"The Captain"

Directed by Andrew Lau, this Chinese movie is based on the true story of the Sichuan Airlines flight that weathered a shattered windshield in the cockpit at 30,000 feet above the Tibetan Plateau, which resulted in the co-pilot being nearly sucked out his seat and several passengers in the cabin losing consciousness due to a lack of pressurized oxygen. In this thrilling retelling, the pilot and his crew immediately go into fight-or-flight and draw up a plan for an emergency landing while also trying to monitor the health and safety of the plane's passengers.
