Not a bad movie at all. But, not a particularly good movie either, unfortunately. It's worth the money to watch it though.

I actually ended up liking this a lot more than I thought I would. Leonardo DiCaprio does a great job capturing Howard Hughes, from the highs and lows. The supporting cast is also great. A period piece that perfectly captures the era.

Not a typical Martin Scorsese movie, but this one will really get ya. With incredible cinematography, an amazing performance by DiCaprio, a beautiful score, not to mention a true story, it became one of my favorites.

Let Me See The Blueprints

What an incredible biopic about Howard Hughes, one of the most eccentric human beings who ever lived. I will admit that Leonardo DiCaprio was totally robbed out of the Oscar for this [going to that dreadful "Dirty Harry" loser Clint Eastwood], as was the brilliant directing by Martin Scorsese. When will the Oscar finally give in to giving DiCaprio his win!?

HOWARD HUGHES

Got to know more about Howard Hughes from this film. I am really so impressed by the great acting of LEONARDO DICAPRIO. I thought his youthful countenance could be an obstacle. But he did it! One of his shining moments as an actor indeed.

See It

I didn't like the using Gods name in vain. Other than that..... One of the most well crafted movies of all time. Leo really brings Howard Hughes to life. Cate Blanchette gives a great performance. Martin Scorsese shows why he is one of the masters of storytelling. When it comes to the Oscars, Leo had tough competition against Jamie Foxx for Ray. The movie itself had tough competition up aganist Sideways, Ray, and the winner Million Dollar Baby. Overall, a fantastic movie.
