Time has been kind to Flight of the Intruder, a rousing aviation-action adventure that looks better now than it did to critics who panned it in 1991. Perhaps they were expecting a Tom Clancy-ish blockbuster (producer Mace Neufeld oversaw the Jack Ryan franchise), but director John (Conan the Barbarian) Milius had something potentially more substantial in mind. The first 75 minutes are pure Milius: Macho bluster, male bonding among ill-fated pilots and Naval bombardiers, and a Big Wednesday-like passion for dangerous fun. But Milius's favorite topics have sharper teeth here: He's made a scathing anti-Vietnam film that still honors the bravery of soldiers who do their job even when the job itself seems pointless. That's why ace Brad Johnson (why didn't he become a huge star?) and maverick bombardier Willem Dafoe plot a renegade mission, bombing a Hanoi arms depot with their low-altitude A-6 Intruder in the movie's pyrotechnical climax. Fringe benefits abound, including early roles for Tom Sizemore, Ving Rhames, and David Schwimmer in his big-screen debut, three years before Friends and looking like the dweeby grandchild of his Band of Brothers martinet. --Jeff Shannon

 Great Movie March 5, 2010
Jennifer Buckley (NY)

A Classic for Navy/Military Air Combat Fans! January 21, 2010
J. T. Burnett (Hertford, NC)
This is one of my favorite movies! The actors provide a realistic view into the dynamics of the Navy's aircraft of choice,the "Intruder" to destroy enemy SAM's (Surface-to-air-missles). The movie also depicts some of the irony of military justice during the Vietnam war!
I rarely purchase used movies, but had to due to the price of this one. I have had no trouble, and it provided a good quality movie.
If you enjoy air combat movies, you might enjoy it as I certainly did!

The Intruder Flies High. September 12, 2009
Charles F. Grable Jr. (Austin, TX USA)
"Flight of the Intruder" does a surprisingly good job of capturing the violence, the adventure, the human drama, and the sheer, absurd insanity of war. Yet this film presents those elements in a way that is intelligent and insightful. Definitely a couple of cuts above the typical war move, and worth watching more than once. Hey, I bought the DVD.
Flight of the Intruder May 25, 2009
Dennis Knorr (Corpus Christi, TX)
Loved the action contained in the movie. I was actually in the squadron the story is focused on and the author Stephen Coonts was actually one of the pilot's in that squadron of "Bedevilers"(VA-196) when these events were to have taken place.
Good movie, watched it several times with the kids. August 23, 2008
Stephen A. Haley (NM)
Great movie. Not a block buster but a good one and the kids enjoyed it too.
