Good aerial combat scenes

Rating: 10/10 (4 August 2017)

If you are passionate of historical aviation, you'll love this excellent war movie. Forget the ridiculous and unrealistic stunts of "Red Tails" or "Flyboys". Here the flight scenes are absolutely well done and credible and fit perfectly in the plot. Just a couple of remarks, though: in the close up scenes of the pilot in the cockpit the light and the shadows should turn when the plane is manoeuvring in a dogfight; He-111 planes attacking targets at low altitude are quite unlikely, Do-17 or Ju-88 were a better choice...and in the scenes filmed with the POV from the wing of the Spit the engine doesn't look like a RR-Merlin, which gave a distinct shape to the nose. However, these are minor details and the film is very good. Great show.
