A solid biopic from two masterful artists.

Rating: Null/10 (27 June 2018)

You can't go wrong with Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese. These two men are gifted artists and living legends of cinema. The Aviator is probably their least exciting duo. Films like Shutter Island, The Departed, The Wolf of Wall Street are some of the best of the 21st century and are consistently gripping and explosive, while films like The Aviator and Gangs of New York are more subtle in their execution. DiCaprio, as always, is terrific in his portrayal of Howard Hughes. He doesn't just read his lines and try to mimic the real-life figure, but he engrosses himself in his performance. Scorsese does a good job direction g the film, but this one isn't one of his best in the long run. Goodfellas will always be number one, and compared to other hits, The Aviator isn't much to remember. it's a well-made, one-time see kind of film that drags out for an astonishingly long time and doesn't leave you wowed or engrossed for for. Nonetheless, you'll be reined for the entire three Horus that your viewing the work of two masters.
