The director did a fantastic job of balancing the amount of actual fighting time with the amount of time to tell the story of the main character. It starts off feeling a little "top gun" but moved to the uniqueness of the time period after WW2 and the Korean War. Many of the pilots earned their wings after WW2 ended and haven't seen fighting before. In addition to presenting a view into the forgotten war in Korea, it also focuses on a black pilot. Jesse is the only black man in the group of aviators in the movie and through the dialogue viewers are reminded of the differences in his path and that of the white pilots. Overall it is a great film with an engaging story.
