One of the most artistic and exciting works from Republic Pictures. [Full Review in Spanish]

As a war film, it's weak, but thematically, it is significant for introducing the two-generational conflicts that defined most of John Wayne's features, war, adventures, and Westerns.

Jingoistic, flag waving John Wayne action, circa 1942.
February 22, 2008 | Rating: 4/5 -
While the plot is a clunky and the message heavyhanded, the acting is generally good.

The film's best scenes are reserved for the 1930s style airplane dog-fights.

Audience Reviews for Flying Tigers

May 13, 2008This is a solid movie from the 40's. Basic plot is a group of American pilots who volunteer their services to the defense of China against the Japanese. The story main focus is on John Wayne and John Carroll characters. Wayne is the leader of this group of pilots and Carroll plays the hot head cocky character Woody. The story leads the characters to war, death, friendships, love and duty to their country when America gets into the war with Japan. Some typical stereotypes when it comes to the Chinese actors but expected from the time this film was made. Solid acting all around. Wayne and Carroll are excellent in their roles. The movie has some dog fight scenes throughout. Not that great when compared to movies today but they did their job for a film from the 40's. If your a John Wayne or John Carroll fan check this out or just looking for a old film about WWII then check this out.Corey n Super Reviewer
