1941 -- A Comedy? Directed by Steven Spielberg (Lean And Mean III Review)

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2004
The Bottom Line: 1941 was a film with a good idea at its center, that was made terribly. Bad acting coupled with bad writing was a killer here.
Review: Some movies have a hard time trying to stick with a specific theme, or genre when they are planned for an audience. In the case of 1941, we have a film that at the time, may have seemed fitting, but since then, has become a drab mix of failed comedy...

Unjustly trashed comedy classic.

Date of Review:  Jun 23, 2000
Review: One of the most satisfying things about reviewing movies is that you get to defend the ones you love. Steven Spielberg's 1941 is a film that has been ridiculed, vilified and just plain hated since it was released in 1979. Yes, it's way overdone and...

1941: Attempt to create a madcap war spoof becomes Spielberg's Folly

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2009
The Bottom Line: Over the years, many filmmakers have made great comedies set during World War II. Unfortunately, 1941 is not one of them.
Review: If we look at every current successful Hollywood director's filmography, we are bound to find several failed projects or "could have been contender" films that, for some reason or another, failed both critically and popularly at the box...

And Yet, They Allowed Him To Continue Making Movies . . .

Date of Review:  Jan 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: Despite generally talented cast members, "1941" is terribly unfunny and it demeans the career of Steven Spielberg to consider he ever directed it.
Review: Sometimes, there comes a movie that is so terrible that all one wishes to do is erase it from their memory. "Wrong Turn," which is my all-time most hated movie is almost completely forgotten by me. I know I don't like "Wrong Turn," but I don't even...

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad War Comedy.

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: Great extras, bad movie, cheap price. Your call.
Review: Steven Spielberg has directed many box-office successes over the years, most of them certifiable modern classics. But even the best directors have their misfires, and 1941 would be at the top of his admittedly short list. Critically savaged and...

A Sleeper You Oughta See!

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2000
Review: We all have a list of movies in our head that we thought should have been received better than they were. "1941" is close to the top of my list. I have never understood why Steven Spielberg didn't score big with it, but I have watched it many times...

Date of Review:  Mar 15, 2000
Review: Did you ever have one of those days when you just want to plug in a movie that makes you laugh, without being concerned with deep plot twists and involved characters? Then this is the one! Pearl Harbor is fresh in everyone's mind, and they are...

Date of Review:  May 15, 2000
Review: This legendary box-office dud from superstar director Steven
Spielberg is like an "Airplane!" or "Naked Gun" parody made with
all the spectacle and epic scope that Universal Pictures could
buy. But Spielberg doesn't know how to be as...

1941: Too Funny!

Date of Review:  Nov 13, 2000
Review: I was perousing through the digital channel guide earlier this afternoon when I saw "1941" in the list. Never hearing of it I switched to it, thinking it was a history film. I was WAY off, but I turned it on and my life has been changed forever (ok,...
