There's a woman , a "hero" male, the bad ones and a country or planet to be saved for which the male must sacrifice. I just described all Hollywood movies in a sentence ... of course there are exceptions but this one is predictable and cheap .

The pilots where payed a few millions for that mission ? Or is just patriotic hero crap ? To die for your president and fight in the air for free ?.

Watching the movie I did not get what motivates them to risk their lives at the highest extent ?.

That was one of the absurdities of this flick .
