Movie Reviews of The Hunters
Movie Review: Best Korean War movie.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is basically fiction, but it is a realistic account of the air war over Korea. The aircraft are authentic as the movie was made in 58. F-84Fs do a good job portraying the Mig-15s, and the Sabres are incredible as always. The Air Force put a great deal of effort in helping make this movie, and it was the fifties equivalent of "top Gun". Seeing this as a small boy with my dad on TV (he saw it in the theater in 58 when I was a yr old) is what prompted my life long interest in military aviation. It's a well done movie despite the few corny romantic scenes, and is well written with characters loosely based on actual pilots.
Summary of The Hunters
With its electrifying flight sequences and high-powered cast, The Hunters is a mesmerizing film based on the best-selling novel by veteran fighter pilot James Salter. Set during the height of the Korean War, the story centers on Major Cleve Saville (Robert Mitchum), a master of the newly operational F-86 Sabre fighter jets. But adept as he is at flying, Saville?s personal life takes a nosedive when he falls in love with his wingman?s (Lee Philips) beautiful wife (May Britt). To make matters worse, Saville must cope with a loud-mouthed rookie (Robert Wagner) in a daring rescue mission that threatens all their lives in this well-crafted war drama.Action & Adventure DVD Video
