It is not a bad movie, shows things from a different perspective, and has some great flying shots in it.

I watched it a while ago and wouldn't have known about the movie wasn't it been commented here in the forum. Got some nice scenes indeed. I think it would be good to have a sticky thread with aviation movies suggestions.

It could be this one, and as people suggest films, Timej updates his original post.

It's my favorite aviation movie, I bought the DVD some years ago after learning about it on the Ubi forum. It always reminds me of the honor of being a descendant of the Czech people.

The song is incredibly beautiful as well (would love to have it as the CloD menu music):

Probably did'nt have any American actors! The Australian film industry used to cast an American in order to sell in the USA. Things have changed a bit.

As they say, however, "LEST WE FORGET." Dead soldiers have no nationality, they are all just wasted lives. Pray we never do it again.

It was never released full scale in the US. Just at a few film festivals. HBO ran it for a few months a couple of years back. I ordered the movie after I heard about it on the Il2 forum. Great movie, wish I had a chance to see it in a theatre. They used a bunch of left over material from the Battle of Brittain.

One of my favorite WW2 movies. Some great action shots. It still has the love triangle thing most "pop" movies seem to have to have. Also it has none of the tyre some "based on a true story" where there has to be a American winning the battle mostly by himself. I'd like to add it to my collection but you can't buy the DVD in Australia any more. :(

I have a DVD of it - must give it another watch I think.
