Certainly deserving of a higher rating than around 5
Especially as it's a film based on a true story about a real World War 2 brave fighter pilot. Yes it's a low budget movie and the acting was just average but the battle scenes were okay
What worked for me the most was I knew nothing before watching this about Paddy Finucane so it was educational and I think we need to see more films about little known hero's like him from from both World Wars as it's important that there are permanent reminders to all what these brave men and woman sacrificed for our freedom
So well done to the film makers here who brought his story to the screen.

Yes the film is on a tight budget, actors I have never heard of, some dodge CGI mind you not as bad as Die Another Day.
I had never heard of Brendan Finucane before, I live near Hornchurch and never knew their was a wing based their.
The best thing about this film was the "Story" a true story, I learnt some info about Spits and a lot about Hornchurch and loads about this amazing young man.
To lose his life the way he did, heartbreaking even worse for Bluie who lost his life after the war doing a training mission.
The battle scenes are Ok, yes it's not Top Gun Marvel quality and maybe some shots are not the right spits But it's a decent film, not perfect, but does not deserve the hate.
Maybe this film is about the past and what we can learn from it, the youth of today should remember this: "For your tomorrow, We gave our today" This is why we must never forget the sacrifice these men and women made for us to have our freedom today.

Wing Commander Brendan "Paddy" Finucane was one of the distinguished fighter aces of WW2, yet today he's been all but forgotten, but for the most avid aviation fanatic.
As this visually stunning and very moving film shows, he was a remarkable young man (the youngest Wing Commander ever to serve in the RAF). Under the adept direction of Dominic and Ian Higgins, the cast delivers commendable performances breathing life into Finucane's story.
The battle sequences are nothing short of breathtaking, capturing the chaos, intensity, and adrenaline of wartime. I found myself physically drained just from watching them-it was as if I were right there in the thick of the action. The music score is another standout, adding a layer of emotional power without overpowering the scenes.
I have read that the filmmakers wanted to hark back to an earlier time of filmmaking, and I would say they have achieved that, it felt like a movie from the "golden age" of cinema, a classic war time weepy - yes, you'll need a hanky or too when you watch it!
A great film about a great man.

A great film about a great man.
Sure it's low budget, unknown actors, tries to get lots of context into the story, relies on cheap but effective visuals and is'nt up its own backside.
Simple, straightforward, not making points about stuff that's got nothing to do with anything.
Reminds me of a 1950's movie where you watch and munch the popcorn and have an enjoyable tale told well that keeps up the pace and interest till the end of the show. The acting was good, just playing their parts.
I got really bored with planet of the apes,dune and other mega long, shiny, squillion dollar movies as they repeat the same story and the semi ok stars dominate...I want movies like this.... Honest film making!

Considering the low budget and made by an independent company, this is a pretty impressive film. It covers the early life, through to the Battle of Britain experience of Brendan Finucane. Yes there is CGI but considering the cost to hire and fly real Spitfires or even build one, the CGI elements are fine. There is plenty of action, and at times some graphic scenes but not over the top.
I recommend the film, especially if your interested in the history of the period. It doesn't bog you down with statistics, but specifically focuses on Finucane, his squadron and at times his family. If your interested in a very brief history between Ireland and Britain then that box is ticked also.

- CuriosidadesAccording to contemporary estimates, 50,000 to 70,000 Irish people joined the British forces during World War II, despite Ireland's official neutrality in the conflict. Some sources, including a snippet at the start of the film, state that over 80,000 Irish-born men and women served in the British armed forces.
