Review of Warbirds (2008) by Darren M — 24 Feb 2009

This movie could have been pretty good but it's death was in the details. Small things like 2 dimensional characters, stiff writing, lacking computer graphics were some nitpics. But there were also some colossal mistakes.

1. Where are the smokes? In any WW II movie you always have people smoking because they really did smoke alot back then. 2. The girls lipstick and hair dos lasted way to long for a tropical island. 3. All that whining about the A bomb being a bad thing. Back then any American that heard of a bomb that could blow up a city would say "Hell, let's drop two!" and we did. 4. It was really stupid to expect anyone to believe that ANYTHING that flaps it's wings can travel at 300 MPH. And finally 5. The cover art shows several types of aircraft, NONE of which were used in the movie.
