Skyggen i mit øje (2021)
Best Mosquito film ever
Good sets, costuming, locales.
Slow storyline at first
Liked how they cut into the mission planning
Love the CG FX for bombers & the Mossie cockpit sequences.
Compare to 633 Squadron & Mosquito Squadron
Good hits on Getapo Hq , bad for the school
Very tense
Very unique
Best foreign made War film about real event.
JAG (1995)
Super JAG
Good sets, locales, storylines But problems:
Use same ship sets weather set is a Sub, carrier, etc.
Subs are very different from surface ships More cramped
Episode Shadow had it right day 1.
Use same sets for carriers, frigates etc.
& the bridge didnt match the ship
Most bridge scenes for cruisers were using carrier bridge.
& ship names: USS Patrick Henry is a FBM sub not a carrier
USS Seahawk is the USS Enterprise.
& other ships used one USS Bennington was another carrier
& Norfolk set looked like San Pedro, Norfolk is cold, dark, grey.
Otherwise shore sets perfect for locale etc.
A+ for MilTech & uniforms, etc.
Too bad never did a sequel IE JAG Command & expand to all armed forces, than add NCIS.
Or make NCIS like JAG, they probe events aboard ships worldwide,
Havent seen any JAG stars since JAG anyplace else.
Adm C charcter did a movie as a bad guy but hes the only one.
Best episodes Jaggle Bells, Shadow, Black Jet, Persian Gulf, Mishap,
Martin Baker Fan Club, 1969 USO show episode on USS Ticonderoga,
WW2 episode set on Iwo Jima on hospital ship,
Classics all.
Tarzan (1966)
Clean cut Tarzan
Whole show is clean cut IE the safaris coming into the jungle, never wearing jeans etc.
Can tell the indoor sets from Mexico wilds alone.
Otherwise routine TV fare, Very G rated.
Even Tarzan is clean vs roughened by the jungle.
In real life everyone would look gritty, dirty, etc esp Tarzan.
Or hed look worn by the heat,humidity, etc.
Classic for the ages.
& who wears suits into the jungle? saw similar on Man from UNCLE episode.
Very lame.
Arms were always std Safari fare, never any semi autos, etc from WW2 era since show occured Today ( in 60s).
OK plots.
2 bad didnt have Tarzan vs Commies seeking some ore to mine & Tarzan comes to rescue.
