About

If you want a big, blockbuster WWII air-combat drama with intense intensity and camaraderie, you may like this; Not for you if you dislike over-sentimental war stories or want strictly balanced historical perspectives like Band of Brothers or The Pacific.

Pros: amazing aerial action; strong brotherhood; standout effects | Cons: schmaltzy storytelling; uneven character focus; historical gripes
