A seven-minute video hyping LucasFilms' "Red Tails" movie, executive produced by George Lucas, has hit the Web -- and it's a rush (see below).

Collecting scenes from various points in Anthony Hemingway's action-drama, the adrenaline-packed video is filled with aerial stunts and other clips from the movie, which is inspired by true events. It also features appearances by a pipe-toting Cuba Gooding, Jr.; a very serious Terrence Howard; and a Southern-drawling Bryan Cranston.

The clip starts with Tuskegee Airmen -- black members of the U.S. military who served during World War II -- obliterating a train. There are more action sequences, interspersed by narrative scenes that provide background information about the plot.
