Fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2013)

One of my most favourite Spielberg films... 1941 is a Jones family favourite the first time I watched this I nearly wet myself,I have so many favourite bits and lines,My brother and I can quote the whole film. the quality of the cast is unbelievable ,Robert stacks deadpan portrayal of the major general is excellent,the scene in the cinema where he's watching Dumbo just kills me. John Belushi's wild Bill Kelso,Dan Ackroyd as the sergeant,Treat Williams being an a*hole, Christopher Lee playing the German Captain.Ned Beatty as the hapless dad protecting his homestead and family,all offer no end of entertainment.i have never understood why this film was slated . If you like The BluesBrothers,Spies like us and Stripes (Sgt. Hulka) and other films of that ilk you will love this much maligned Classic(in my opinion) It's a perfect film for a quiet rainy Saturday afternoon which is funnily enough how I'm watching it right now....buy this film and enjoy it for what it is lighthearted entertainment watch out for the Ferris wheel scene you won't be disappointed
