He always, always plays the same type of character, the conflicted/troubled very capable man who is served some gross injustice, it got old fast for me and now I need to see if he actually warrants this crazy praise in Flight.
As for Hitchcock, it looks better than MWWM from the trailers alone, and I'm hoping Hopkins gets in somehow because he's terrific.

It's one of the best premise's for a drama I can remember, so no wonder people are going to see it.
