Summary: 4 Stars
Probably set about five years after Iron Eagle, but before the 1991 fall of the Soviet Union, this high-flying action movie brings back Lou Gossett as "Chappie" Sinclair, Doug Masters's ally in the rescue of his father. Disciplined for his part in the affair by being assigned to duty at an Air Force museum, Chappie finds himself elevated to one-star general and asked to improve upon the maverick mission that put him there. Once again a rogue Middle Eastern state (probably Iran) is causing trouble: it has created a bunker deep in its desert and installed a missile capable of reaching targets as far away as Russia. Both the US (for the sake of its allies in the region) and the Soviets want the bunker and missile destroyed, but neither wants to start a full-scale war, so a surgical strike with co-ordinated ground and air units has been planned. And since neither country quite trusts the other, those units must be made up of personnel from both. It's Sinclair's job to weld them into a cohesive force that can work together and bring down the bunker. The problem is that the people assigned to him are misfits and mavericks--and his nominal superior, Gen. Stillmore (Stuart Margolin), is setting him up to fail.
With personality conflicts galore, a tentative romance between USAF Capt. Matt Cooper (Mark Humphrey) and Russian pilot Valeri Zuyeniko (Sharon H. Brandon), and a tension-filled climactic sequence in which Chappie and his team try to carry out their mission before an en route bomber can hit the target and throw fallout for hundreds of miles, this movie, like its predecessor, is especially notable for the aerobatics that fill a good part of the running time. Other reviewers have found fault with the authenticity of the fighters used, but I don't know enough about modern ordinance to care; I just enjoy the flying.
Movie Review: Great Iron Eagle II
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie was great from many viewpoints. The main thing it showed was how a rag-tag group can put things aside and become a true team. Great cast and all around get crew.Movie Review: Not so good, not so bad.... just satisfactory...
Summary: 3 Stars
The movie is nice but i like the Iron eagle (part 1) better. I have lots of disappointment to this movie. First, They killed Doug Masters. For what reason?..... Second, The movie used F-4 Phantoms as a substitute for a MIG 29 for the Russians. The F-4 Phantoms is very far from reality compared to Mig 29. They should have used F-15 because it really looked similar to the Mig 29 with double tail fins and 2 engines with large boxed type intakes. The least choice should be an F-18 instead of the F-4 Phantoms. Third, the ground support units used an improvised M113 instead of the russian BMP's as what is mentioned in the movie. This movie is fine but i prefer the part 1.Movie Review: Doug Masters Forever?
Summary: 3 Stars
I enjoyed this movie as a kid. I felt bad when Doug Masters dies at the beginning right in front of his friend Cooper. I love it that the Russian and American governments put together a band of misfits to take down the bad guy and have Chappy lead them. If anyone can do it, Chappy can. I heard Doug Masters makes a comeback?????
