I’ve always enjoyed the character of The Rocketeer, it’s high-flying adventure, and of course the era it was set in, so I was all for seeing the movie, and with a cast like Timothy Dalton, Bill Campbell, Jennifer Connelly (sigh), and Alan Arkin… I was in.

Featuring a score by James Horner that I still whistle, and would love to find the soundtrack album at some point, this film gets thrown on at home on a fairly regular basis.
