Memphis Belle (1990)
7/10
Nice effort, nice film
5 December 2006
This film is a pretty accurate depiction of the Memphis belle story, with a few exceptions that I won't name. There is no denying the cinematography is impressive, more so than films like "the battle of Britain" which you may notice reuses some shots of crashing bombers up to 12 times. (yes we counted, yes we were bored). The film feels like it ought to be older than it is, (1990), which actually gives it quite a nice look. If your a fan of films like "Saving Private Ryan" or shows such as "Band of Brothers" (which is superb) then Memphis Belle is worth a go. only negatives are some not too impressive sfx and a few other slightly silly bits that I'm pretty certain didn't/couldn't have happened. overall, an enjoyable film for a lazy afternoon.
