“Air Strike” (*** out of four) was a powerful WWII melodrama about the real-life Japanese bombings of Chongqing which are elaborately re-created in which 5 Chinese soldiers fought their way through the attacks to protect an important military machine. Bruce Willis plays a U.S. military advisor to the Chinese soldiers and Adrien Brody has a small role as an American soldier. Flawed to be sure with some dramatics and characters that don’t pay off but still has plenty of effective moments and good action scenes that recreate the notion of war being Hell. Mel Gibson and Vilmos Zsigmond were consultants on the recreation of the battle scenes. Made in 2015 and was unreleased for several years but worthy of its release
