It’s no sappy, imbecilic tale. Read full review

The New York TimesMordaunt Hall
In every instance so soon as the producer forgets Helen, the flaxen-haired creature, and takes to the war, his film is absorbing and exciting. But while she is the centre of attraction the picture is a most mediocre piece of work. Read full review

EmpireIan Nathan
Should be judged in context but even then it's a bit high on the melodrama and low on subtlety. Read full review

Time OutStaff (Not Credited)
Saddled with an atrocious boy's own paper plot about a good brother and a bad brother, both in the Flying Corps and clashing over a girl, the end result is barely adequate. But it does feature a spectacularly elaborate World War I dogfight, and an equally fine Zeppelin sequence. Read full review

The New YorkerPauline Kael
The aviation footage is still something to see, with great shots of zeppelin warfare...But the First World War story, involving two brothers...is plain awful.
