Early part of the movie, when they realize no other traffic is showing on radar, the Captain decides to "make a loop" to see if anything shows up. First off, a "loop" in an aircraft is a 360 degree move in the vertical plane, something never done with a commercial aircraft... he meant a turn. Second they started the maneuver by pushing forward on the control yokes which would begin a descent. In a turn, you normally descend unless you ease back on the yoke to maintain lift.
