Dicaprio/Scorsesse blow you away with this one!

Rating: 10/10 (1 January 2005)

The Aviator is an impressive cinematic experience to say the least! Leonardo DiCaprio continues to get better with each film, and this time, behind the legendary direction of Martin Scorsesse, he might just be handed a statue come Oscar night. For this viewer the early years of Billionaire Industialist Howard Hughes (as depicted in the film) could not have been more captivating, Dicaprio nails it! An outstanding supporting cast, including brilliant performances from Alec Baldwin, Ian Holm, Kate Blanchett and John C. Reilly. I recommend this film for anyone who would like to be swept away to the early-mid 1900's, for a look into the genius of Howard Huges' life.
