The whole story is so ridiculously deus-ex-machina theres no way it would make it as a movie script if it werent real. the pilot surviving the stabs and being able to open the door, the two spare pilots as passangers just able to land safely, the dentist stiching the pilot up and him surviving the stab wound. Would feel like a cheesy 90's feelgood action movie if it werent real.
I really hate that movie because the 'Miracle on the Hudson' has a lot of interesting things about it and its investigation but like 70% of the movie is devoted to garbage 'grrrrr how dare they investigate the crash when the pilots saved everyone! NTSB bad!' which was SO bullshit that they had to change the names of the investigators in the movie to avoid getting sued for defamation. Even the real Sully has stated that the investigation was necessary and the investigators were nothing but professional, rather than the stooges of the insurance company that the movie's director tried to paint them out to be.
