Amazon.com:
Watching this director's cut, it's finally possible to see why the studio made Spielberg mercilessly hack up this comedy: it's a screaming movie (everyone screams a lot), and screaming movies do not need character development. So all those character-development scenes hit the cutting-room floor and, surprise, they were all critical to Spielberg's pace for the humor in this film. The screaming wasn't that funny then--and it still isn't--but what is funny are the reinserted development scenes, showcasing the now-evident sense of hysteria in the Los Angeles community, post-Pearl Harbor. A bunch of certified nitwits, and a few certified lunatics, act as if Tojo Hideki's entire Imperial force is just off the mainland. Actually, one Japanese submarine is, and it helps fuel the frenzy. John Belushi is Wild Bill Kelso, an insane fighter pilot, and Dan Aykroyd plays a conciliatory tank commander. Robert Stack's performance as General Stilwell, one of the best of the film, finally makes sense. Also fun for the numerous cameos, Spielberg's inside jokes, and John Williams's great score. --Keith Simanton



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A very under-rated comedy
This film has always gotten a bad rap from the crittics. But don`t let that bother you, it really is a very funny film.
It all revolves around the fear of a Jap invasion of CA right after Pearle Harbour. There are plenty of nuts running wild and even
one or two reasonably sane characters. It`s non-stop gags and non-stop laughs. If anything it`s too wild and crazy. Not the best
timing, with too many things going on at once.
Still, I give it 4 stars just for the shear number ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A great story but lousy DVD
A great comedy that is best enjoyed in Full Screen. This DVD is not only mailbox it is a severe version of mailbox which ruins the entire story. Only buy this DVD in Full Screen. This letterbox version is not enjoyable.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Quick and Easy
I have been looking for this movie for some time now. Amazon made my purchase affordable, quick and easy. Recieved my product faster than anticipated.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic-Just Classic
What can you say about this movie that hasn't been said? This movie is pure comedy from start to finish. The all star cast is probably one of the greatest generations of comedic actors which we will ever see on film. If you haven't seen this spoof on America's reaction to Pearl Harbor and entering WWII, don't pass it up - it will have you rolling from the opening scene to the credits.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - quickly delivered classic
The seller shipped quickly and delivered as product as promised. I have used the seller again.
