Who wrote the bit about the Hurricane being obsolete? Lulz They first flew less then two years before WW2 started, and were pretty much state-of-the-art for the year before the war.

I was really looking forward to this film. However, it is just another film that portrays the British as bullies, our women as slags and our war effort as zero. This time, no disrespect to the Polish pilots that did fight in WW2 with the RAF, but the media are saying the Polish won the Battle of Britain in the second world war. The CGI is poor. I'm not even sure why they named the film "Hurricane". I definitely would NOT recommend this rubbish (unless you're Polish).

Some months back I saw that we were expecting two WW2 movies in September, one being Spitfire, the other Hurricane. Now seeing as I'm a collecter of WW2 artifacts & being a big fan of War movies I looked forward to both movies, Hurricane is the first or the two to air & all i can say is I hope spitfire is miles better as hurricane is one of the worst movies I've ever seen...

A great story of the heroism and skill shown by Polish pilots deserves a much better telling. In fact it has already been done by channel four with their docudrama, "Bloody foreigners" which tells the story more concisely in half the time, with personal recollection of some of the pilots themselves and dramatisation. Hurricane is so low budget, in fact I suspect more of the budget was spent on sandwiches than the CGI. A lack of characterisation of the principal players and of the very, real hurdles put in front of talented but "Foreign" pilots, make this a very lazy effort at best. The only upside, maybe, that the viewer who's interest in this story has been piqued, will probe further elsewhere and may, more fully, appreciate the sacrifice , talent and bravery of our erstwhile Polish allies.

I watched it because I like to learn about WW and it´s supposed to be based on a true story but the acting was bad, there were unnecesary scenes and the music was just awful. The score is supposed to immerse you into the story but it was so low and had no depth that it did not make me feel anything for the movie.

Giving credit where it's due the use of Polish in the film from actors who don't normally speak Polish was worth a star. The rest was worth 0. Pilots with their oxygen masks hanging off during combat so we can see who is who was ridiculous. Speaking from the side of their mouths to issue instructions and congratulate each other was insulting to the audience and the pilots who flew during the Battle Of Britain. The planes flew like something out of a Star Wars movie and they seemed to have endless ammunition. Yes I know they only had one Hurricane but the beauty of CGI is you can make it look real if you put some effort in. These were Hurricane's not space ships. Red Tails did the same when they tried so badly to tell the story of brave black US airmen. That was an insult to brave men and this was as well. The story of one of the best squadrons during the BOB was boring and the love story aspect even worse. Even casting Ramsay Bolton could not make it interesting. The British film Battle Of Britain told the story of the pilots and ground personnel wonderfully. They even acknowledged the many non British pilots who fought and died with a particular emphasis on Polish pilots. Don't waste any time on this tripe watch BOB instead and see how to make a proper film.

A budget movie that looks every minute of it. The battle scenes are computer generated, similar to the quality of a computer game you buy at a car boot sale on local street market with Chinese titles. The story starts off with a polish pilot stealing an aircraft in occupied France and flies it to England totally undetected by the German forces and lands in England close to a hotel in which a number of other polish pilots are hiding in and not fighting with their own resistance army. Once you accept the poor quality computer generated battle scenes, you are faced with a selection of bargain basement B actors and actresses. I would suggest the security services use this film as part of interrogation, I would confess to anything if I faced the prospect of having to sit through it again. AVOID.

I have just come back from the cinema and wanted to share my thoughts. I don't want to spoil anything so I'm keeping the plot to the minimum. The movie is based on true accounts of the finest of Polish squadrons, the 303 squadron formed in RAF, Northolt. It tells the bittersweet story of people who had nothing but themselves and their skills to offer in the fight against Germans during WWII. (Note, I'm not writing Nazis. These were Germans of that era). Having been thought of like the scum of the earth, these men proved that given the opportunity they can be incomparable in the air battles while many English pilots weren't even combat ready. The movie plays itself a bit slowly, CGI isn't the best you can get these days, there are many fictional subplots interwoven by the ones responsible for the screenplay, also there are some emblems missing from the planes, most notably the Polish checkered logo and Donald Duck from Zumbach's (Rheon's) plane. Despite those slight omissions, and some fictitious plots it is quite enjoyable. It takes itself seriously, without pompous heroism nor wallows in martyrdom. It is a well organized, quite serious flick that makes you think. Most people didn't realize it at the time but Poland lost due to the fact that before the war there were only 20 years of freedom, hence the military was not ready to deal with Germans' forces. There were atrocities committed all over Poland, but some people were able to flee and add to the allied effort, it's great that they're getting the recognition they had deserved. I highly recommend it to anyone, even though it might be a bit uncomfortable for some British to watch.

Thank god the Polish fighter pilots were there to help us win the war, don't know if Britain would have survived without the 303 Squadron. They stopped the Nazis invading us! Its amazing how a handful of pilots turned the war.
