Flyboys

Porn for people who get off on corny shit,

I don't remember anything about this film, which is a bad thing.

Can't understand all the bad reviews at all. Great movie.

One of my Dads favourite films. An instant sign to tell you it is total shit.

Charmingly and endearingly old fashioned war film takes a page from the John Wayne war movie canon to put on a fun show, though I don't think the Duke would have lapsed into the cornball sentimental romance which dominates the second act; I'm a fighter plane anti-expert, but the CGI-d dogfights didn't look quite realistic to me! Still sort of irresistible for a while, especially as the carefully ethnically diverse team are training and getting to know each other. Good fun, warts and all.

1.Dünya savaşında, yeni pilot olan 6 gencin hikayesi. Filmin özetini 1 cümlede anlatıyor. Filmin ortalarında öyle saçma bir sahne var ki, bütün sihiri bozuluyor. James Franco bile kurtaramamış. Güzel uçak sahneleri var. Filmin sonunda, meşhur zeplin sahnesi ve siyah uçağın intikamı alınmış. Gerçek 1 olaydan uyarlanamamış. Aslan gibi aslan gibi geliyorum işte aslan gibi. Gelme lan gelme.

The heroics of the American flying aces of World War I are little known to many of us nearly a century later. And this relatively restrained film (for a war actioner in a post-Saving Private Ryan moviemaking world), does a superior job of reviving interest in and respect for these brave men and their captivating era.

Passes the time.

What a total garbage, this movie is so commercial and obvious it hurts, think of every stereotype of this kind of movie and you would be short.

True to it's title, it sort of flies between propaganda film and a movie that tries to show the horrors of war. Still, I enjoyed it.

"Flyboys may be inspired by true events, but director Tony Bill's evocation of an air squadron's exploits during WWI is a sham no amount of droopy-dog posturing by James Franco can alleviate." - Ed Gonzalez

Why was every airplane the Red Baron? This doesn't make sense. I'm not a huge stickler for historical accuracy, but there was nothing to learn or to be grounded to reality with in this movie. And James Franco's accent was in about every other scene. And there was a tiger in the mansion. And everyone learned a lesson in the end. Because if WW1 is known for anything, it's for the moral lessons. If you're ever caught wondering "why do people hate Hollywood movies again?" think of Flyboys.

An historically inaccurate disaster of a movie with crappy CGI, bad acting and a romance story that goes nowhere. Supposed to be based on a true story, but I can't figure out if the ending is a mocking joke or a tribute.

I've learned that pilots had it easy compared to the grunts in the trenches. For guys that get to live in a mansion with a freaking lion and fly around as "kinghts" in the skies, they sure do whine a lot. I'm glad they didn't volunteer for the trenches. I can't imagine the the whining if they had to endure trech foot and constant shelling not to mention gas attacks and rats. Despite the total inaccuracy, melodrama, and the paint by numbers plot, I can still think of worse ways to spend my time.

Could have been so much better.

As much as I like James Franco and Martin Henderson, apart from the eye candy this film had absolutely nothing going for it. Nothing.

A story set in WW1, an era largely untouched by Hollywood. There were some criticism of historical inaccuracy. The tendency of Hollywood to introduce a romantic subplot into every film nearly destroyed this one...

A waste of the talents of Franco and Reno and one of the most disgustingly awful films I've ever had the displeasure of seeing.

World War One is one of my favorite subjects to research so naturally this movie made me sick to my goddamn stomach. Fucking A

Mhmm.

Had a great amount of potential, but turned out to be the worst work of 06.

not so good

Great potential but they didn't even try to do this properly, let alone succeed.

Could have been better.

What the hell, James Franco the new James Dean ???? After seeing this movie I can assure you that's not the case. ... The film is supposed to be based on a true story, but for some reason the script and the bad acting takes the magic out of it. ... Try harder Tony Bill !!!!
