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]

The script has just enough ideas, however bluntly expressed, to lift it from the eye-candy pack.

Stealth is a pretty fair military-hardware action movie until you start thinking about it -- at which point it turns incredibly sour in your mouth.

This is the sort of action movie that, in spite of its title, you can see coming a mile away.

Kara ejects over North Korea and before you can say "Owen Wilson," she's scampering all over mountaintops and dark plains.

Aggressively stupid and blissfully unaware of it, Stealth follows a robot plane on a journey of self-awareness.

Stealth is flimsy and forgettable, but it does have a few worthy action and special-effects sequences.

Stealth is so over-painted with CGI that it doesn't look as real as the sequence starring Shepard that inspired it in The Right Stuff, a movie made with model airplanes.

The latest and, in many ways, most preposterous hunk of big-screen action to come out of Hollywood in some time.

Watching Stealth, you can't help but wonder why the filmmakers didn't save themselves (and Sony Pictures) a lot of time and money and just make a video game instead of a movie.

I know I'm your agent, babe, but I gotta come clean with you — maybe picking Stealth as your first movie after Ray wasn't a very good idea.

Its muddled ending goes a long way toward negating positive memories of its candy sugar rush.

This movie hated me from the opening scene; two hours later, the feeling was more than mutual.

When your movie is about a magical talking airplane, and yet the magical talking airplane is not the silliest thing about the movie, then you should not make any more movies.
