This high-action flight movie centers on a team of three sexy stealth bomber pilots who are forced to fly with EDI (Extreme Deep Invader), a computer-manned prototype plane that specializes in extra-precision bombing. The brainchild of a Bill Gates-esque wunderkind (Richard Roxburgh), EDI has the ability to learn at a fantastic rate, talks like HAL from 2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY, and likes to listen to hard rock before going into combat. Before long, a freak accident causes it to question authority and launch an attack on Russia. W.D. Richter's script probes big issues involving man, machine, and the nuclear fate of the free world (Read: DR. STRANGELOVE meets THE TERMINATOR). But this is also an action thrill ride from Rob Cohen--the man responsible for THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS and XXX--replete with some truly tremendous explosions and speeds that outdo any mph records set in Cohen's past ouevre. Jessica Biel (TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE) is tough and surprisingly believable as the token female fighter pilot, while Jamie Foxx (RAY) makes a fine wingman to the daredevil squadron leader played by Josh Lucas. Sam Shephard (THE RIGHT STUFF) is their commanding officer, with Joe Morton playing a shady politician. [More]

Reviews for Stealth
Feel free to rent the thing one bored Tuesday night, but don't come crying to me if Stealth makes your brain hurt.
Four hours of special features explain what should have been explained in the film...The Doc "Harnessing Speed" was fantastic, and the featurette of the music was exciting, too.
Good for an evening when you need to put your brain on hold for two hours.
As is typical of big budget action movies, the DVD version includes a whole bunch of interesting extras.
Wonderful action sequences and flight scenes are the only thing keeping us all from passing out because of an oxygen-deprived script and mechanical acting.
