Josephine O'Neill Daily Telegraph (Australia) For the non-technically minded, its appeal is problematical. Regarded purely as a film production, it is a technical fascination. May 26, 2021 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy The Disney Studios' most protracted and arguably their most successful experiment with limited animation.

Noel L What an entertaining film about a dark time in history. I wonder if this film gave people back then hope? Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/25 Full Review Dale R This is a World War II propaganda film that the United States government commissioned Disney to produce. It combines animation and live action segments to tell the history of flight and how to use air power to win World War II. During the history segment, they had my attention, but right afterward the film lost me completely. So much so that about 15 min after the history segment I turned it off because I really was not watching it anymore. You might like it if you enjoy WWII era propaganda and history, but I wouldn't recommend it otherwise.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member An interesting insight into the challenges and ideas of the time Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member An amazing way to view WWII through the perspective of those around it at the time rather than from a historical perspective. It is fascinating to see the thought development of those behind the war effort. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
