Sky Fighters

Two rival French fighter pilots, an experienced veteran and a hot-headed rookie, are forced to put aside their differences when a squadron of advanced, stealthy enemy aircraft threatens to unleash a nuclear attack. They must join forces to thwart the deadly mission and save the world from annihilation.

Sky Fighters received a mixed to negative reception from critics, with many finding its plot predictable and its action sequences less engaging than expected for a modern aerial combat film. Audiences had a similarly lukewarm response, appreciating the attempt at a high-octane thriller but ultimately finding it to be a formulaic entry in the genre.

• Competent but uninspired aerial action.

• Relies heavily on clichés and predictable plot twists.

• Lacks the thrilling edge of its predecessors in the genre.

Google audience: Audience reviews are scarce, but those available indicate a general feeling that the film is an average action flick with some good flying scenes but a weak story.

The film was originally intended to be a sequel to the 1998 French film 'Les Filles de Monaco' but was reworked into an original story with a new cast and crew.
