Midnight Eagle Synopsis & Summary

Synopsis

When a nuclear equipped, stealth-type American strategic bomber code-named Midnight Eagle bursts into flames during a routine training flight over the Northern Alps, an ex-war photographer turned nature-loving shutterbug attempts to prevent the missing weapons from falling into enemy hands. Based on author Tetsuo Takashima's popular novel of the same name, director Izuru Narushima's urgently paced action film stars Takao Ôsawa, Yûko Takeuchi, Hiroshi Tamaki, and Eisaku Yoshida. - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
