My Review of the film Red Tails the Film


Red Tails,
At first I did not understand why everyone was talking about this film. Yes, it is important, but to make it seem like if people don’t support it, there would be no future for Black Cinema. I feel that is so hard fro anyone to get a film made in Hollywood black/white. In reference to the story, The Tuskegee Airmen were serious heroes, on a number of levels. They deserve a serious movie. "Red Tails" in some way was that movie. A lack of irony should be refreshing, even thrilling, but 'Red Tails' is very dull, in a way that has become a Lucas trademark. The Tuskegee Airmen deserve a more memorable and moving tribute than this. Red Tails seems interested in teaching viewers about Tuskegee Airmen, but as far as, that something is missing that makes the story/script come out very stale and dry.
