RUSTYMORLEY 162 Posted March 4, 2018 Yes I am definitely going to watch this one. Heard about it on the internet some time ago and it looks just as good as Battle of Britain (1969). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Battle of Britain is very well done, and of course no CGI! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capitaine Vengeur 263 Posted March 5, 2018 "Poland has not yet died, so long as we still live." The Polish anthem seems to have been written for guys like these... Even while, actually, the 303rd's best scorer during the BoB was a Czech. The Battle of Britain movie showed Poles thrown into battle while unsufficiently prepared: problems with keeping formations, with radio protocols, and lack of fluency in English (a sequence in the movie, when a Pole warned for the Hun behind him, checks above first). Their spontaneous recklessness owed them great successes, but also great losses. At least, there were used to be provided with the least efficient of the available foreign aircraft fighters: in the French service during Spring 1940, their national squadron was fitted with the greatly underpowered Caudron C.714 (500hp!!). As a result, they scored little and lost many, while the Free Czechs, scattered between the active French squadrons, scored much more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someday OcmbatACE should be big enough for such a comment to appear as an important critique they display when they're advertising an aviation movie. ... "The reviews are in" says deep movie voice guy "and CombatACE recommends you watch it because it's damned good." All kidding aside. You people know your stuff and I really watch it.

Snailman 517 Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) I was just about to post a notice of this film, but I see people found it already. Without any spoilers... it is an almost flawless movie. Maybe the only watchable war movie since Letter from Iwo Jima. Whoever did it managed to earn my respect. And that's really hard to get anyone knows me can confirm In short, it told whatever must be told about Polish pilots. Finally some respect shown - and the shameful sorrow aftermath. I wonder when Hollywood will produce something at least equally acceptable? Edited November 1, 2018 by Snailman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Erik 1,812 Posted November 2, 2018 Hollywood? Never. Two different philosophies of making movies. One is whatever makes the most money and this production by the Pols is whatever makes the best story that needs to be told. Definitely a must see! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
