Even though Alec Baldwin is a jerk, I was thrilled to see someone introduce Jimmy Doolittle (a larger than life character of the sort they don’t seem to make any more) to a new generation.

Yes. And rendered him as a bombastic a** who shouts orders and demeans his subordinates …The real man was a serious aviator who was concerned with the performance of his crews and did his utmost to ensure that they were practiced and capable of their mission…The character in that movie is as great an insult to the memory of a brave and accomplished flier, as was the fact that they “premiered” it before actual Pearl Harbor survivors and expected to be thanked for botching it.
