John Wayne is the leader of a squadron of American pilots-for-hire in China, pre-Pearl Harbor. The men are wildly outnumbered by the Japanese, and also deal with difficulties within their own ranks. (official distributor synopsis)
Reviews (1)
A film classic with John Wayne, playing a proper guy. Not with a cowboy hat, but rather in an aviator's uniform. The guys here engage in aerial dogfights, not only fighting for their lives but also for honor. There's some emotion in it, but it's so straightforward it's almost annoying. If you don't like the Duke, skip this one. If you do like him, this film still won't give you anything substantial.
