Default First Red Tail review..Told ya!

Facially scarred Darth Vader Nazi LOL! Wonder if he has fangs too LOL. Probably that idiot Gordon Gallob who actually had a Scottish father...OUCH! He was absolutely hated because he got so many men killed. Really makes me mad. Now I don't know if I'll even go.

Which I consider falling into the same category of movies + sci fi stuff. American war movies released for theatres have mostly been modern fairy tails anyways (yes, even Private Ryan).

The only exception I can think of are the two Eastwood movies about Iwo Jima, which I thought were excellent, and Band of Bothers, though the latter was a Mini Series produced for TV.

So in light of this I fail to understand where the sudden expectations come from?

If you want to see good war movies, go Russian or Finnish.

Das Boote was good. Also Tora Tora Tora and the old 1969 Battle of Britain. Even the battle between the high command and the German fighter pilots was pretty accurate in that.

The CGI looks top notch....it's just the questionable physics that look awfull, basically the aircraft move like tie fighters.

Steinhof was burnt to a crisp and he does have a big fencing scar but does he remind you of Darth Vader
