Biopic Bomb Squad
Red Tails
Advertised as a high-flying, action-packed, dubstep-heavy, dog-fighting blockbuster, “Red Tails” aims for a combination of “Star Wars” and “Glory” with a dash of “Top Gun” thrown in to make it commercially viable. But even with George Lucas serving as its enthusiastic executive producer, “Red Tails” seemed unsure from the get-go whether it was a semi-serious historical drama or a balls-to-the-wall action pulp — and consequently, the film spends most of its time flailing awkwardly between the two.
