Whew!  Glad he is keeping our borders safe from miscreant WWI
enthusiasts...

Ironically I bought 10 extra copies of it while I was in Hong Kong ($2
each)...I was planning on giving them away free to fellow list members
here who were interested. But a customs officer at San Francisco
International Airport took all 10 extra copies from me. He said he did
not believe that I was going to give them away for free, that they must
have been merchandise to resell, that I failed to declare them as
merchandise on the customs form, etc. So he took them, left me with just
the one DVD.
Maybe he'll sell them on Ebay.

I picked it up in Hong Kong...I don't think it's here in the States yet.
It's well worth watching, and I would recommend it to all...it's just
that I thought large chunks of the story seemed to go nowhere (and I
stress that this is just my opinion of course). That being said, I
watched the dogfight scenes probably about 10 times already...so yes,
when available go buy it!

	I enjoyed the movie. I never dissect a movie or I would always
be disappointed. Instead I just watch for the entertainment factor.
overall I really liked it and thought it was a well done movie. I find
it on par with flyboys with the exception you dont have a long huge gap
in the middle with the boring love story drivel. the love story was
there but it was spread out throughout the movie. the only thing I didnt
care for was the way it ended. I think the fight should have been there
then cut to the ending they ad. other than that it was an enjoyable
movie

Last week I picked up the Red Baron DVD, and watched it last night. The
full size Albatros fighters are incredibly gorgeous, as are pretty much
all the aircraft in the film. I think they did a wonderful job on the
workings of Spandau mg's, the aerilons, etc...real eye candy. The (very
few) dogfight scenes are well done and kept me hooked. There are some
good actors and impressive visuals...but all of that amounts to about 15
minutes perhaps. The rest of the film was just plain boring and the
actor who portrayed Manfred was hardly likeable. Oh well...the aircraft
are still really really cool.
