P-51 Dragon Fighter

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.

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 This is not the kind of film that spends time or money on researching historical documents on old WW2 aircraft.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.

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.

Somewhere in Northern Africa, back in WW II. Nazis discovered dragon eggs, raised many grown up dragons a little later, and hire four witches to control the dragons by psychic powers. Then they attack allied forces, planes and tanks are destroyed by the fire of the mythic beasts, until a British general develops a cunning plan: shoot back...

Another trash movie from director Mark Atkins I remember best for 'Princess of Mars' and 'Sand Sharks'. The budget was obviously very low, for example the pilots in the cockpits are always shown in a close-up with a narrow focus range against a blue studio background, so nobody can see interior details of the planes. The acting is ridiculous, just for example take the the French pilot. Well, you knew from the subject of 'Dragons vs. Planes' it wouldn't be Shakespeare, still this is entertainment on a very modest level. The fantasy element of the co-operating witches is interesting, but will work better in a different background, i.e. a pure fantasy movie. The best scene of this movie was, which is telling a lot, the drinking contest. Maybe I'll recommend the same to 2 people I really don't like some time.

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.
