Entertainment Reviews:
...[With] extensive flying sequences, still the greatest in movie history...
USA Today
Rating: B --
The 1930 film has some major weaknesses -- most of the expository scenes, especially a creaky beginning -- but there's enough stunning stuff in it to make it worth seeing.

Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema
It's no sappy, imbecilic tale.

Variety
Rating: 3.5/5 --
Jean Harlow's screen debut isn't much to look at, to be honest. The air battles, however, are another story.
Filmcritic.com
The end result is barely adequate. But it does feature a spectacularly elaborate World War I dogfight, and an equally fine Zeppelin sequence. And of course there's Harlow.
Time Out
Rating: 2/5 --
Should be judged in context but even then it's a bit high on the melodrama and low on subtlety.

Empire Magazine
Despite being mauled by critics for its ludicrous story, Hell's Angels has undeniable grandeur in its aerial sequences.

Product Description:
This James Whale/Howard Hughes WWI drama is renowned for its stunning air combat scenes, which required 137 pilots to shoot, and for being the most expensive film of its time, costing a staggering $3.8 million. Oxford students and brothers Roy and Monte Rutledge (Ben Lyon, James Hall) sign up to fight with the Royal Flying Corps. Trouble arises when Roy's girlfriend, Helen (Jean Harlow), takes a liking to Monte. Monte, cracking under the pressure of fighting, considers another kind of betrayal. The brothers must wrestle to overcome these troubles--or a key flying mission could be jeopardized.
