Summary: Fun Fun Fun
Review: One of those movies I wish I'd seen at aged 12 on a Saturday afternoon after the serial and cartoon. Even so, great fun despite some slow bits. A case of let your self go and go along for the ride. Haven't YOU ever dreamt about stealing a jet fighter and going for the ride of your life?

Summary: It was pretty dull.
Review: Sometimes there is an occasional explosion but thats about it.This movie is NOT a good example of an Eastwood movie.We did fast foward quite a bit so it might of been a bit more interesting but probably not.The gun sound effects weren't very good.Clint Eastwoods cool but this is probably one of his worst movies.

Summary: Awesome, thrilling, spionage at it's best.
Review: The first half of the movie is slowly developing for a sensational second half. I regret that a sequel was never made, I am sure it would had been a hit. Just watch it and judge by yourself.

Summary: DVD Firefox Please
Review: This is a classic film and desires to be released on DVD to take advantage of its action and sound track. It is a every 6 month labor of love to watch the VHS version.

Summary: OK movie, better book
Review: This is a movie that I did enjoy when I watched it several times back in the 80's. Now, I feel a little different. The character development was nice, but not as good as in the book. The action is good, but some of the speical effects were (even for 1982 standards) so-so. The pan- and-scan does not do justice at all, and the planes look terribly out of proportion. The takeoffs that we see (off of both "runways") are poor at the end.If you've read the book, don't watch the movie. If you've seen the movie, read the book. Even though you've seen the ending, you'll enjoy the ride much more. If you haven't done either, watch the movie first. And whatever you do, read the sequel, Firefox Down! That dogfight didn't go as well as you had hoped....

Summary: A different movie for Clint Eastwood!
Review: This is a pretty good movie, that is slow the first hour, but really gets going in the second hour, It has Clint as a former Air Force pilot who is still haunted by images of Vietnam, who is recruited by the U.S. Government to steal a somewhat stealth-like fighter from the Russians in the age of the Cold War, his infiltration in Russia is what keeps the first hour slow, but once he steals it, it is action-packed as he toys with its capabilities, but is soon pursued by another ace pilot which has one of the best fighter plane chase sequences ever, a good movie & one of Eastwood's best, for all the fans out there wanting this on DVD, good news, it is on the way, to be released in October I believe, "Widescreen Review" has it announced for October or November, can't remember which, but definately on the way!!!

Summary: A cult!
Review: This is one of my all time favorite movies! Great suspence, great characters... and the final part is simply incredible! Do you remember the moment when our hero saw the Mig 31 (it seems part Mig25 and part SR71!) for the first time in the hangar? It was a shock for me! And I hope you remember also the great videogame (lasergame) based on the movie... A cult!!!

Summary: Pure Aerial Cold War movie!!!
Review: This is one of my favorite classics. It was so exciting to see the black pilot stole a top secret super jet in front of russian noses!!. A lot of creativity, super speed effects and great drumming soundtrack. If you like the Cold war ambience and aerial scenes this is a classic you must get in your rack!.
Enjoy Mach 5.

Summary: Firefox
Review: This is one of the best movies that Clint Eastwood has ever starred in. The plot is pretty obvious but the avenues that Eastwood has to take to complete his assignment successfully creates intrigue and suspense. Great Movie!
