[WWI] Red Baron Movie...just an opinion...

[Joe Huntley]

I dunno I know theres a lot of copies going around the net but I also heard they decided not to put it out in the states for a while. I dont know why they wouldnt as there would be a big market here for it

          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.
