An unbiased review by Ben’s father: |
"Perhaps the finest WWI aviation movie involving whoopee cushions and rubber chickens released this year. In addition to the humor, the movie offers lovely flying sequences created by mashing up old movies from archive.org. The 11-year-old filmmakers also put in surprisingly extravagant special effects given their budget of zero." |

"What marvelous mayhem (er, material) movingly motivated and manipulated by the mischievous mustachioed moppets of modern movie making!" |

“I believe that Perilous Skies has the chance to win an Academy Award, for Best Exposition in Scrolling Titles, Largest Mustaches in a Comedy, and, of course, Grippiest Key Grip and Best Best Boy.” |

"I love [the] new video. I'm very impressed with how professional it is. [Our granddaugher] is watching it for the 4th time. I think it is her new favorite video beating out her Garfield DVD. I'm going to send it on to [my sister] to share with her granddaughters. [They] did a great job. I like having the explanatory clips with [the DVD version]." |

"THAT is an excellent movie! Very well done. I really thought the scenes moved well from one to the next and the actors were very "professional". [Our daughter] watched it and wanted to see it again right away but unfortunately it was bedtime. A couple more movies with these kinds of special effects and George Lucas will be asking you for a job. Break a leg!" |
