I was so looking forward to this film but it turned out to be a really barebones movie. It has the smallest semblance of a plot, the actors are given nothing to work with and the tension is not really believable. The story turns out to be really dumb and have no payoff.
Its a fine movie that has mindless action with decent effects. Just good guys vs bad guys and robot goes rogue and then the crew has to fight the robot too.
It is no top gun, but it holds its own I guess. There is the wooden acting, cheesy dialogue and over-used clichés like the black guy dying and Russians being bad guys.
The best part about this movie has to be the set pieces, effects, locations and use of real explosions. The movie itself is really nice to look at, it just has no substance whatsoever, but that not what this movies is about.
I don't really have anything else to add except my review needs to be 600 characters long...

"Stealth" is a good, but not great action flick. It is about a team of 3 expert pilots who get a new pilot added to their squad. However it isn't an ordinary pilot, its a digital pilot. Its name is ed and the plane flies itself.
The computer graphics are eye candy and its hard to tell the difference between reality and the computer graphics. The story is very hard to follow and you might get lost if you don't pay close attention, however the action makes up for that. There is plenty of shooting and explosions to keep you on the edge of your seat through the entire movie.
Overall "Stealth" is an enjoyable movie.

'Short Circuit' meets 'Top Gun' in Rob Cohen's CGI-packed action-fest Stealth, in which a trio of ridiculously attractive elite US fighter pilots (Josh Lucas, Jamie Foxx and Jessica Biel) must do battle with the latest in aeronautical warfare technology—an Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV), flown by a computer called EDI, which goes haywire after it is struck by lightning.
Tearing out of the stratosphere at Mach Impossible to blast the crap out of anything that looks even the slightest bit foreign, the hi-tech aircraft in this film are about as stealthy as a herd of stampeding fluorescent pink elephants blowing vuvuzelas; they sure are cool looking though, and provide action fans with plenty of moments of spectacular mid-air madness, Cohen's virtual camera whipping in and around the state-of-the-art aircraft with as much speed and agility as the planes themselves.
Anyone looking for realism need not apply (the film's corny plot is about as believable as an email from a Nigerian businessman), but with endless huge explosions, a psychotic A.I. jet plane, Foxx ploughing into the side of a mountain, and gorgeous Jessica Biel in a bikini, those after some slam-bang, big-budget popcorn trash to give the old brain cells a rest could do a lot worse than Stealth.
6.5 out 10, rounded up to 7 for IMDb.

The picture concerns about two all-American boys(Josh Lucas, Jamie Foxx) and a brave girl(Jessica Biel).They are the best US Navy pilots and were chosen by Captain Cummins(Sam Shepard) to fly the latest marvel aircraft, Stealth fighter, called Talons, a supersonic fighting planes. They go behind world terrorists into Rangun and Kirghistan. Captain Cummins adds a new member to the team, an unmanned combat aerial vehicle that is being flown by a computer called Edi( voice of Wentworth Miller) with an artificial intelligence brain inside the cockpit and operated by a technician(Richard Roxburgh). But the exceptional Stealth is struck by a lightning and like HAL from ¨2001, Space Odyssey", starts to think for itself, rebelling against the humans. The trio ought to stop it , before begins WWIII.
This is a well produced and entertaining film though some moments is lamentably dull, for that reason is instantly forgettable trifle. The story of three valiant Lieutenants is much too-thin to sustain such a long movie. What's important here are the combats, shootings, airplane pursuits, flying sequences , among the best in the last time Hollywood history. Amazing computer generator FX are realized by Digital Domain, whose owner is James Cameron. Fantastic, memorable aerial cinematography by Deam Semler is the main asset of this silly story with stunning dogfighting and horrible disco-music by BT. Numerous films appear ¨Stealth¨, the next generation aircraft, as the production star, the first movie was ¨Firefox¨(Clint Eastwood)and two with Steven Seagal(Executive decision and Flight of fury) and several in B series, especially. The motion picture is lavishly produced by Neal Moritz and professionally directed by Rob Cohen, both are usual action movies experts. Rating : Acceptable and passable for its spectacular images.

- TriviaThe explosion in the Alaska airfield sequence used 500 gallons of gasoline. It was so big NASA had to be notified in advance.
- GoofsSurvival training must not have been a high priority for these elite pilots. Breaking radio silence over enemy territory to relay unimportant information and drawing attention to oneself while attempting to evade are just a couple of the errors these aviators make.
