Highway to the boring zone

High Flight (1957)

Directed by John Gilling this film stars Ray Milland, Kenneth Haigh, Anthony Newley and Bernard Lee. In peace time a group of cadets begins trying to fly jets in the RAF.

This is a light weight Top Gun (1986) with out the action or interesting characters. Essentially this is an RAF recruiting exercise that just about manages to go through the motions based on a weak script. There are a few nice flying moments but not enough by far and the film stock that was used does not give the greatest image quality either.


2/5
