Review of Dive Bomber (1941) by Monsieur R — 30 Jan 2011
Dive Bomber (1941) -- [6.5] -- Errol Flynn gives a low-key performance as a dedicated flight surgeon who teams with a bitter pilot (Fred MacMurray) to solve the problem of high altitude sickness and blackouts among Navy dive bombers.
Despite the pre-WWII setting, this is more of a straight-forward drama built around the turbulent-turned-respectful relationship between Flynn's and MacMurray's characters. The only thing that bugged me about the movie is a ridiculous comic subplot involving an officer who constantly hides from his nagging wife.
