Movie Reviews of Flying Tigers
Movie Review: Fightin' Jap's in China
Summary: 4 Stars
'Flying Tigers' is a classic, and I like the movie a lot. I've watched the movie quite a few times over the years. But there are some inaccuracies, like when the P-40's attack 'Nakajima's', they are actually Buffaloes(!), but some planes are Japanese. And when the P-40's make head on passes, they always manage to shoot the Japanese pilots/gunners in the face. With a few mistakes here and there, I still like the movie.
Summary of Flying Tigers
Top gun john wayne leads a heroic squadron of american mercenary pilots against an overwhelming japanese air force in sky-blazing wwii action. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 11/09/2004 Starring: John Wayne Anna Lee Run time: 101 minutes Rating: NrJohn Wayne plays the tough commander of Flying Tigers, the famous fighter squadron that fought to save China from the Japanese. Wayne finds he is fighting a war on two fronts: he's taking on the enemy with only a handful of inexperienced men and patched-up planes while keeping a cocky new pilot from stealing his girl. The story has little in common with real history, and lots of classic post-Pearl Harbor propaganda fills the script. Regardless, the movie is all Wayne's, and Wayne fans will enjoy seeing the prototype for what would become the Duke's trademark portrayal of the military fighting man.
Although the pressure of making life-and-death decisions in wartime may be more maturely explored in Twelve O'Clock High, Flying Tigers still has enough characterization and action to keep the viewer's attention (not to mention special effects by the pioneering Howard Lydecker). --Mark Savary
