The script for this movie was clearly written by somebody with very little idea. Its simple but mildly amusing however it could have benefited by somebody actually talking to somebody who knows something about naval aviation. Landing aircraft and launching aircraft at the same time is not going to happen and that was one of the more obvious problems.Flying from Alaska to North Korea where the flight starts at night, crosses the coast in full daylight yet by the time the aircraft covers the short distance to the DMZ, its suddenly full night.The explosions are fun and that perhaps is the best that can be said for this B grade sci-fi / action action movie. It just needed sharks with lasers to cap it off

As a fan of Jessica Biel and action movies I knew from the minute I saw the trailer for Stealth I had to go see it.Yes I know it got some mix feelings about it but this is just one of those films I look past the junk and see the treasure. I love it since I saw it in theaters back in 2005 which still remains one of my favorite movies I saw in theatersStealth main plot centers around three top fighter pilots as they join a project to develop an automated robotic stealth aircraft.The main protagonists are Lt.Ben Gannon played by Josh Lucas, Lt.Kara Wade played by Jessica Biel, Lt.Henry Purcell Played by Jamie Foxx. Under the command of Captain George Cummings played by Sam Shepard. Rob Cohen served as the Director of the film and watching the film his style does make the film interesting like "The Fast and The Furious" and "xXx". What impress me about this film is that the special effects are really cool plus the designs the film has for the jets are what you call a beast as these Planes are really predators.Also the action scenes and battles will have you on the edge of your seat along with feeling tense as you never know what will come next. That's why I enjoy this film. Also the writing in the film is very good along with clever lines along with smart quotes. Yes I know this film wasn't meant to be a movie of the year pick but it is just not one meant for thinking so why not accept it for what it is. Stealth is more than what others give it credit for it. My advice is to just sit back relax and be blown away by this movie it has some of the best effects of any movie and the action scenes will make you feel tense throughoutStealth deserves more love so just try and give it a watch you could be surprised I give Stealth an 10 out of 10

A stealth jet containing advanced AI starts to act a bit fruity, and it's us humans that have to take it down. A rather enjoyable and ridiculous film that takes itself very seriously. Usually this would go against it but there's something refreshing about the sincerity with which it tells its tale. The acting is all believable, even if the plot points are predictable. The disadvantages of technology and AI in war combat is probably a serious issue, one that this film doesn't even try and address. Come along if you want to see some very exciting aerial combat scenes, some good effects, and enough entertainment to just about fill the running time.

While the photography, special effects and acting are all excellent, this film just doesn't give us the resolution we were looking for. The bar scenes, the port visits, and even some of the shots of the main actors at play are there to give us a human identity as opposed to the EDI persona, I guess. But there are unneeded scenes, especially the one of Jessica Biel in a bikini, not that I found Ms. Biel unpleasant to look at, but the scene wasn't needed. The premise of the film has been done before (Frankenstein, Terminator, etc.), and while this film offers some splendid photography and great special effects of the planes and EDI, overall it lacks the authenticity Cohen is capable of. See it once as a rental, and don't forget to return it on time. You need not add this to your collection.
