    Virtue aside, however, Red Tails is a lousy film. Not wincingly bad, mind you, just mediocre.

    Admittedly, it's been a long time since Kelly McGillis was being hyped as "the next Grace Kelly." But of all the films in all the world for whom the former Top Gun lust object could have done a walk-on, this lacklustre haunted-house feature is the one she chooses?
