Great flight scenes. The love angle is contained (never welcome in any military film if you ask me).
A great film, well worth the money.

This is a film for die-hard John Wayne fans only. A very weak story and not much flying. Not worth seeing, try something else. Not one of his better films. Set during the height of the cold war, a Russian aircraft enters U.S. airspace and lands at a USAF airbase where JW appears to be the senior officer. The pilot is female and claims asylum. She is treated to a number of flights in USAF aircraft and after a short period it is decided to repatriate her. Wayne marries her in an attempt toallow her to stay in the US and discovers she is a spy. He tehen flies back to Russia to do some spying back when the dastardly Russians start slowly poisoning him. His 'wife' discovers this and they both steal an aircraft and make good their escape back to the US.
Wayne made many better films and only Ghenghis Khan challenges this one for bottom place.

If you enjoy John Wayne movies, you'll enjoy this one. If, in addition, you enjoy good flying sequences, this one is for you. In many ways it's a typical John Wayne movie set in different circumstances. However, to me, this is what movies are all about - you can just sit back, relax and enjoy. There's nothing taxing in the material but it's an enjoyable view and, as usually used to be the case, you don't have to worry about pieces included which might be deemed unsuitable for children.
