The movie is stupid and bad beyond concepts. The acting is unreal. Mario van Peebles should be banned from making films or acting anywhere in the world!
I am so sad.
In top gun they did not had real mig-s, they used american F5 instead. It did not look real. But was good movie.
Red sky did had access to real russian Su 27UB planes. It was great! It was so much they could do with this!
But what did we get???? Basic american superhero story! Cmon!!!
Air fights ware patetic!! They have mostly gunfigts...like it is WWII...jeez. Gun on moden jet is there for a backup at best. Not primary weapon.
And american pilots knew how to fly Su 27 after just 1 flight with it (it take few months to get just basic training in to new fighter jet). As i said typical american superhero!
They could do so much with russian pilots and Su27 and skip that pointles rainmaker story. They could give us more relationships between american and russian pilots. Real one...no superhero crap.
And better coordinated air fights.
Could be top gun with russian accent (Su 27 and some russian pilots in the mix).
But no!
We got movie with 80-s script, modern,cheap look and epic russian fighter jet in the mix.

The plot I believe is the result of something hastily slapped together,for a direct to video release. It contains a bunch of people who can't act to save their life.
Aside from Bill Pullman who must be really in need of money,and look very out of place. You have the usual stereotype character the good looking cool guy.Who fly fighter planes just wearing a leather jacket and a helmet. the not so good looking and so on.
They have stolen a bit from other airplane movies.I Recognize a few scenes here and there,borrowed from movies in the 80 and 90s.Like a good portion of the storyline. I can clearly see stuff like Iron eagle,flight of the intruder,and a dozen others
Some of the plane scenes are clearly computer animated.Quite badly too. Others are just hilariously bad filmed. When they fly low over the rooftops in Moscow, underneath a grey and overcast sky.Yet every inside shot from the cockpit show they are above the clouds, with clouds underneath a clear blue sky above.
Lest not forget the constant re-shot they use.I could count at least 3- 4 scenes that were being reused in the film
Mario Van peebles are not believable as a CIA agent.You actually start laughing at him, cause he's o out of place.It look like he's been picked up from a bad 80 action flick.
And the all over acting leaves a lot to be desired. Rachael Leigh cook look like she have no idea what her part is suppose to bring to the movie,in mostly every scene that's not one on one,she look lost,and totally clueless of why she's there

Can any one give me a reason not to watch this movie not much of a storyline but the plane the missiles its looks so real its just a movie you watch when hungry and your stomach gets filled up at once. You just gotta love it. its got a great story line perfect pictures sweet punch lines as for me its a pass mark i love it and wish to view more.. I've got no problem with the movie its so awesome check it out and you wont be sorry. Nice stunts nice shootings God,its a nice start for 2014 as for me i wouldn't give it a 10 because there was to much of talking at a time but it picked up along the line and it was sweet And if you got a problem with that you just gotta have to tweet me on twitter @iamowomizz and lets sort it out.
Finding a way to turn back to golden days...Air combat...Fighters...Guns...All of them attract me in first time to see this movie. I expected the director and his team knew that when they should cut off rapping and adding complexity to story. But till the mid of the movie parallel stories and artificial acts resumed. But now i don't talk about story line or Drama's problems, But i want to say how much i wondered when i saw Iranian's military. So i summarize the goofs: 1- Iran have two military forces: Army and " SEPAH". There was no sign of them in the movie. 2- Iranian's soldiers and Their acts was unreal and ridiculous. 3- Military base in Nakhjivan with Azeri peoples seems fake. 4- Cars in Tabriz City ( Iran) never have such layout and you cant find such a car that be used.
Iranian's are not Arab and until Hollywood resist to attention to it, every movie makes about Iran is unreal and goofy.

Did you know
- TriviaWhen doing the "HAHO" drop, they jumped from a JU-52, a German pre-WWII tri-motor fixed undercarriage airplane! There are only one of these flying. Very doubtful that Lufthansa would lend it to anyone for such a stunt.
- Goofsin the scene where they escape in the bi-plane one of the crew is shot in the right foot and the Russian Lady Pilot dresses the wound. when he excites the plane his left foot is bandaged...
