The Aviator review by Swambi
Yaaawn

This film attempts to give a biography of Howard Hughes. Although a strange story, I didn't find it inspiring. It lasts about 2 and 1/2 hours (but seems longer)!
Despite being constructed as an epic, the filming and acting fail to engage. The focus is mainly on Howard's involvement with airoplanes - filming, flying, owning, building and crashing. Whether you enjoy the film is likely to depend largely on whether this interests you.
It also outlines his increasing paranoia, relating to obsessive cleanliness and isolation from others. In between there are a few sessions examining his relationships with others, which demonstrate how his wealth and obsessions wrecked any ability to relate meaningfully.

The Aviator review by Nikkinoo
Slow but interesting!

Very interesting storyline that does develop very slowly but somehow keeps you glued to the screen! Leo plays the role of movie maker and aviation expert Howard Hughes superbly, with Cate Blanchett playing lover Catherin Hepburn equally well.
In brief this film follows Hughes from the 20's to 40's following his career and his fluctuating mental health. It is highly emotional and everything you expect from a period film of this nature, and a bit more!
