Great aviation combat footage
A great World War 1 classic aviation movie. The aerial combat footage, done without any computer virtual reality animation is quite spectacular. The acting, especially from the european cast was quite good.

I probably was distracted from a deeper analysis due to the fact the...

Blue Max
I saw this when i was young in first release. After seeing now again i was not dissappointed. it's a long movie but seems short. Good action sequences refreshingly without CGI. If you like the genre, you will like this movie.

Blue Max a Winner
This is a very entertaining story of WWI air combat. The flight scenes are well done and the planes appear authentic. A young George Peppard plays the main character very well, with coldness and intensity as he competes with the wealthier aristocratic pilots who look down on him. The romantic...
