Review of Airborne

Airborne (1962)
A mediocre film
6 February 2013
Warning: Spoilers
*Spoiler/plot- Airborne, 1962. This film follows the induction of young, friendly, naive soldier into 1950's US Army and into paratrooper jump school with his barrack's mates.

*Special Stars- Bobby Diamond, Robert Christian, Whitey Hughes.

*Theme- Country common sense in recruits will win the day in combat.

*Trivia/location/goofs- Filmed at paratrooper jump school Fort Bragg. When Bobby Diamond's 'Fury' TV series ended, his father produced this film to help in the transition for Bobby to be an adult male marketable working actor. I'm not sure it worked.

*Emotion- A mediocre film starring a teen-age kid's TV show star. The plot has all the comedy and dramatic military stereotypes with very little interesting plot twists to make this will worth your time. It's a time capsule that maybe does NOT need to be opened.
