Full Plot Details

Nick and the other boys (and Vicki Lewis) working the hotspot of air traffic control in New York are impressed with themselves, to say the least. They thrive on the no-room-for-error, fast-paced job and let it infect their lives. The undisputed king of pushing tin, "The Zone" Falzone, rules his workplace and his wedded life with the same short-attention span that gets planes where they need to be in the nick of time. That is, until Russell Bell, a new transfer with a reputation for recklessness but a record of pure perfection shatters the tensely-held status quo. The game of one-upmanship between the two flies so high as to lead Nick into Russell's bed with his wife. His sanity slipping just as fast as his hold on #1, Cusack's controller is thrown out-of-control when Thornton's wanderer quietly leaves town. Nick must now find a way to regain his sanity and repair his marriage before he breaks down completely.

Movie Reviews

TNT's Rough Cut - 9/10 by Graham VerdonThe characters here are refreshingly complex.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonThe movie takes a dive at the end, but it's wonderful fun before that.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Mick LaSalleTakes viewers into a unique world. It's not just about air traffic controllers. It's about controllers in a specific place and from a specific social background.
San Francisco Examiner - 8/10 by G. Allen JohnsonIt succeeds because of the frenzied, kinetic direction by Mike Newell, one of the most interesting big-hit directors.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Liam LaceyAn entertaining takeoff and a high-altitude ride eventually runs into some bumpy weather and a clumsy landing in Mike Newell's new comedy.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertThe movie is worth seeing, for the good stuff. I'm recommending it because of the performances and the details in the air-traffic control center.
New York Times - 8/10 by Janet MaslinA four-character story with four characters worth watching!
culturevulture.net - 8/10 by Arthur LazereA primo example of what classy commercial filmmaking can be!
eFilmCritic.com - 7/10 by Scott WeinbergSome movies are worth seeing just for the actors.
Salon.com - 7/10 by Stephanie ZacharekAlmost always a pleasure to watch. Pushing Tin is, essentially, a western -- Cusack really is the fastest gun in the West.
