The movies you find flipping through channels. Im not a big John Wayne fan, but he did a decent job in this. Janet Leigh did a good job in it. The dialogue was a bit cheesy at times. It was good enough to keep watching it, but not one I would watch again.
Janet Leigh's potrayal of a ruskie mig pilot is just horrible. Like she didn't even try. Good action though and the Duke kills it, naturally.
This is a really and I mean a really bad John Wayne movie as one of his non-western movies made that should not have been made.
This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Jet Pilot" !
