At first glance Stealth looks like it will be a flop. When I first saw the trailer I instantly got the message that this movie would suck.

But consider this. Star Actor Jamie Foxx has been on fire lately. Last year he won an Golden Globe award, and an Oscar award for his portrayal of Ray Charles in the acclaimed movie Ray, and Jamie followed that up with and excellent, role as the cab driver in the movie Collateral with Tom Cruise. Jamie Fox is on fire and that alone gives me pause to rethink my initial impression.

Secondly, Stealth has one of the hottest young female actresses Jessica Biel playing the part of Lt. Kara Wade, a tough military pilot who is considered to be one of the best pilots in the air force.

Veteran actor Sam Shepard rounds off the cast as Capt. George Cummings. Sam is an excellent character actor who will add some believability to the movie. Sam Shepard is most notably movie roles are from; The Notebook, Black Hawk Down, Swordfish, and The Pledge.

After watching more then just the trailer played before Star Wars episode III, I think this movie might actually be good. I might just go out on a limb and watch this action thriller in the theater.

Cast of the movie Stealth
Josh Lucas .... Lt. Ben Gannon
Jessica Biel .... Lt. Kara Wade
Jamie Foxx .... Lt. Henry Purcell
Sam Shepard .... Capt. George Cummings
Joe Morton .... Capt. Dick Marshfield
Richard Roxburgh .... Keith Orbit

Maybe, it will be a suprise to us all. Remember Firefox with Clint Eastwood? Now that was a great film back in the day.

Firefox was a great movie! I remember when it came out people had similar doubts, saying things like Clint Eastwood was too old... and how good could a movie be about an aircraft... blah blah blah..

The movie was good... so your right Mr. Film Stealth could be similar... lets hope

For some reason I thought Angelina Jolie played a bit part in Firefox but I couldn't find her in the cast list.... wonder if it is my faulty memory.

I like the idea. It has some potential. I have always been one to like the type of movie that has new technology that gives you the impression that it isnt as far fetched as one would think. We have planes , drones and weapons that exist today that have this capability. They just lack self awarness. I think we are not to far away from that now as we have hard drives that are being made from live protiens that have to be fed and watered to be maintained.
Now that I have said that, I cant seem to recall the name but there was a movie I seem to remember that followed this idea very closely. Im going to have to do a bit more searching on this one.
Ok now that I have said that.. Jessica Beil mmmmmmmm How bad could this movie be, as I recall there is a swim suit clip, maybe more.
Ill keep my eyes on this movie.
