This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The action in this movie is awesome, my favorite part is when the German head leader was being shot at by lighting, the German pulled a trick from turning to shoot at lighting but Ez saved lightening and shot down the German head leader. This movie gave African Americans a lot of recognition. This movie was created in 2012, it was mainly about African Americans in World War II that completed great accomplishments. Although, there was segregation they did not let that stop them from doing their job. The movie was mainly about the life of the African American men during WWII, all what they accomplished. The goals that they met and didn't meet . During the time of the war they didn't have great equipment such as their plane, it was not as advanced as the other American planes. They painted the tails of their plane red to be different from the others. A interesting scene the movie I really liked was when the "Red Tails" were able to get over to the Germans base and destroy a lot of their weapons and soldiers. This was important to the movie because the African American men were the only one to be able to accomplish this. I would recommend this to children and adult, 8+. This movie is very important to African American history.

The most exciting part in ¨Red Tails¨ is when they were fighting the Germans and they blew up their all there army. I found that part most exciting because it shows them winning victory and how they all were coming together as a team and win. That's why I find that post most exciting in ¨Red Tails¨. The movie ¨Red Tails´ was taken place January 20, 2012. It is a PG-13 movies. Red tails is about During World War II, the Civil Aeronautics Authority selects 13 black cadets to become part of an experimental program at the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama. The program aims at training "colored personnel" to become fighter pilots for the Army. However, discrimination, lack of institutional support and the racist belief that these men lacked the intelligence. As they become known, more than prove their worth. What happens in the movie is basically young black men going to war against the Germans. And they are fighting for their country and their victory. Pilots who were the first black servicemen to fly combat missions for the US Army Air Forces at a time when the military was racially segregated and black Americans were not recognized as full citizens at home. Something in the film that was most important to me is when they were fighting the Germans and they won. That film was most important to me because it shows that they are hard working black men that won't take no lost. It always shows that they are proving to them even tho they are black they still are good fighter who fights for their country. This is a great movie and yes do recommend everyone to watch this because you will enjoy it. So yes i do recommend people to watch this. It teaches you a lot and you will learn a lot . and you will also see how young black men can make history and make victory. So yes please watch it because you will love it!

Do you like a love story with a war story, if you do you would love the movie Red Tails. The ending of the movie was very good and it even made some of the people get emotional. The movie showed people how it was back then and what people of color as they called them used to go through. As the black man said in the movie "when you get mad you turn red, when you get envious or sick you turn green, when you become cowardly you become yellow and all got the nerve to call us colored". This movie is called red tails which was directed by George Lucas, Anthony Hemingway. The movie came out January 20 ,2012 and was also filmed in Croatia. One of the main characters to me was lighting. He was brave,outspoken confident and in love. The movie was about love, racism and war. The movie all together is about war blacks and whites working together. This movie was about a group of african americans working with the whites.The whites never wanted the blacks to work with them that why the didn't include them in any of the wars.The blacks wanted to be treated equally.They wanted to show the whites they can do the same as they can do if not better.The blacks helped the whites by protecting the bombers and if the bombers got hurt they would guide them and make sure they are safe going back. One thing that i think that was important and that stood out was lightening being brave and was always taking risks.He was always wanting to help his fellow team members and always wanted to make sure everybody was ok.He even died for his own captain. He was in love and he always wanted to impress her.He would go see her after the wars. I just feel bad the way he died because he had a plan to go and be happy with the women of his life. He was ready to say goodbye and his women was torn when she found out. I would recommend kids and adults watch this movie for many reasons. I recommend kids to watch this movie because they can learn about their ancestors or people back then who were judged about their race.They should know that whites never wanted blacks to work with each other. I would recommend adults to watch this movie because adults could also learn from this movie too. Some adults may have been experienced some of these things in there life.

This film is not into realism. It doesn't even look like racism was real. I would have given less stars but the flying looked good, and the planes looked like they were flying.
