The Aviator starts well but just fizzles out after about a hour. The Howard Hughes documentary is about the best thing on the DVD extras. I remember a TV movie of Hughes life with I think Tommy Lee Jones in the role and it was much more satisfying to watch.

The latest outing of Indiana Jones I'm sorry to report left me most unimpressed.
I cant really remember disappointing movies but I had hoped for great things of 2001 considering all the rave reviews I think I fell alsleep somewhere about the apes prancing about!! -
I doubt Lucas will ever let Howard The Duck out on DVD so no doubt it will become the new cult classic to replace Plan 9 from Outer Space. Mind you Willow wasnt to far behind it in terms of badness.
Yes, I would accept Dr Strangelove was saved by the many manic performances of Peter Sellers. I think Slim Pickens was the highlight.
I have never been sold to much on the Bourne movies. Too slick & unreal with bland acting.

Jar Jar Binks? must be the most universally disliked character Lucas ever created. I know no one who liked him. Yeks, just think there must be millions of figures of him in some dusty warehouse just beside Howard the Duck ones.
Has anyone ever seen that movie??? -
Have to agree with Chester on Star Trek movies. None of them have ever matched the series. The first Star Wars movie was great. The second was average the third starred
relatives of Fuzzy Bear. The latter three were a waste of space.
Looked forward to Planet of The Apes movie. Couldnt believe you could make a bad movie
but Burton did.
Waited 18 years to see Citizen Kane and when I finally saw it what was so great about it
why all the hype.
The first time I saw Bullitt I couldnt get what was so great about it but I did grow to love it.
Most disappointing movie has to be 2001 what a load of tosh. After that I discovered most movies made by Kubrick were the same. The Shining bored me to tears. His only good ones were Spartacus really a Douglas movie and The Killing which he made early on before everyone hyped him up as great director.
