1941 could have been such a good film, I thought that with passing time it could improve, so I gave it many a new try.
Why did it not work out?
I never found out beside the name -boring--

and fails too as a Comedy, if Spielberg had made more effort to aim at making it either one thing or the other it could have worked a lot better
Apparently a painstaking recreation of how Los Angeles looked at that time; even the plane John Belushi flies is the correct type with the correct markings for a coastal squadron in that area at that time
I'm a car buff and there isn't a single post-1941 vehicle in the whole film....
