    Flyboys, in my opinion, was one of the best films based on true events. I enjoyed every minute. It has the action, the romance, and the great actors thta brought it all together. I was very impressed by the effects and the story line. I thought that the actors done a great job, especially the lead male. All in all, I really enjoyed this film.
