Great aerial stunts, good period atmosphere, and compelling story with Redford in good form.

Audience Reviews for The Great Waldo Pepper
½
The airplane stunts in this movie are exciting, and the drama in the movie is pretty good, and it's kind of sad too. I hated the end, though. This movie was good, but it could have been better.
