RED TAILS (Theatrical Release USA 2012)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.2|5.0 Starsìììì

Red Tails quickly turns into an above average war movie watch with its terrific and memorable flying scenes, daring sky manuevers, and reliance on bringing some little known World War II history to the forefront of public consciousness. The movie introduces several new black actors for 2012 as well as tapping veteran actors like Cuba Gooding Jr. The film deserves its watch. Watch for Brian Cranston in this film.
