The Rocketeer

Its a great movie for all the family

The Rocketeer is as classic as they come. It saddens me that Disney doesn’t do more with it as a property. I’ve watched this movie on repeat since it came out.

Cool!

A beautifully-crafted and thoroughly entertaining movie. Grateful to all involved.

Fantatic film that deserves an audience.

This has and always will be my favorite movie as it made me love movies when I was a kid and will always do so. Highly underrated and family friendly. A true cult classic.

The Rocketeer is an incredible movie, but please release the incredible soundtrack that James Horner has composed. I truly wish upon a star.

This movie is amazingly underated. Forget your Iron Man and everything else this is a superb movie with a great soundtrack and has the feel of the original Indiana Jones (Please Exclude the Crystal Skull)

This is one of the best films Disney has ever made. Clean, wholesome fun for the entire family. Well worth the money.

I enjoyed this movie when it first came out because there wasn't much like it at the time. However, I watched it again recently and it's slow. Really slow. To make matters worse, most of the tension and suspense comes from the Rocketeer not really being able to fly very well. Billy Campbell is very likable in the role and Timothy Dalton is as menacing as an Errol Flynn-type character can be. Tiny Ron carves an imposing profile as the heavy, but his character strains suspension of disbelief by literally breaking people in half. Jennifer Connelly looks every bit the part of a starlet from the period and that plus the retro futuristic stylings somewhat makes up for Alan Arkin and the really slow pace of the film.
