I love this movie so much

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I read the review and I certainly disagree. It may seem a little as they are driving across the desert but then it gets interesting. Its not a quick slam dunk movie but takes you into wandering whats going on the further it gets. And you also never really know who the goods guys are till the very end. Watch it carefully and you will be satisfied in the end. If you take the negative iew then you won't enjoy it and might as well stop before its gets going.

In an era which I love, I adored this film. Set in the Arabian desert during WW1, a lovely English nurse and a strong headed American pilot are brought together to find a missing German ace which turns out to be a deadly game of deception and survival. Filled with adventure, suspense and cheeky comments .. pay attention as the story unfolds bringing you to a surprising ending...It captured me. The trailer gives nothing away.

Stupid plot that did not make much sense, lousy acting, predictable characters. I have no idea why this movie was even released. I could go on and on, but I have said as much as is worthwhile. You will be disappointed with this movie. This is one of those movies that you end up yelling at the screen in disbelief.

Excellent adventure film set in the Egyptian desert in WW1 (circa 1917). A truly engaging film with a twisty plot filmed in a superb desert location (near Death Valley). And nice close action photography of biplanes (none actually flown by the ace pilot main characters). (spoiler:) Essentially three characters: an ace pilot German double- agent who only speaks German, a bilingual English nurse, and an American ex-baseball player, grounded ace pilot. Brilliant chase scene and a struggle to the death over stolen intelligence, with no sex, romance, or gratuitous violence. Rated R for some appropriate cussing.
