Rating:  - If it's French it must be meaningful...but not with Walk'n Marchelli and Fahrenheit Valois around
"Man, that brunette can take my joystick anytime!" says French fighter pilot Fahrenheit Valois to his buddy, Walk'n Marchelli. There is no evidence that Jean-Luc Godard ever had the courage to write dialogue this heartfelt, much less direct a movie that...gasp...was as entertaining. Sky Fighters (Les Chevaliers du Ciel) is a fightin', flyin' French film that shows Top Gun a thing or two. Not only is the acting better (Benoit Magimel stars as Walk'n Marchelli), but the movie was made with the full ... Read More
Rating:  - Fireball!!!
Forget about the plot (which could be confused with a porno), and you'll enjoy this film. The real stars of this movie are the airplanes and the excellent flying sequences. The women in this testosterone charged flick are as usual, treated like adult film stars so guys if your planning a bachelor party, you might want to sneak a peek. I'd recommend this movie as a Saturday night appetizer before viewing TOP GUN or BEHIND ENEMY LINES.
Rating: - Not too shabby!
I'm an airplane nut - always have been. A buddy of mine came across the French title for this movie Les Chevaliers du Ciel and sent me a Wikipedia link. Once I found the movie through my on-line delivery service, I ordered it.
And I liked it.
Granted, the plot is pretty weak and could've been much better developed, also from what I know of the French language the translations for the dubbed version are a little "off." Something that would sound good in French just doesn't ... Read More
Rating: - Sky Fighters
Think Top Gun with a Gallic twist. Impressive air to air action and photography, real - instead of CGI flying scenes, and best of all, no blatant violations of the laws of physics. Although the dialog is dbuued into English, the dubbing is done extremely well, and does not detract from the overall viewing experience.
I highly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoyed Top Gun for its flying scenes.
Rating:  - Fantastic Aerial Photography and a Weak, Not So Suspenceful Story
If you are interested in modern military airplanes, or want to enjoy the beautifully shot aerial photography, "Les Chevaliers du ciel" ("Sky Fighters") is a film for you. This French action film has plenty of flight scenes that are just exciting. Moreover, unlike some Hollywood films like `Stealth,' these scenes are not CGI.
Still I have to give only two stars to this because of its messy script that fails to make good use of the thrilling scenes. Don't get me wrong here because usually ... Read More
