Mission of Honor (II) (2018)
6/10
Too miserable and too much Brit bashing to be rated as good.
5 April 2020
My landlord who owned a house at the end of one of the runways at heathrow was one of these pilots. He was a nice guy who loved planes and was quite similar in temperament to my next door neighbour who was an English spitfire pilot. So I can't see the need for the Brit bashing which was the core of this film. There have been other black and white films that highlighted the contribution of the Polish pilots in a much more upbeat fashion than this one, like "Reach for The Sky". We won the war together and that should not be forgotten. So no more of this Brit bashing please from people who have no idea how the people of those days used to behave. Everyone was much more positive and chirpy back then even though they went through horrors while today everyone has it easy and are moaning and groaning about how hard done by they are as shown in the film.
