Masters of the Air episode two, or rather Part Two, takes a considerable amount of steps forward but occasionally losses footing with more weak dialogue.
This show is at its strongest during the combat missions. The characters' dialogue there feels more authentic. The battle chatter is great and feels real. The moments in the plane look great and look real. The sound effects could be better as well as the sound mixing, but it is solid enough.
But what continues to keep this show from reaching a higher score are moments out of the plane. The characters and the dialogue just don't feel natural. It's like I'm watching an idea of what the writers think people from this time period were like.
The cgi seemed to have improved or, at least, perhaps less, was used. However, they continue to use this effect or filter that make the show look bleak and dark. Which makes everything lack color.
But so far, it's a decent show, and it hasn't annoyed me as much as The Pacific did.
IMDb: 7/10 Letterboxd: 3/5
Watched on Apple TV+ in 4k Dolby Vision.
