The Red Baron
Starring Matthias Schweighöfer, Lena Headey, and Til Schweiger
Directed by Nikolai Müllerschön
Rated PG-13
Even though there are some pretty good scenes depicting aerial battles, there's not much else to recommend The Red Baron, a melodramatic bio-pic of one of the legendary Manfred von Richtofen. The Wwi German ace piled up 80 confirmed combat victories and was one of the most successful fighter pilots who ever lived, and certainly the most legendary.
He deserves a better film than the one he's received here, but you could keep most of the same pieces in place to accomplish that. The Red Baron just isn't quite as good as it could be.
Much of the legend surrounding The Red Baron, who has fought Snoopy and launched a frozen pizza line in American popular culture, comes from his untimely death in battle at the hands of a less experienced fighter. Somewhat remarkably,...

A brand new trailer and new images for The Red Baron has been released on Apple. The movie has been made by independent production company, Montery Media Inc. If you love your planes and dogfights from WW1 in particular then this one is for you. It looks fantastic and the attention to detail looks phenomenal although I think the trailer loses it’s way slightly towards the end. The images look lovely in high resolution. I’ve placed them below but you can head over to Apple to view both the trailer and images in hi-def.

I'm not sure when or how this movie got made, but you've got to check this out. The only reason I went to see that awful Flyboys movie was for the dogfights. Now we've got a German movie about the greatest Wwi dogfighter of all time, The Red Baron, and the aerial fights in this movie look way better than they did in Flyboys. The movies stars Matthias Schweighöfer (seen in Valkyrie) and Til Schweiger (seen in Inglourious Basterds). I'm not sure why they did this, but most of the dialogue in the trailer is in English (I hope it's not dubbed), and it sounds awful. But I suggest watching it for the flying sequences, not the dialogue. Enjoy!
