Granted this is not the best movie ever and the scenario is not always credible but Les chevaliers du ciel was meant to be entertaining and for a French movie, the result is better than one could initially expect.
The main interest of the movie is of course the fighter jets. I found the photography in the flight scenes better than that of any other movie I had see before, including Top Gun. This is why I gave this movie 7/10. Furthermore, this is not CGI but actual film shot from a pod located under a real plane, something worth mentioning when most other movies nowadays would rely on computers to show aircraft in the air.
So if you like war planes in action, Les chevaliers du ciel is for you. The flight sequences alone are worth it. And the rest of the story is still quite pleasant.
