Same as before, but w/ CGI

from Birmingham, AL
I saw the Tuskeegee airmen. I thought the movie came off as cheesy, and low budget. I thought the actors were all above the dialog, and the in-flight commentary sounded like a sound byte straight from the WWII propaganda films of the era.
When I saw the previews for Red Tails, the shots of the aerial combat scenes were what drew me to the movie. I was hoping that this movie would be different from the first, and w/ the talent in the movie was expecting a really different outcome.
I was wrong. W/ the exception of the CGI effects, (which were very cool) the actors all came off as campy ( especially the always pipe biting, half smiling character Cuba Gooding Jr. played)
The same "Take that pretty boy!", or "This ones for Lighning!" cockpit commentary was equally cheesy as it was in the first.
There was no Character development like there was in Saving Private Ryan, and because of that, it really didn't grab you emotionally.

If you want to see it better go now, I don't expect it to last beyond a few weeks.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
