Holy cow... are those... I-16s?

How about “The Last Boyscout”?

There is no way in Hades I’d go see a film with flying that bad. Bruce will do just fine without my business.

So to be fair.

  1. The movie is very clearly aimed at Chinese audiences
  2. This isn’t the kind of movie you pay money to see in theaters
  3. this is the kind of movie you watch out of curiosity when it pops up on Netflix, half drunk friends preferable but ultimately optional.

Curiosity: Some cockpit takes are done with J-6 (Mig-19) cockpit - and some use inverted image.
