szweda-18555 Thanks Netflix for letting me get a proper look at this drivel. Others have set down why this is a film to avoid so better you spend your time reading a few of them than 2 hours with this dross. "Naval Air Force"? WTH? Three pilots each ticking the PC boxes, cliches in this script abound especially the feeble attempt to sound like real aviators who this film totally insults. When there are fine technothriller books and writers out there why this cartoon junkery?
jonsefcik I'd recommend Stealth to any aviation enthusiast. Not because it's a faithful and heartfelt tribute to the military pilots of yesterday or today, or even because it's quality cinema. I recommend it because it's so bad it's good.To this film's credit, the CGI holds up really well and I appreciate the scale of the production in some scenes such as use of the real USS Abraham Lincoln and practical explosions. On the special features it shows they took pictures of the inside of F-18s to make the inside-the-plane transition shots more accurate. Besides that, this movie is just plain STUPID! If the events of this movie actually happened, it would trigger World War III.Let's start with the fictional F-37 Talons: how do these things even fly? The trailing edge of their variable geometry wings in the extended position becomes the leading edge in the retracted position. How would they generate any lift in that configuration? Also, isn't variable geometry kind of a Cold War relic? You don't really see it on new aircraft anymore. Lt. Gannon drops the bomb in Rangoon out of pure ego, something a real military pilot would never do. EDI apparently becomes evil after a lightning strike. That's not how technology works! I love how EDI cranks up the music to drown out Gannon like an angsty teenager. What exactly was their flight path on the second mission? They're presumably in the Indian Ocean, flying north to bomb a target in Tajikistan, then fly east presumably over China to...North Korea? Why? EDI breaks formation to bomb an imaginary target in Russia and Henry chases him. EDI flies low and starts zigzagging through a canyon. I don't pretend to be an expert on dogfighting tactics, but I'm pretty sure one of the first strategic things they teach you is you have the advantage when you're above and behind the enemy aircraft. Why would you not only give up your advantage but endanger your own aircraft by flying after them? Why use a missile in such tight quarters and not a gun? Wade has to bail out over North Korea. First of all, this American military pilot decided to fly over the most vehemently anti-capitalist nation on Earth? Second, what's the range on these planes? That trip must be like 5000 miles by now without refueling. It's a fighter-bomber not a Boeing 767! Sure Gannon and EDI refuel but we never see Wade do it. Wouldn't a self-destruct on a military aircraft have to manually operated and not automatic? That'd be dangerous for the pilot. When Wade ejects the aircraft blows up right over her so she's chased by debris the whole way down. The plane would still be moving forward after she ejects so even if she only had 5 seconds the plane would be like a mile away when it exploded. EDI and Gannon are intercepted by and shoot down Russian Flankers. Your planes are Mach 5 capable! Why not outrun them? Not to mention two American planes penetrating Russian airspace and shooting down three Russian fighters probably wouldn't be great for foreign relations. It took me years to finally figure out Capt. Cummings wants everyone who knows about EDI killed since they don't really develop it. Not to mention Gannon and EDI bombing the DMZ to save Wade. I couldn't think of a faster way to start WWIII with Russia and North Korea.And oh yeah, 1 is not a prime number! What was the point of that whole lucky prime number thing anyway?I didn't even mention the simplistic and unlikable characters, something other reviewers seem to have covered. Overall, this film's plot is so stupid its actually funny. If you love military aircraft, Stealth is so bad it's good.
SnakesOnAnAfricanPlain A stealth jet containing advanced AI starts to act a bit fruity, and it's us humans that have to take it down. A rather enjoyable and ridiculous film that takes itself very seriously. Usually this would go against it but there's something refreshing about the sincerity with which it tells its tale. The acting is all believable, even if the plot points are predictable. The disadvantages of technology and AI in war combat is probably a serious issue, one that this film doesn't even try and address. Come along if you want to see some very exciting aerial combat scenes, some good effects, and enough entertainment to just about fill the running time.
salispahic I've heard a lot of bad things about this movie, so I did not watch it until now. I decided to watch it, because there was nothing else on TV. I am now writing this review with my TV off. Movie still have about hour and forty minutes to go. Stealth is the worst movie ever. I would rather have my head kicked in, then watch this movie. I would rather watch whatever, honestly,there is nothing worse than this movie. Nothing!Horror, and actors are not that bad. I mean, there must be a law against this sort of movie. We need some reverse SOPA, to protect us from movies like this. Pain, pain, pain.
