Jet Pilot | Year: 1957 Classification: Action/Adventure Directed: - Josef von Sternberg - Jules Furthman Actors/Actresses: - John Wayne - Janet Leigh 5 Stars for the Magnificent Flying Scenes....ONLY! I have to agree with the previous reviews, if you love the F-86 and other airplanes from that era, you will truly enjoy the flying scenes in this film. They alone, make it worth owning.<BR>It is true that Howard Hughs' passion for flight comes through loud and clear. This film makes you want to run out to the nearest airport and take off on your own. The story line makes no sense at all, but for the pure love of flight...it's worth adding to your library! Great for aircraft, awful movie- This is a two edge sword, if you are buying it for the aircraft you won't be disappointed. <BR>Lots of T-33s, F-86s and a wonderful sequence of intercepting a B-36 in an F-94 (something that would have required cooperation of the B-36 in real life)<BR>If you love camp, you will also not be disappointed, but as a movie, it is pretty awful, but if you close your eyes until you hear engine noise, it is'nt too bad Great flying scenes, awful movie The flying scenes in this movie are wonderful. The F-86 was an awsome plane and this movie has plenty of F-86 action. But it barely makes up for the pathetic story line. It's unbelievable and gets down right stupid, definitely NOT one of John Wayne's better movies. I would recommend this movie only to those who really like watching '50's era planes, make sure you have your remote handy.
