Born to Fly

subtitles in english

This movie is overflowing with heart, passion, and dedication. The unsung people known as test pilots are so under appreciated. Born to Fly highlights their spirit and determination in their chosen profession, taking on risks to ensure their air force have the best possible equipment to go about their duties. I love how the director tried to keep it as real as possible (from what I heard in interviews), incorporating anecdotes from real test pilots, showing us glimpses and sacrifices of their lives. The aerial scenes are breathtaking, so vivid and mesmerizing. I also love how the story takes us through the conditioning and training one would go through to even be considered for a test pilot position in China. Lei Yu is an eager beaver, going through life fueled by his love of the air. He can be spontaneous to a fault however he more than makes up for it with his intelligence, love of problem solving and drive to succeed. Wang Yibo plays Lei Yu to perfection, injecting his brand of 100% dedication to his chosen craft. I love the camaraderie between the team and personnel, everyone understood their assignment, gave their all. This movie is well casted, I especially loved Hu Jun's role as Zhang Ting, he inspires such loyalty. You will laugh, cry, cheer but most of all, overflow with admiration for a team of dedicated people at the end of this movie.

Such a cool movie! I laughed, I cried and I was in awed. The cinematography of the jets and the landscape was impressive. Everything was paced perfectly. No scenes were wasted. It was over before I knew it. Love the characters and their story. The aerial flight scene were amazingly shot. I watched it twice just to take in all its beauty. Learn a lot about test pilots and their sacrifices. The realness of this movie was also something I truly loved as well. The sound of the sonic boom was so cool as well as the spins and engine failures. Want to rewatch again. It's family theme too! Highly recommended!

Born to Fly - yes they are born to fly. Who does not want to see a group of handsome pilots! The movie is full of thrilling scenes, boyish fights with laughters, touching moments that melt your heart...... Air-fighter lovers will absolutely enjoy seeing these newest fighter jets (yes you can see military grade stealth aircraft.) Captain Zhang's life tells the true meaning of love. The love-hate relationship between the boys are so real, hostile in the beginning but caring to each other at the end. Lei Yu is such a character: good-looking, determined, self-disciplined. He made me think maybe all soldiers have these qualities. Anyway, a full-star movie and I love it.

What I can say is that this movie is very amazing, inspiring and touching. All the feeling about this movie is beyond words. The whole film does not focus on the air battle scenes caused by the air disputes between countries, but the thrilling scenes do appear one after another. Every character has their own personality. There are not only competition among comrades in arms, but also humorous laughs. The relationship between the hero and heroine is also to the point. The most touching thing is the last messages of the real pilots before the sacrifice that appeared at the end of the film. The tone is so calm, but every word reveals his nostalgia for his dearest and loved ones.

Normally I was a bit worry about the CGI but when watching this, it was totally awesome ! It's really a great film about the story of a group of test pilots and what they overcome. The job of a test pilot is scary as they have to put themselves as test subject to make sure the jet is safe for the fighter pilot. The cast and especially Wang Yibo did an amazing job. His character was a bit too sure of himself in the beginning. He caused some mistakes and after some unfortunate event, learned to take charge and made great changes. Overall a great film to watch with family and to learn more about the seriousness of being a test pilot.

It's a high-tech story. The main actor is a talented actor who works very hard. Every actor is good. It is a high-tech movie that shows the development of China's aviation industry. It is a proud movie that is supported by officials of the aviation department. This is a movie that portrays the pilots' efforts, sacrifices, perseverance and industriousness as national heroes. The goal of the new generation of rescuers can be revealed I will get the love of the people. Actor Wang Yibo repeated the rehearsals, consulted with the pilots, and made the character more expressive. Actor Wang Yibo is not only a motorcycle racer, but also an easy-going person.

This movie is about test pilots, their dedication and their sacrifices to protect the country they love. If you call this propaganda, then isn't all military propaganda? Put politics and prejudices aside and watch the movie for what it is. It's a story about the journey of a young pilot, Lei Yu, to becoming a great test pilot. The director is one of the best I see in filming jet planes. I've never see jet planes so beautifully filmed before. The movie also went under heavy scrutiny to make sure all the facts are right. It is action packed right from the start and it has moments that makes you laugh and moments that makes you cry. The CGI is done perfectly and the surround sound of the roar of the plane engine ripping through the sky gets you all fired up. It has shots of gorgeous landscapes and clouds that makes you wish you were a pilot! The acting by the entire cast is excellent and natural. Wang Yibo's acting amazes each time as you go through every emotion he goes through. I do love that Lei Yu has flaws and makes mistakes, unlike other movies where hero is always the best. One thing I would love is to see more interaction with more of his teammates and get to know them better. They look like a fun group. I also love how the director deals with romance in this movie. Although it was barely there, one glance is more than enough to let the imagination fly! Overall, it's a great movie that the whole family can enjoy. It has just the right amount of everything. I'm ready for a rewatch! It's very unfortunate they don't show it in IMAX here.

After seeing Born to Fly,I am full of hope for Chinese military movies. He does not preach or force into the plot, but shows the real life of soldiers in a humorous rhythm. These warm-blooded guys may be ordinary people who have passed by us before, but it is their dedication and sacrifice that enables more ordinary people to live a safe life. Military movies should not only show military strength, but also control the degree, to have tears with laugh and to have highlights. I really praise for the skill of the screenwriter, but also for a bo of their passionate young men's true interpretation of praise, actor Wang Yibo is amazing and this the second movie for him which has shown his extraordinary understanding of the character and he matches with every movie role so well. Hope of Chinese film.
