Customer Reviews of Stealth Fighter

Ice-T plays an ex-pilot turned rogue helping a cartel leader ransom world leaders with a powerful satellite system, and a powerful stealth plane. An old friend of his is chosen to lead a military unit to stop his old friend (gee, THAT plotline hasn't been used before).

The "Rangers" they send to stop Ice-T are some of the worst Rangers I've seen on screen. They looked more like Cuban soldiers, and I have to wonder if they just said, "Hey guys we're making a movie, come dressed in whatever military gear you got." I've never gone to Ranger school, but I seriously doubt they train a "Stand Out in the Open and Get Shot Doctrine."

And what the hell was with the Saddam Hussein clone? He barely served any purpose to the plot...except to appear and get blown up. A guy with a mustache, pork belly, and beret isn't going to draw laughter from the audience?

Absolute Genius!
Picture the scene...

Saddam Hussein (apparently French judging by his accent) goes to Thailand to purchase a case of machine guns... personally. To celebrate cliching the deal the devout muslim pours a glass of vodka for his Thai warlord friend and swigs from the bottle himself uttering one of the classic lines of modern cinema... 'A toast!'. He then stumbles on to the veranda of the hut to be nuked by Ice-T in a sttthhtealth (sic) fighter. We laughed for hours! OK so the film is terrible but that one scene makes this a work of absolute genius!

Here is 'a toast' to the inspired direction and sparkling performance by 'Saddam' he diserves an Oscar!! Perhaps the CIA could replace the real Saddam with the star of this film. No one would be able to tell the difference!

Leave on the "Shelf Fighter"
As far as Ice T vehicles go this one is pretty good. Ice T gives a totally believable performance as a former rap artist desperately trying to parlay his past sucess in the music business into a career as a bad actor. His acting is probably improving though, but who can tell? Unfortunately Science cannot yet measure the miniscule improvement in his talent and Amazon does not provide me with the option of anything less than one star... All that aside, Ice T is not totally to blame for this movie's garbage-ness. The script is pretty weak and the supporting cast is not very supportive. Maybe I couldn't suspend my disbelief, but in certain scenes, like all the ones where people are being stealthy, they are not stealthy, they are clearly in plain view of the people they sneak up on. The Stealth Bomber featured in the film spends most of its time parked in a garage. And when it attacks targets it certainly doesn't "smart bomb" them...nor does it make any effort to go unseen. It actually attacks in broad daylight. I guess we are supposed to chalk that up to Ice T's lack of flight experience. Bottom line: if you name your movie "Stealth Fighter" then by definition it should have some stealth in it. Maybe its ironic. Maybe the quality of the movie is "stealthy" making it appear as if it is without quality. Bearing that in mind I give it no stars but it gets five stars--all in stealth mode.
