I saw the movie. Won't see it again.
For both the above reasons, and for the typical phony computer graphics.
There is no way the Hercules had water spraying all the way up to the engines at take-off power. And there would be very little vibration in the cabin. They were shaking the cameras as if in a violent earthquake. When an airplane's wing meets the side of a house, the house will win. Every time. A wing will NOT make a clean slice through a wall.
On the record breaking H-1 scene, all the close-ups had no canopy, while all the distance shots were clearly an enclosed cockpit. And they kept going back and forth!
Most of the flying was well done, but overall the film was a downer. It cast Mr. Hughes much more negatively than I would have thought appropriate
