Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Sensitive, gripping, oddly old-fashioned cinema.

Time Out
Unashamedly commercial. Its moral fabric is thinner than that of other David Puttnam productions.

Variety
Monte Merrick's script is an unspectacular, cliche-riddled voyage from start to finish, with everyone lugging their own tote-bags of facile character idiosyncrasies.

Washington Post
...Watching MEMPHIS BELLE take shape is the most extraordinary thing....In the air MEMPHIS BELLE is unstoppable, giving us -- earthbound and safe -- a clear-eyed look at the nuts and bolts of bravery...

The brave young men of the B-17 flying fortress named Memphis Belle have just one more mission to fly over Nazi-occupied Europe and they will be on their way home to a hero's welcome. But this 25th mission will also be their most dangerous. Bombing target: Bremen. Fact-based drama.
Plot Synopsis:
Fact-based story about the 10 young crewmen of the Memphis Belle, the famed bomber that completed an impressive 25 flights during World War II. Both the final flight of the plane, and its good-looking crew, become the target of a huge publicity scheme created by the armed forces in order to sell more war bonds.
