An inspiring movie about a group of Americans who fought - and defeated - two enemies. This film is NOT a documentary, and does not claim to be, but is based on the real story of the 332 Fighter Group, the "Tuskegee Airmen" of World War II. As an engineer who has worked in fighter aviation for almost 40 years, the "ethos" of fighter pilots and ground crew was captured perfectly without being over the top. Having flown a Mustang, the operational and flying sequences were quite good and rarely struck me as CGI. Dramatically, the story line and subplots were quite good and kept the film moving along. We were also privileged to have two of the original Tuskegee Airmen (with their families) as guests of honor at our showing, and the audience spent over 1/2 hour after the film meeting, talking with, and taking pictures of the unassuming gentlemen.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
