Movie Info

Air Force Sgt. Chuck Brennan (Karl Malden) is ready to retire and trade in his uniform for a cushy civilian job -- especially when brash Col. Jim Herlihy (Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) becomes his commanding officer and starts to court his pretty young daughter, Lois (Natalie Wood). The two men have a contentious history: Brennan blames Herlihy for an enemy bombing raid that killed a man during the Korean War. But could a special assignment on the new B-52 bombers change Brennan's mind?

Clumsy melodrama about the latest in Air Force long range bombers and the service men who maintain them.

Audience Reviews for Bombers B-52

Sep 01, 2010

Mediorce drama with some good aerial photgraphy but a commonplace story. Although top billed Natalie's part is subordinate to the plot and her character is something of a pill but she is stunning. Malden is good as is Marsha Hunt although she is throughly wasted in a nothing part. Zimbalist is wooden.
