Is Red Tails a good movie or just a good idea for a good movie
The Tuskegee Airmen… just saying that name has a certain ring to it doesn’t it? A ring that has echoed loud and far beyond the boundaries of yesterday’s social injustice and into today’s high spirited quest for who they were… or more importantly, who they are. They initially hit airwaves with the made for TV drama, “The Tuskegee Airmen.” Produced in 1995, it gave their story a generational ear that would have otherwise been muted. Now, with 2012’s rendition in the new movie “Red Tails,” there will be audiences abroad that will be able to appreciate their fortitude and applaud their journey. As a monumental piece of American History, “Red Tails” seemed destined for “Movie Magic.” Unfortunately, it was a far cry from it. Simply put…. the movie SUCKED!
