### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Thousand Plane Raid
*by G***S on September 7, 2016*

The basic theme of this movie, The 1000 Plane Raid, was a U.S. Army Air Force colonel convinced the Allies during World War II, that a daylight bombing raid of Germany will bring a quick end to the war. Christopher George, Laraine Stephens, J.D. Cannon and Gary Marshall - plus a host of other well-known actors were superb in their performance. I have read other reviews about the lack of detail due to a "Hollywood" presentation for the beginning of massive daylight bombing. That is so noted. However with the use of actual World War II movies in color - as well as the rest of the film - for the inexperienced viewer, this movie was an excellent introduction to basic information why such a military strategy became necessary.Hitler refused to sue for peace - he was a maniac who destroyed his own nation. This was one of many strategies used by the Allies of WW II, to shorten the war in Europe. I am pleased to have this vintage movie in my collection and give it 5 gold stars! The audio is good and the quality of the movie itself due to its age. I have seen several DVD movies and documentaries on such plane raids; but this movie gave me a basic introduction about the strategy. I was a field grade officer in the USAF and found it very instructive; that includes some of my military Veteran friends who watched it on my TV and arrived at the same conclusion.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dated, to be taken with a grain of salt, but worthwhile if you like WWII aviation movies.
*by D***R on August 4, 2021*

While this one takes a lot of liberties with reality, movies about the Mighty Eighth are pretty scarce and this one is like watching an extended episode of Twelve O'Clock High without the quality of a storyline of the latter. I don't know how I missed this one over the years, as I thought I'd seen every WWII movie out there. If you don't take this one too seriously, you'll enjoy it. Otherwise, if you want a cliff notes version of the air war with a heavy dosage of old war movie cliches, you'll have fun seeing how it all gets worked in here. Don'y set your expectations too high and realize that this one is typical of its era.

### ⭐ Won't Play on Region-1 BR/DVD PLayer
*by S***S on April 1, 2025*

I've tried two copies and neither will play on a standard Region-1 BR/DVD Player. Amazon did refund is the only up-side.
