Plot

Aspiring plots come from the four corner of the Earth to fight in the European Theater during World War I.

 

Character Development

There is only a slight range of development, but growth is predictable. Much of the focus is place on the unrealistic difference placed on the new flyboy. Their backgrounds are so different, only the working a Hollywood script could master. This creates conflict which can only be overlooked if the viewer can suspend their level of disbelief. 

 

Acting

Good acting all around. Tries to be serious, but end up better a little cartoonish around the edges.

 

Overview

Overall this is an enjoyable picture. There were some problems with the level of realism where certain artistic liberties were taken, but a lot of good work can be found here. It is possibly not worth the purchase price for repeat viewing. Once around the block should be enough.
