    1944. World War II rages and the fate of the free world hangs in the balance. Meanwhile the black pilots of the experimental Tuskegee training program are courageously waging two wars at once – one against enemies overseas, and the other against discrimination within the military and back home. Racial prejudices have long held ace airman Martin Easy Julian (Nate Parker) and his black pilots back at base - leaving them with little to do but further hone their flying skills - while their white counterparts are shipped out to combat after a mere three months of training. Mistakenly deemed inferior and assigned only second-rate planes and missions, the pilots of Tuskegee have mastered the skies with ease but have not been granted the opportunity to truly spread their wings.

    Okay if you have not seen this movie. I have no idea where you have been. It is a great family movie not more violence than a video game.. I will be adding this to the dvd collections..

    Not perfect but historical none the less. Where else are the youth hearing this story. Not at school and unfortuntately, not at home. Could it have been developed more, yes, but I enjoyed the movie both times that I saw it. It was great that several senior citizens were in the audience. You rarely see them out in mass for a movie. I give it a strong thumbs up. Someone has to tell our stories. I applaud the movie. Red Tails..... we fight, we fight, we fight!

    I enjoyed it. It wasn't perfect, but my expectations are so low nowadays. I wasn't disappointed at parts that were slow or moments where dialogue/acting could have been better. Yes, those things do matter, but in the overall rating of the movie I would still give it a 6.5-7. Those few bad moments weren't so horrible as to take away from the entire movie. I still had a good time. I still felt a part of a story. I am happy that I went. No buyer's remorse here. I will buy it on DVD.
