Cleared for Takeoff
For Father's Day, the kids bought the DVD for Fly Boys. I watched it last night.
I thought it was pretty good. After hearing bad comments about the movie, my expectations were pretty low.
What usually kills war movies is the need for the romance. But this movie kept the "romance" part close to the airplanes.
I did not mind the computer animation. For most kids, the images of the WWI conflict do not exist. This conflict in trenches should not be forgotten.
Those who support war would like people to forget how horrible that it is. These vivid images remind us that "war, huh,...what is it good for? Absolutely nuttin!"
