GUARANTEED ENJOYABLE COMEDY ACTION ENTERTAINMENT

Rating: Null/10 (19 June 2001)

If you liked the old war-era POPEYE cartoons then you'll love "1941" !
It was great FUN when it first came out and its still enjoyable on so many levels ...
Opening gag alluding to JAWS, Slim Pickens doing his DR. STRANGELOVE homage, Chris Lee as a most despicable pulp villain, Robert Stack crying at a dumb DUMBO premiere, sexy Nancy Allen ... howza'bout Treat Williams doing his tuff GI bit in an amazingly choreographed USO dance-hall sequence that predates the fun of TEMPLE OF DOOM's opening dance number ?
This is a massive film along the frenetic lines of ITS A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD and Spielberg should be proud of it (which I am sure he is, despite the bashings he took from world film critics wanting to "put him in his place" at the time).
Way to go Steven ...
And thanks for all the fun ...
