This is an impressively bad film! However, as the CGI airplane fights are fun, I gave it a 2 instead of a well deserving 1. I never expected to see Bruce Willis in such a low standards film, but I guess the international economic crisis is forcing stars of old, to become more "flexible".
This movie is about the fight of the Chinese against the evil Japanese. The true crime though is the terrible acting, direction and script. In my humble opinion one can make a great movie with only one cheap camera as long as there are a few good actors and a good solid script.
Bruce Willis can not make up for the luck of script guys.
Next time pay for better writers instead.
The only reason why I watched this movie cause of the big name A list Actor/Actress. The acting and script are horrible. B Movie with huge A list stars.
Here are the 8 A list Actor/Actress:
1.Bruce Willis: 2.Fan Bingbing: (Since 2013, Fan has been listed as the highest-paid celebrity in the Forbes China Celebrity 100 list for four years in a row after ranking in the top 10 every year since 2006.)
3.Adrien Brody: 4.Janine Chang: Hot Actress 5.Nicholas Tse: 6.Niki Chow: Hot Actress 7.Simon Yam: 8.Ray Lui:

If you title your movie 'Airstrike' then you better get the cgi right, this fails miserably in this dept. Aside from the trailer pretty much explaining everything and how predictable this is, it's cringeworthy in many places. Let's kick some ass indeed.
But don't take my word for it, watch the trailer, it sums it up well.
No doubt the Chinese could do better with their own history.
Screen play. Steerike ooone! Acting. Steerike twooo! CGI. Steerike threeee. OUT! Bruce Willis has gone from Unbreakable to Unwatchable. Adrien Brody should have his Academy Award confiscated. I tried fast-forwarding to the good parts. There weren't any. This film is so bad, it made me nostalgic for Pearl Harbor! The worst part: My girlfriend can't get her dollar back from Redbox.
I wonder what bruce Willis was paid for this poorly directed, badly acted and jarringly edited film. From B grade animations, to woefully boring dialogue, The Strike is moore like The Miss, real bomb of a movie....three stars

- TriviaThe original cut of the movie ran over 5 hours.
- GoofsThe Japanese bomber pilot says to open bomb bay doors. Shots of the plane's exterior show bombs attached directly to the fuselage and no bomb bay doors to open. The Japanese bombers have internal bomb bays which needed to be opened and bombs carried externally.
- Alternate versionsThe US release, re-titled "Air Strike", is cut by 25 minutes from the original 121-minute Chinese version. It also dubs all the Chinese language sections of the film. Other releases, such as the UK (under the title "The Bombing"), feature the original version with part-English, part-Chinese dialogue.
