★★★★ · Twenty Five Hour Day review · Aztek Warrior · 2007-12-01
As a first time reviewer, I liked this film due to its subject matter, the "Thuds", and its role in the Vietnam War.

High spin factor is in effect for this exploration about what benefits the Air Force is bringing to the Viet Nam war. Of course, this is all Top Gun, making the Air Force look as glamorous as possible. Noone dies, and even if your plane does go down, there will be a Jolly Green Helicopter to come in and scoop you up (complete with gung-ho theme song). Heck, even Mr. Viet-Nam Spin Doctor himself Robert Macnamara makes an appearance.

Although it is a propaganda piece,it has some redeeming qualities. It has some very nice footage of several of the different aircraft that was prevalent in Vietnam. Also,some very nice visuals of a beautiful country torn apart by war. As long as you understand that this is an Air Force propaganda piece,you can enjoy this somewhat entertaining documentary.
