I enjoyed the performances from Iwan Rheon and Stefanie Martini, but extraordinarily clunky CGI and the reliance on the old "I'll translate this crazy Englishman as saying something humorous" got tiring quite quickly.September 07, 2018
Rheon makes a persuasive lead as pilot Jan Zumbach despite having to perform half of his lines in subtitled Polish.September 06, 2018
It's an old-fashioned boy's own tale, with the accent on boys - an attempt to widen the focus to the women working behind the scenes backfires slightly...Still, the story of the Polish pilots deserves to be told.September 04, 2018
A niche film for World War II buffs, Polish patriots and air display patrons. Not exactly subtle, but few war films are - and it's hard not to get caught up in fighting these old battles.September 06, 2018
Director David Blair navigates the whole thing through the storm with watchable competence.
