetration speed - giggity..." *dead*
Andrew Evans we have a real quagmire🤣🤣🤣
4:00 Older Md's and 727's etc didnt have the O2 Mask stow box. It just hung there on a hangar type clip

[Hear or see Lemoine on my flight]
[Start clapping constantly at everything]
Denzel’s flying that thing like a fucking F-16!!!
🤣😂🤣
I’m watching this on my iPhone in bed and it felt like I was there.
Enjoyed this. I do think a lot of the talking-to-ATC stuff is to help the audience understand what's going on. Writers and directors worry a lot about not losing the sudience, because once they're lost, they check out mentally, and it's difficult to get them back.
Every time I see this scene I get goosebumps and start shivering
Lol the paramedic after they inverted “sh*t!” And then we never see him again
