They all share their amazing war stories and life memories with great humility and warmth.

Greatest-generation stoicism meets gushing contemporary sentiment in Honor Flight.

Few would fail to be touched by these stories, or by the sight of these men having generations of kids and grandkids gather to celebrate their accomplishment.

By John DeFore FULL REVIEW

The New York Times

Dec 7, 2012

The film might have made a decent end-of-broadcast segment on a newscast. But inflated to feature length and devoid of nuance or fresh insights, it just seems self-congratulatory - aren't we great for having done this for these old guys? - and exploitive.
