Los amos del aire

This series takes the viewer from the B-17's flying from the US to Greenland and then on to England. BoB started with the training of Easy Co in GA. Pacific was similar to BoB. I felt like we missed out on knowing the characters here because they were just dumped on us and two of them were majors. I felt like I missed a couple of episodes and couldn't get caught up. I never got past the knowledge of the three or four main characters. The others all seemed alike and I couldn't differentiate them. The Tuskegee Airman seemed like an afterthought, but I'm glad they included them even though they weren't in the Eighth AF. Some people complain about CGI. I thought it was remarkable and I can't think of any other way it could have been done. Some reviewers have a problem with how the Brits were portrayed. I thought they were shown to be brave and resilient. Still, movies like this are a national treasure. The Eighth AF represents all our heroes who fought in the skies over Germany and Japan. The movie made sure the viewers knew Germany was pure evil in its intentions to conquer and subjugate the world. I would give BoB a 10, Pacific a 9, and this a solid 8.

First of all let me start by saying that from a cinematic perspective this serie was beautifully made. The color grading was very nicely done. The actors however stayed a bit on the surface. I felt a bit of a lack of depth in the characters. I think It might be due to the many storylines.

The thing that annoyed me most though was the inaccuracy of facts. It made it appear that the RAF only had posh airmen while most of them came from working class families. And the dates and timing during the cours of the war was a little "played" with.

As a born and raised European the history of World War Two is embedded in our (school)system by our parents and grandparents who lived through the war and got in some ways traumatized by it.

Therefore doing a series about an important part of our past should be mindful of the few still alive by being accurate.

Masters of the Air is every bit as good as I hoped it would be. There are a ton of war movies and series to choose from so if you're going to take the time to watch one it would have to be pretty special and stick out from the rest. Well, Masters of the Air definitely does that. Watching this is worth every second. This is a star studded cast both in front and behind the camera. It's produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, the same two who made the perfect Band of Brothers. The cast is also amazing. It stars a pair of Oscar nominees from last year in Austin Butler and Barry Keoghan, it also stars a handful of up and coming stars in Callum Turner, Anthony Boyle, Nate Mann, etc. The story takes place during World War II. It's about the airmen who risk their lives and the brotherhood of the 100th Bomb Group. This has the feel and look of a big blockbuster summer movie. You can tell Apple put in a lot of money into this and it's beautiful. Just make sure you put enough time aside before you start because you're going to want to binge it as fast as you can.

I was quite excited by this new series with Spielberg and co at the helm. But after a few episodes the script took a turn for the worse, why belittle the RAF making out they are some toff graduates from Oxford or Cambridge, quite embarrassing really. Of course the Americans are the only heros in this, utter BS. Spielberg is a f?@king numpty. There were many brave men from all sides but as always the yanks saved the day single handedly where the RAF were buffoons. We all know the British have the best armed services in the world and between me and you the yanks are somewhat jealous, so they try and make themselves look better. Spielberg yawn off.

This show was beautiful and heartbreaking.

The costumes were prefect.

All the actors were so professional and believeable, it was easy to forget I was watching a show.

I got sucked in and didn't come back out until it was over and then I watched it two more times.

The depiction of what the men went through was astounding.

The action scenes were so intense I could feel it in my chest.

They were gut wrenching and horrific.

I could never have imagine how terrifying it must have been for the men who really went through this.

It was a beautiful honor and tribute to the Airforce Men, who fought and died, in World War II.
