Older and somewhat colloquial but entertaining and based on fact and uses "real" aircaft of the period. Better than many more north amaerican efforts especially those south of the Canadian divide. The acting is good and they even managed to slide in some controversial issues without 'woking' them to death as is the current fashion. Good movie IMO.
The main characters lack any real connection abd there is no "sizzle" as in the earlier series. The other issue is that the whole series looks like it was filmed throough a grey filter, dark and moody is fine but dark and moody is hard to see onnthe screen and adds nothing to the show. I also don't see why you would do a remake when there are so many new and unfilmed options available.
Good story and quite well done but really lacks a lot of detail and doesn't cover many of the sub stories that would have made it a really good film.
Don't watch it on streaming service (ie Prime) as they chop the ending off - why????
I have noticed this trend by streaming services of editing and cutting films - presumable for woke/timing/other reasons but they do not tell you they have cut the film, very annoying another layer of censorship by those in control....
