Brave men.....dull film
8 September 2018
Giving credit where it's due the use of Polish in the film from actors who don't normally speak Polish was worth a star.

The rest was worth 0.

Pilots with their oxygen masks hanging off during combat so we can see who is who was ridiculous. Speaking from the side of their mouths to issue instructions and congratulate each other was insulting to the audience and the pilots who flew during the Battle Of Britain.

The planes flew like something out of a Star Wars movie and they seemed to have endless ammunition. Yes I know they only had one Hurricane but the beauty of CGI is you can make it look real if you put some effort in. These were Hurricane's not space ships.

Red Tails did the same when they tried so badly to tell the story of brave black US airmen. That was an insult to brave men and this was as well.

The story of one of the best squadrons during the BOB was boring and the love story aspect even worse. Even casting Ramsay Bolton could not make it interesting.

The British film Battle Of Britain told the story of the pilots and ground personnel wonderfully. They even acknowledged the many non British pilots who fought and died with a particular emphasis on Polish pilots.

Don't waste any time on this tripe watch BOB instead and see how to make a proper film.
