Red Tails ** Red Tails George Lucas produced this action movie about Tuskegee Airmen stationed in Italy during World War II. This is a story people have waiting decades to see, so it's no fun feeling responsible to run out and see a movie that isn't very good. It means well, but it's too basic to be rousing or even heartening. Directed by Anthony Hemingway. With Nate Parker, David Oyelowo, Tristan Wilds ... Review: Lucas-produced "Red Tails" fails to soar LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Though it tries hard, "Red Tails" never becomes an updated "Glory" with wings. "Glory" was the stirring 1989 film based on a true story about a group of black Union soldiers during the Civil War who battled prejudice both inside and out of the Army. (Denzel Washington won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role. ... REVIEW: 'Red Tails' pairs fantastic battle scenes with so-so characters "Red Tails," the story of World War II's heroic Tuskegee Airmen fighter pilots, feels and moves like classic war films from decades past. 'Red Tails' review: Tuskegee Airmen deserve better Red Tails RATING: (SNOOZING VIEWER)Drama. Starring Cuba Gooding Jr. and Terrence Howard. Directed by Anthony Hemingway. (PG-13. 125 minutes.

Movie Review | 'Red Tails': 'Red Tails,' George Lucas's Tale of Tuskegee Airmen - Review "Red Tails" is a whiz-bang action film about the Tuskegee Airmen, African-American fighter pilots in World War II. Review: The laudable 'Red Tails' misses its target In "Red Tails," the famed Tuskegee Airmen get the John Wayne-style heroic rendering they very much deserve, but in a hackneyed and weirdly context-less story that does them a disservice. 'Red Tails' recounts how black airmen broke the racial barrier in 1941 Despite stunning aerial scenes and good intentions, the George Lucas-produced "Red Tails" is grounded by clumsy dialogue, a meandering plot and the occasional jarring anachronism. 'Red Tails': The pilots soared in World War II, the movie not so much "Red Tails": African-American fighter pilots in World War II. The movie that Executive Producer George Lucas said took 23 years to make. 'Red Tails' draws flak for dialogue, plot Despite stunning aerial scenes and good intentions, the George Lucas-produced "Red Tails" is grounded by clumsy dialogue, a meandering plot and the occasional jarring anachronism. It's an "inspired by" tale of the Tuskegee Airmen that wanders from wildly entertaining to schoolroom instructive to one-note flatness. It's not the fault of the cast. Cuba Gooding Jr.
