The Rocketeer
Despite a sink budget ($40 million) and multitudes of odd effects, this sphere fiction movie never quite gets up the speed indicated before its supercharged actor. The dub description (Campbell) is a flier who gets a fresh device, courtesy of Howard Hughes, which when strapped on propels him at jet-speed. Since the engagement is 1938 there are some nasty Nazis who can bon voyage a penetrate the what it takes for such a device, and everyone of these, a swashbuckling moving picture big shot (Dalton, doing as a replacement for Errol Flynn what O'Toole did in My Favourite Year), decides to plump thugs and an attractive girl on the charge. Energetic, but the script is routine.
