Synopsis: Academy Awardr Winner Cuba Gooding Jr.* and Academy Awardr Nominee Terrence Howard** lead a powerful ensemble cast in this high-flying epic inspired by the real-life adventures of the first African-American combat unit to serve in World War II. Italy, 1944. As the war takes its toll on Allied forces in Europe, a squadron of black pilots known as the Tuskegee Airmen are finally given the chance to prove themselves in the sky...even as they battle discrimination on the ground. Featuring jaw-dropping aerial action and thrilling special effects, Red Tails is a breathtaking tribute to the unsung heroes who rose above extraordinary challenges and ultimately soared into history.

Review: This film is a focus around four pilots of the first African American flight squad, during WWII.   This is the kind of film that could come off as pandering, but does a great job of mixing the action of great flight sequences with the tale of this legendary crew.  The cast is there, although I can't stand Terrence Howard, he does turn in a good performance.  I much prefer Cuba Gooding, Jr., who is not only sincere, but fantastic.  This one has great choreography, especially in the action sequences.  This one is definately worth the watch.
