Default Re: "Red Tails" movie has a classic Battlestar Galactica feel to it.

There's a good reason for that: A lot of BG was based on things from WWII. Even the viper pilots jackets and uniforms were styled to remind people of WWII flight jackets and uniforms. Cain was reminiscent of Patton and Adama played more of a thoughtful tactician like Eisenhower.
