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

 Too long for a bad movie. November 21, 2008
My first impression about this movie: too much overrated and hysterical. Check other parodies, like Dr. Strangelove which is shoter and much better than this.
 Very funny! November 7, 2008
So what did some of you people do- Get tired of surfing porn all night and decide to jump on the bandwagon of people that have bashed this movie because the critics originally bashed it?? I can watch this movie over and over- What's not to like?? Because some of it is slapstick?? Because it's not PC?? Because it's not deep-seeded intellectual humor like the latest Adam Sandler trash??? This is a great movie with outstanding (for the time) special effects, great characters, and lots of funny scenes! I especially love the drunk lumberjack (Slim Pickens) trying to chop down a Jap Soldier (in camoflage as a pine tree) and Belushi falling off the wing of his plane! My name is Wild Bill Kelso- and don't you forget it!!
 Bad movie, even worse DVD November 2, 2008
It's pretty much agreed that "1941" is Steven Spielberg's career low. He himself called this movie his failed attempt to make a National Lampoon flick. This film is full of gags and would be jokes that bomb (pun intended). As a matter of fact the only funny scene in this movie is the introduction which is a clever parody of Spielberg's own "Jaws". It's a shame really, considering this movie starred such big names of the day such as John Belushi, John Candy, Dan Ackroyd, Tim Matheson, and others.
But enough of bashing a movie that's already been bashed to death.
If there is anyone who wants to see this movie out of sheer curiosity, they might as well skip this disc. The DVD is presented not in anamorphic widescreen but in letter box, which means if you have a high definition television the black bars at the top at bottom will take up about half the screen leaving a squat, yet wide picture. Also, the picture sound quality are dismal and flat screen TV's will pick up all the flaws, making this movie look like a VHS movie recorded off a TV station on the EP mode. This is a bad movie on even a work disc.
The only redeeming feature on this DVD is the "making of" documentary which goes into details of how the movie was a failure. The doc is actually more interesting than the movie itself which should never be the case. This is one to avoid.
Great Steven Spielberg Film! August 20, 2008
This movie changed my life entirely. When I first heard of it, I thought, "since it's a Steven Spielberg film I thought it was going to be a movie really about world war II, but it actually was a parody of world war II films. Even at tHe begining of this movie, I laughed my bottom off! It also has a magnificent cast including John Belushi and Dan Akroyd. (a.k.a. The Blues Brothers) Although a very long movie, you will definitly enjoy it. I would even pay you to see it. But i'm not aloud to, i am only 11 years old. Please type your comments. And one thing SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
