* SoOkayItsAverage: One of the primary complaints about the film is that while it's competently made, it doesn't really hit any notable dramatic heights, and could have easily been mistaken for a typical drama filmed during the actual war, nearly to the point of being a ClicheStorm.
* SpecialEffectsFailure:
** In some scenes, especially the takeoff sequence, two different sets of nose art on several planes are visible on camera at the same time.
** When Mother and Country is hit by a Me-109, it's clearly a model. It also wouldn't be cleanly bisected like it was cut with a knife.
* TheWoobie: Stan and the rest of the rookie crew of Mother and Country have a very affecting FirstDayFromHell.
