SHOULD RESULT IN EXCEPTIONAL RETURNS
A well-handled, finely performed adventure story that will thrill and enthrall all who see it. High interest in the exploits of the intrepid band of flyers around which the story is woven should result in exceptional returns. Set to tempos suitable to the widely publicized activities of the American Volunteer Group, whose thrilling and daring exploits it chronicles with dog-fights, machine-gun chatter, ack-ack fire and bursting bombs punctuating the entire footage like corn popping on a hot griddle, this is absorbing fare . . . the kind of entertainment that thoroughly satisfies the masses.
