The 109's were not marked correctly. The theater bands should be white not yellow. Yellow bands are for the eastern front. The bombers were not marked correctly also. The markings were for 8th Air Force. The maintainers were falsely represented. I'm a retired Air Force maintainer and I've done a few tours in the sand box. I don't care if it's -50 or 150 degrees we work the aircraft. I've done 8hr shifts and I've done 48 hour plus shifts. The only thing that's acceptable is fix the bird.

July, 1943. US bomber squadrons are bombing Sicily in preparation for the Allies' invasion. One such bomber is the Lucky Lass, a B- 17. When her commander is killed, the co-pilot, Lt. Wally McAllister, is given command of the plane. A rookie co-pilot, 2nd Lt. Mike Schmidt, joins the crew. Schmidt immediately alienates himself by not joining in and making some very basic errors on missions. Now he must regain their trust and support...Amateurish in just about every way. Story is quite basic, clumsy and predictable. Direction is paint-by-numbers stuff, with no attempt at engaging the audience or anything approaching grittiness. Performances are hammy at best, and generally quite cringeworthy. Even the CGI, which in 2012 should be an easy tick, feels like something from a video game, and not a very good one.However, decent enough battle scenes though, and a reasonably powerful final few scenes, make this not a total write-off. Still not worth watching though.

This was no Oscar winner, and the story played like a bunch of thrown together scenes from a diary. The acting was mediocre to poor, even the few talents I recognized didn't elevate the status quo. What I was amazed at were that the special effects were so superior for a low budget movie. I read that all of the plains were digital as they couldn't afford to have real planes. You could have fooled me, the plains looked plenty real. The aerial battles were superior, and I hope the company that did the SFx has a lot of success...they deserve it.

This film was clearly made on a shoe string budget.The sets.The CGI. No stars, or even close to stars, and guys that seemed to just recently gotten into the biz'....Yet...It works.Excellent action sequences that pull you in right from the start, and finish the movie with the best of it.Is a little slow after the beginning, but that part really fleshes out the characters in it, with excellent character development which shines through at the conclusion.No this is not "SAVEING PRIVATE RYAN", but this script and story line deserved more of a budget. I do not blame the producers for that, I blame Hollywood. Unless you are "Steven Spielberg", WW2 films are passé...interests are elsewhere. No comment.The film has been completely ignored by the "Premium" satellite channels, such as HBO etc... When I think of the total crap they air, at my expense, then disrespect something like this 2011 film it really pisses me off.The only way I was able to view this was that for a short period last year, some one up loaded a very poor technical quality copy of it to YouTube. What little I could make of it really intrigued me though, and I bought the DVD.It was well worth the money.Thank you, JASON MCKINLEY, BRIAN THOMPSON, ADAM KLEIN, and Jerry Buteyn for producing this film and getting it out there. BAYYOU PICTURES ROCKS!! By the way, for the haters, watch the closing credits of the movie. They had the foresight to address you in advance. Here is an internet thank you though. Great little film.
