    Bad movie, even worse DVD, 2008-11-02
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.
br /But enough of bashing a movie that's already been bashed to death.

br /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.
br /
br /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.
