Fire Birds 1990 123movies

Watch: Fire Birds 1990 123movies, Full Movie Online – The U.S. Government is willing to help any country that requires help in ridding themselves of drugs with support from the Army. Unfortunately, the drug cartels have countered that offer by hiring one of the best air-combat mercenaries and have armed him with a Scorpion attack helicopter. The army decides to send in its best people from its Apache Air Combat school. But first they have to be taught how to fly air-to-air combat missions.
Plot: A joint task force operation between the Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Army has been formed to dismantle one of the largest drug cartels operating in South America. Multiple attempts to assault the cartel’s mountainous compound have been thwarted by a Scorpion-attack helicopter piloted by a cartel leader, Eric Stoller (Bert Rhine). After having several aircraft shot down, most notably a pair of UH–60 Black Hawks and their AH–1 Cobra escorts, the army turns to the new AH–64 Apache attack helicopter, which can match its enemies’ maneuverability and firepower.

A true car crash of a film. I couldn’t look away
‘Wings of the Apache’ is a truly awful film. I can find little good to say about it. During the first five minutes I was ‘on the edge of my seat’ only in a bad, jaw-droppingly amazed kind of way. I’ve watched many bad films over the year. I normally turn them off. However, I sat all the way through this one’s one hour and seventeen minute runtime. I really couldn’t avert my eyes.

Most people describe ‘Wings of the Apache’ as ‘Top Gun with helicopters.’ Yeah, I think that’s a reasonable description, only Top Gun was watchable for different reasons. The opening five minutes I spoke about is basically Nicholas Cage narrating over a bland action scene involving a helicopter dogfight over some mountains. Now, I’m no expert, but I seem to remember the first rule of storytelling is ‘show, don’t tell.’ Yet Cage just tells us what’s happening in a monotone voice. Apparently, the drugs cartels are now using helicopters to shoot down American helicopters. Does this actually happen in real life? Never mind, it does here. And Nicholas Cage – being the only guy who’s seen the cartel’s helicopter in action – must lead the charge against the lone chopper.

He’s ably aided by Tommy Lee Jones – a great actor in his own right, now reduced to barking orders in the most stereotypical ‘drill instructor’ way possible. Plus there’s a love interest. Guess where that subplot goes? So Nick, Tommy and the token woman must train to fight the baddie then fight the baddie then save the day. Hardly inspiring, but I think the most unforgivable element of the film is the editing. It’s just bad. It’s like every shot has been filmed separately to every other one and then spliced together – badly. There’s a slight pause between when someone answers the person original speaking, making conversations seem stilted (assuming the dialogue spoken was any good to begin with – and nine times out of ten it isn’t).

So, in case you haven’t got the drift of what I’ve been saying, ‘Wings of the Apache’ is just bad. And I watched it all until the last credit rolled. Now I’ve seen it, I wonder why I did and yet I’m also curious as to why I may – one day – even watch it again, just to remind myself how bad it was. It’s bad, but bordering on that so-bad-it’s-good kind of way. If you’re prepared for that, it will certainly keep your eyes fixed on the screen for exactly one hour and seventeen minutes.

Not NEAR as bad as all these comments
I don’t know for sure but after reading all of these comments at least half of them seem to come from the same person using different handles. All seem to say the same thing that this tried to be a Top Gun with helicopters. I really didn’t see any comparison to Top Gun whatsoever. No more than there were people flying and there was a love story. Someone mentioned the Iron Eagle series. If one copied the other it was probably Top Gun copying Iron Eagle Since Iron Eagle came out 3 – 4 months earlier.

I just got finished watching this movie Which I saw originally on NBC.

I thought originally that this was a Made for TV movie for some reason but I guess after reading here that it was put out at the theaters. I would have loved to have seen it on the big screen but admit I would not want to pay 7 dollars to see it. IT still rates better than 1 or 2 stars and all the bad insults it is getting here. I agree with one of the people that posted here that it would go great as a “Movie for Guy’s who like movies” As a guy I love movies with action. I am not in the army and know a “Little” about the equipment. I am not a fighter pilot though and am not in the military. As a civilian I love this movie as an action movie. If I wanted to see realistic and authentic representations of Millitiary equipment I’ll go to the History Channel. If I wan’t an action movie with just the right amount of comedy and romance I’ll go see fire birds again.

Is it realistic? NO Is it fun? Yes Is it accurate? No are there some corny lines? Yeah but let me ask you this. All these people talking about Top gun being so big… how many pilots would really fly upside down and flip off a Russian and take it’s picture? how many pilots would really do those kinds of fly by’s and still be in the Navy? and I won’t go into the corny lines from that movie.

All in all Firebirds is deserving of just as much respect based on it’s merits as a fun action/romance movie as is Top Gun without comparing them to each other.
