Sharp dialogue in a smart script. Check. Real issues and real heart? Check. Acting that will knock your socks off? Oh you better believe it's a Check! Paul Newman again proves why he's the greatest actor of all time; he crackles with intensity, wit, and humanity in every frame. Sully is one of the best, if not the best, performance by a man who wrote the book on great performances. Newman is surrounded by a remarkable supporting cast, including the wonderful Jessica Tandy and the uncredited Bruce Willis in what is easily the best performance of his career. The only weak point is Melanie Griffith, who shares all her scenes with Newman, and just can't keep up. But the way Newman clicks with Tandy, Willis, and Dylan Walsh as Sully's quietly suffering son. This is not a big movie, but it is a little story that will stay with you. Never cliched, never overdone, real life is rarely depicted with as much heartfelt reality as it is in this movie.
