Summary: Intruder Rocks The House !
Review: I am a big fan of action and war type movies and I can tell you that this movie is my number 1 favorite war movie. The part where they go to downtown Hanoi and attack SAM city was the best part of the movie.
If you like war and flying, you will love this movie.

Summary: Johnson and Dafoe hit the mark
Review: I am an avid war historian, and althought this movie falls short of the reality of the vietnam conflict. The insaneness embraced by Johnson and Dafoe make this a must own for all movie buffs. In addition, it is really awful that this has not been released in DVD format as of yet from the studio.

Summary: Did not read the book but the DVD is worth a look
Review: I have never read the novel but the film is overall a fine tribute to the A-6 pilots who flew those dangerous missions over Vietnam in the early 1970s. It's worth it to buy or rent the DVD simply because you can skip to the excellent flying sequences. There-by avoiding the less interesting filler. Overall see it for the planes and the action.

Summary: It is a movie worthy of being in your collection
Review: I have this movie in my collection. I have watched it many times. As a combat veteran of Vietnam, 66/67, the movie did not answer the pilot's serious question. "Why are we here." However, I really don't think there is or was an answer to that question. It is a movie worth being in your collection.

Summary: Flight of the Intruder
Review: I liked the movie, thought it was a bit far fetched. Loved the scene at Pauline's in Olongapo. I don't remember the Philippines being that tame.

Summary: VERY DISAPOINTING
Review: I READ A COUPLE OF THE SITES REVIEWS, "THAT'S MUST BE THE PROBLEM". AND WAS HYPED TO GET THIS DVD. IT SAYS ACTION ADVENURE MOVIE. IT'S A TWO HOUR MOVIE. THERE'S ACTION IN THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES, THEN MAYBE ABOUT FOURTY MINUTES LATER, AND FINALLY WITH TWENTY FIVE MINUTES TO GO IT BECOMES A STORY AND THERE'S PLENTY OF ACTION. THE STORY WHEN IT WAS OVER WAS OK. I HAD A SMILE, BUT I'M NOT WAITING FOR TWO THIRDS OF THE MOVIE TO BE OVER BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENS. BEHIND ENEMY LINES WAS BETTER. THERE WAS A STORY AND PLENTY OF ACTION. THIS IS A GOOD RENTAL TAPE. I BOUGHT IT, A MISTAKE. THERE IS NO AS MANY SCENES AS THESE REVIEWERS TELL YOU WHERE YOUR IN THE AIR. I'M DEBATING ABOUT TRADING IT IN. ON THE LIGHTER SIDE I WAS SURE 3000 MILES TO GRACELAND WAS A BOMB AND WAS BLOWN AWAY YESTRDAY WHEN I FINALLY WATCHED IT. I LIKED IT VERY MUCH. I DON'T PICK APART A MOVIE BEACAUSE OF A ACCCENT OR NOT BELIVABLE. UNLESS IT'S A DOCUMENTY I WANT TO BE ENTERTAINED AND THAT MOVIE DID IT WELL. PEACE!!!!!!

Summary: Bridges of Toko-Ri with a happier ending
Review: In a lot of ways this is the Korean war film, "Bridges of Toko-Ri" updated to the Vietnam war. Hated that film! Actually I hated what the film showed. This movie has some great music but for some reason you don't get to hear all of it like you do when you get it on CD. Don't know why. You should use everything you've got when making a film.A lot of reviewers were not fooled by the special effects, and with today's movie watcher if you can't make it believable, you're sunk. I found I could suspend my disbelief long enough to let the movie present its story. The final scenes where the actual A-1 SkyRaiders fly over the downed pilots to save them makes the whole movie worthwhile. It shows a side of the Vietnam War most do not realize took place: a lot---THOUSANDS of pilots were rescued in the heart of North Vietnam during the war without the hoopla and fanfare of the O'Grady near-fiasco years later. The fact that this film depicts this reality makes it worthwhile.

Summary: No joy....
Review: It's incredible that the makers of this film turned the best-written novel about the air war in Vietnam into such a flat movie. "Intruder" the novel was deft, pefectly nuanced and paced. The restrictive rules of engagement which typified the war, and were blamed for prolonging it and exacerbating the dangers fought by the Americans who fought it, have never been given a more eloquent treatment than author Stephen Coonts offered. The dynamics of air combat put the reader in the right seat as captive passengers of the pilot, while the nuts and bolts of the air war was described clearly. "Intruders" the movie, however, gets it all wrong, with a script that follows the novel to well and doesn't know when to go its own way or how. The charachters seem flat, the flying scenes unconvincing and the moral dilemma of following orders vs. fighting-to-win gets less treatment than the novel offered. None of Coont's textured charachters - like Cowboy, Razor, Rabbit or Tiger - seem recognizable. In a move meant to sanitize the film for mainstream audiences - films can't appeal to discrete and narrow audiences the way that technothrillers apply to a narrow band of miltary enthusiasts - the film tones down some aspects of the novel that appealed to the right-wing: the film's heroes get in trouble one night in Subic Bay during a fight sparked by a racial remark. In the novel, the incident involved a tank-topped sailor with an earring ("It's all the rage in the states") a different sort of antagonist entirely. Then there's the target of the heroes' unauthorized raid: a mammoth storage site for enemy missiles (imagine a mall parking lot with missile trucks instead of Camrys) that is clearly military. The novel's crosshairs were set on the National Assembly building in Hanoi, a more political than military target, and one many viewers might not appreciate. Worst of all are the flying scenes. The Intruders fly most of their missions at night, like spaceships in an un-lit void. Milius must have gone crazy trying to visualize how to visualize action in a setting and with charachters even partly sheathed by darkness. Milius' answer is that the night isn't as much black as it is covered by a dark blue light, denim colors. The air over Vietnam, renowned for horrible visibility, seems as clear as New York on a winter's day. Worse than unconvincing in its own right, it does little to make the extensive models look like anything more than models. I kept waiting for Godzilla to come crashing down on the whole thing. In short, a major disappointment.
