KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
unclerae-1 Considering the slur's used against the Japanese that I have heard since I can remember, was one used in the movie. I have seen this movie from the time I was six years old. Toyko Joe having missed shooting down Col. Scott, hides in the clouds and sends his two wing men to get him. Col. Scott says to him over the radio,"You wait right up there Joe, while I play Dixie on these two buck tooth pals of yours." I was surprised it was never changed, dubbed over. I have always enjoyed Mr. Loo's acting in all the Charlie Chan movies as his # 2 son. The fact he did a comedic part made it worse when he showed up as the evil Tokyo Joe.
jackschlatter This story of great Americans who fought to preserve out safety and way of life, illustrates that like George Washington and all of the Founding Fathers..We must continue to believe in and have faith in the God that inspired the creators of this nation.. Alan Hale who plays the priest always amazed me. He could do broad comedy and then give heart touching performances as he does in this film. Before Charlton Heston, there was Raymond Massey who made a career of portraying historical characters beautifully. Finally Dennis Morgan who plays flying ace Scott made many great movies and this is one of them. Why he has become almost totally forgotten remains a mystery to me.. A wonderful, inspirational film..I totally recommend it.. John Wayne Schlatter
inspt71-1 God is my Co-Pilot is one of the best War Movies ever made. This movie was not available on Video for a while, and it was after fans have been screaming for it to come out on Video that it was finally released. Dennis Morgan plays Col. Robert Lee Scott, an Army Pilot who was looking for combat duty in World War II. He ends up in China with The Flying Tigers and flies with them on numerous missions. Richard Loo as "Tokyo Joe", a big mouth, over confident Japanese Fighter Pilot who communicates with his enemies over the radio and welcomes any chance to clash with Scott. This movie may not be as accurate as the book but it still a great movie with great combat scenes with P-40s and T-6 Texans as Japanese Zeros.
thebear-4 The actual story is a fascinating one - the Flying Tigers flying over the "Hump" of the Himalayas to resupply and support the Chinese fighting the Japanese Empire. And the dilemma of "Why do I survive?" is a wartime classic. Is is me, my skill, luck or is there a Higher Power watching over me? Some great moments especially with Raymond Massey as General Claire Chennault, the leader of the Tigers are deadened by mundane dialogue and plot.
