Its seemed short

It's only 96 minutes when most movies today clock in closer to the two hour mark, so I'm sure that had something to do with it.

But I feel like even at 96 minutes it feels a little padded. I believe what we have here is a situation where there was just barely enough material to make a feature film out of and Eastwood was doing everything he could to get the film to theatrical length.

Felt about right to me, don't know what else could have been put into it. It had some slow parts but those moments helped build what kind of person he is.

It's short because there is no story here. It's basically...

1) Land plane on Hudson.
2) Demonstrate that you didn't have any other options.

The end.
