P-51 Dragon Fighter

Please don't misunderstand me. This movie is just crap. Wonderfully so. Tarantino, Rodriguez, et al, eat your heart out. This was not an 'A' movie pretending to be a 'B' movie. It is most definitely just a 'B' movie. The best I've seen in at least a decade.

I downloaded it simply because I thought it might be an interesting 'B' movie (and no, I wouldn't have paid to see it - I will however try to pay them as a thank you though).

You know how it goes, sitting at home alone, family at a jazz festival, me working. Need some non thinking down time.

Have no expectations other than badly scripted, badly acted, nonsensical plot, but a wonderful representation of this second tier, cheap genre. Which I kind of expect was the producers point.

Just what I was looking for. The best nonsense I've watched in years.

Watched this without reading up here first, but somehow knew it had been ripped apart by ratings & reviews on here, as always, most likely by people who rate positive on mega million budget blockbuster garbage (x y z , or simply insert Aquaman here), or, to stay in the desert, any of those 100s of utterly badly acted & written modern desert war movies?

But hey, this little B movie, shot in California, with good acting actors, quirky script doesnt deserve that 2,**rating. Hence an 8 for a little boost. Seriously good fun watching!

AND it has Dragons ;)

But btw, producers: why call Erwin Rommel "Irwin"? ..did the Rommel family complain? Lol.

P-51's fighting dragons... It sure sounds like this is going to be one awesome film indeed. It is not though. This is a film you should save for when you are severely hungover. Or better yet, skip altogether. But at the same time, if you are one of those people that enjoy bad film's, this one is a must. It has everything a bad film need. Bad script, bad acting, cheesy story, horrible effects, you name it. If you are looking for realistic dog fighting scenes with the legendary P-51 fighting dragons, you will have to find it somewhere ells. This is not the kind of film that spends time or money on researching historical documents on old WW2 aircraft. This film sounds like it could be a masterpiece, but in the end its pretty much exactly what you expect. A low budget film that might entertain some people.

This, just like Mark Atkins other attempts (generally rip off's of other big movies in order to trick people into buying the DVD, "Jack the giant killer" is his perfect shameless example) is yet another flop in literally every way possible, there is literally no saving grace at all.

To cut a long story short, the directing, cinematography, writing and acting is all shocking. I watched it purely out of curiosity and I wish I could have that time if my life back. I am generally a very positive person and find "something" good on most things, but this is just abysmal - needless to say, don't bother.

I hafta share this gem. Dragon Fighter on Prime. Imagine P-51D Mustangs flying over North Africa! Not P-40 Warhawks!

I loved the premise of Nazi-controlled fire-breathing dragons engaging Allied fighters over the skies of N Africa, but had to laugh at the abjectly incorrect, out of place Mustangs.

The roundup of pilots is comical, too. The group includes pilots from the RAF and Free French. Of course such integration was NOT a factor in American fighter groups during Operation Torch in the skies of North Africa.

The armored personnel carrier conveying the sorceresses is bogus, too. Out of place vehicle.

Still, if one can get past these not-insignificant errors, the movie provides some worthy viewing.
