Coo. What's this then? Never heard of it.

Wikipedia says it is a short, which is somewhat disappointing, after seeing that clip.

There is always Flyboys which is a feature length WWI film, that comes out this year, though according to Empire magazine it's just "okay".

Comes out this year? I've already got the DVD, I got it in France.

Lots of people (on TMP) slagged it off, but I really enjoyed it. Full of war movie clichés, but lots of fun. In fact, it's fun predicting them before they come up, that adds to the enjoyment.

To me it had the feel of one of the Biggles stories. And that is a good thing.

Watched it on Saturday with my brother and his boy. I predicted two of the things that happened in the final action sequence. I win!

Ah, to be able to throw together a little 15min warmovie in an afternoon. Well...okay!...three afternoons. Or days. But still.

Its great, pity it was about testing a new camera. Jackson is a big WW1 fan and I hold hopes he'll make a great WW1 film.

Incidentally the Halo movie 'shorts' which he produced are awesome as well.
