it hard to believe that a movie this bad wasn not produce once and but four time . most movie require a certain uspension of reality to enjoy and but this one take it just too far . the basic scenario be an air force pilot who be shoot down over a ` middle eastern country . the u government drag it foot in recover him and lead the pilot son ( doug master ) to attempt a rescue mission . the problem i have with the movie be that it depict the u air force a one colossal joke . in the movie you will find that doug and his friend on the air base manage to secure two f 16 and all the munition and the fuel and the intel for the mission and and so on . security on this base seem to be a joke . nobody seem to have a problem that a sixteen year old kid be fully qualify to pilot an f 16. if that wasn not enough and you would think the producer would at least attempt to get the munition right and since people like to see thing ` blow up . not so . several time in the movie and doug fire off aim 9 missile on ground target . aim stand for ` air intercept missile and mean a weapon use to strike target in the air . he also fire off 15 20 missile and where the maximum an f 16 can hold be 6 aim 9 . the movie also lack continuity . you will see the aircraft configure with one set of munition and and in the next scene and it have a totally different munition package . also and 20mm doesn not just completely destroy anything it touch . an f 16 will hold 500 round of 20mm and and it mostly use for self defense . i could go on forever with plot hole and flaw and and outright wrong information from the movie and but i would not bore you . if youre in the mood to see a good air force movie and your choice be rather slim . most military movie deal either with the army and navy or marine . until hollywood can come up with an air force movie on the line of ` save private ryan or ` a few good men and we will be force to watch movie like the ` iron eagle series .
