Is she at least naked in the movie? That’s the only conceivable reason I can think of that would make this worth watching.

I like the spooky alternate scifi history/monster movie aspect of the story taking place on a Flying Fortress and had this been done in the 80s, with the right actors and writers it probably would have had decency and class but the dialogue of all the guys in this is terrible and it seems they are trying to push the feminist messaging/bashing. I'm thinking of how this film would look and play out if it were a combination of Memphis Belle and The Philadelphia Experiment and had it come out in 1985.

Maybe it'll be an okay popcorn movie and maybe the trailer betrays how it will actually pan out but I don't like the way they are portraying the air crew regardless of the fact its supposed to be over the top fiction-action.

This kind of movie reminds me of another movie I heard about called "The Man Who Killed Hitler and The Bigfoot" with Sam Elliot which I think I would like to see.

Thanks for sharing KRT_Bong. It might be a fun movie. However, why did they reveal the monster in the trailer??!! That's a no no in my opinion.

Why is she speaking with a British accent if she’s a flight mechanic for the USAAF?

My guess is that it's a Snow Piercer type movie where the subject matter is not the onscreen subject matter.

read my review with screenshots here and someone said I couldn't recognize a movie that is made to be campy and tongue in cheek

https://SimHQ.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/4499566/15/the-movies-coming-soon-thread

But many reviews on IMDB saw it the same way I did, a Feminism driven anti-Men movie and not a good one

There is nothing campy and tongue in cheek about this movie. It's a movie made by angry women with agenda.

NFB you are right about all that, I watched it and it was entertaining if you can get past the impossible and just imagine it as a live action cartoon kind of a mash up of the Fortress scene in Heavy Metal and the airplane wrecking gremlin in Twilight Zone. Some bits were just pure fantasy (crawling on the bottom of the wing to rescue a box), but it was interesting that 3/4 of the movie was spent in a ball turret. I rolled my eyes and said "oh come on" a few times but I watched the whole thing. I could almost say it was better than WW84.

Isn't that Chloe Grace Moretz in the lead? I fell in love with her when she first appeared as "Hit Girl" in the first "Kick-Ass" movie. She's a good actress but seems to be taking a lot of diverse roles just for a paycheck. She's even the human lead in a new "Tom & Jerry" live action/animation mix move. I saw "Shadow in the Clouds" movie listed on Amazon Prime as "Prime Video Cinema" but they wanted like $18.50 just to rent. That's just too much for only one person to watch. I'm assuming this type of rental is aimed at family or party of friends viewing.

Yes it's Chloe. I liked her better as the Hit Girl.

Didn't you know that WW2 was won entirely by women and sexually confused/ambiguous individuals?

Of course it is when the review is written by a woman who doesn't even question the lack of laws of physics, logic and belief in this crap movie.
