Fighter jets as Sex Toy

Rating: 5/10 (7 April 2019)

Did you know a 13 yr old Christian Bale had his first orgasm by watching fighter jets? He plays a dufus british kid who worships Japanese zeros, kamikaze pilots, and, most strangely of all, a wimpy grifter played by Malkovich. Joe Pantolino adds flavor & Ben Stiller adds head-shaking "Huh?". Oh, & a used-to-be-cute middle-aged, married british woman gets wet whenever she sees the 13 yr old Bale. Those were the days. Spielberg wraps it all up with lots of big pieces of oppressed Chinese running around in the beginning & lots small pieces of oppressed british milling around in the middle & lots of rising suns & setting suns & Bale idol-worshipping random nonsensical things throughout.
If you ignore the script & the details of the story, it is a well-made film. Otherwise, "Huh?"
And don't forget: Eat Your Weevils. If you don't eat your weevils, how can you have any pudding?
