A very underrated fighter pilot movie! It has great fighter pilot sequences, great action, great performances and great direction from Anthony Hemingway! Also a great looking Blu-Ray! If you love films like Top Gun and Flyboys, you’ll like this one!

In 1925, the US Army wrote that "coloreds" were incapable of anything technical, including advanced fighter aircraft, much less aerial combat. Their squadron took it upon themselves to disprove that statement by going head to head with the best fighter jocks in the Luftwaffe and showed the powers that be they were dead wrong about them. You get to know a number of their personalities, their quirks and foibles that come with being human. Having been an Avionics Technician in Carrier Airwing Light Attack, I empathized with their maintenance crew, especially the Crew Chief who was always being presented with a shot up airframe, and one time a piece of a train. Frustrated, he had to ask, "Did somebody throw a train at you?" There were those who called them uncomplimentary names at first, but by doing their job and keeping those men alive, the Red Tails gained the respect and admiration of many. Good movie.

Good movie with great actors, but the studio came up short with the graphics at some points.

The movie is about a group of Afro American Air Force pilots serving their country during World War II. They were known as the Tuskegee Airmen. But, it was their heroics in the planes that they flew ( The North American P-15 Mustangs) that they made history in. And this was after all the racism that they faced, and were finally allowed to prove themselves worthy after a successful trial run protecting a group of B-52 bombers on a airstrike mission!!

One of many of my favorite WW2 movies. The acting, storyline and cinematography was excellent. Have already watched it twice on movie channels and could watch many more. The untold story of the Tuskegee airmen it definitely a must watch.
