The Year: 1991The Players: Billy Campbell, Jennifer Connely, former Bond Timothy Dalton, and Lost's John Locke as Howard Hughes
The Take: $47 Million
The Rocka-Who?: The Rocketeer is a superhero created in the 80's based on 1930's pulp heroes. He doesn't actually have any powers, just a jet pack and helmet. He is basically the Batman foe Firefly, but he isn't evil, and doesn't shoot fire.
Why you should see it: This is a fun flick which sticks to the expected superhero formula pretty closely. Its got some nice flight sequences and some nice blimp action. Basically, its a throwback to the days when movies were just good clean fun.
