    Interesting! I'll definitely see it, although the spot where the P-51 is sticking on the tail of the Me-262 is rather interesting. -262 musta been standing on the brakes! Also interesting to see Cuba Gooding Jr. in this one, too.

    got this from a gaming forum i belong to. a lot of the dogfight scenes are CG but there are some scenes where actaul 51s were used. in this clip you will see one of the versions of anderson's old crow getting her "make-up" taken of and being returned to her original glory.

    The Me262 was not a dogfighter...it's best tool in a fight was it's speed and that was best used to climb out of harm's way and clear the area. To get into a turning fight was simply asking for death and so shooting down a Me262 wasn't actually all that noteworthy to be honest.

    Not to spoil it for anyone...but we caught Red Tails on opening day today and this was one of the best WW2 films i have ever seen! Highly suggest seeing this movie on the big screen just phenominal. George Lucas & Red Tails - 5 Stars!!!!!

    To those who served and to those who did not return home thank you and God Bless our veterans.

    They fought for us and a better world never forget them.

    I saw it too. I liked it. Some of the aerial maneuvering was a little over the top, which kinda bugged me, but that's to be expected, I guess. As far as accuracy, I dunno. It's pretty much the same as the 1995 film, only CGI replaces guncam footage, you know, shooting up trains, attacking an airfield, the attack on the destroyer, 3 me-262's being shot down. Nothing really new there...

    Agreed about wanting to see it for the entertainment factor...and I do think it will deliver in that regard. My biggest concern with movies based on real historical events is how this may substitute real knowledge of our history for young people.
    But I'll also see it to support a WWII film in the naive hope they may make others.
