If you let a second unit director direct a movie involving jet fighters and an AI-controlled jet fighter, then "Stealth" is pretty much what you'd expect. While the character build-up is threadbare, and the leap in logic needed to accept the AI-controlled jet fighter (UCAV) being able to follow internal directives to keep the conflict going in the movie is large and wide, it's a bumpy and mostly forgettable ride. It will appeal to the fast-action, blow-em-up crowd, and it has a bit of fun with the opportunities to launch missiles and create big loud explosions, just don't expect a taut screenplay that explores AI and stealthy military warfare.
I give it 2 stars, or a grade of C.
