1941 (DVD, 1999, Collector's Edition Widescreen)

1941. I saw this movie again for the first time in about 15 years and I forgot just how funny it is. So many popular actors. If you haven't seen this movie, do yourself a favor and treat yourself to night of laughs.

for an older movie this is still one good one. loaded with talent and comedy. at least three or four times a year i watch this movie just because i need a good laugh.

I always thought this was an awesome movie, since the first minutes of the first time I watched it as a wee lad. Its old fashioned slapstick, wacky, goofy, ridiculous humor the way they all should be. 1941 follows but also paves the way for all the great comedies of the old and new days. Slim Pickens and Dan Akroyd shine throughout this epic epidemic of random maniacal mayhem. It is a must have for any movie collector!

Extremely funny in a crazy way. Loved It! Purchased this movie for a Christmas gift and they loved it also!

One man's opinion, but in its original form this is a dizzy and fun romp. True that certain elements of the restored features make a little more sense of some of the characters - but that's not always a good thing. I love the original, and about 10-20% of the new material. Most of the restored stuff just makes the movie slow, and that is so disappointing...

To put it as simply as possible: 1941 is a very, very funny movie. It has some of the same actors that had roles in Animal House, so anyone who's seen that probably has some idea of how this movie might be. One thing to note though, is that this movie is nowhere near as dirty as Animal House is. It's quite a bit more family friendly. All in all, great movie. If you like funny movies with quirky storylines and a bit of action, then this is most definitely for you.

This was an outstanding comedy of errors!!! John Belushi was excellent and more than outstanding and as usual Dan Akroyd made the film along with an excellent supportive cast and Master Photography! I have both the Store Bought VHS & and home made one!

I expected much better from Steven Spielburg. Likewise for all the big name talent in front of the camera. It was a dull movie with too much slapstick comedy and lacked the depth I was expecting from such a talented crew. I don't know what happened but this is not the way to make a good movie.

While overall this movie is inconsistent and disappoints at times, it contains some scenes that are some of my all-time favorites in cinema. These sublime moments make up for the dumb parts of the film.

Particularly hilarious are Slim Pickens' scenes! The scene where Slim describes each ridiculous object the Japanese sailors have confiscated from him is just hysterical.

You gotta' love Warren Oates' portrayal of the paranoid home defense force commander - "...check 'im for stilts..."

Dan Aykroyd with two oranges covering his eyes and wearing pantyhose on his head saying, "I'm a bug"! is also a classic.

The music is great, especially John Williams' own swing music creation, "Swing, Swing, Swing" (a parody of the big band classic, "Sing, Sing, Sing") used during the USO scene. How about the big names sitting in on that recording session? Louie Bellson plays drums and Abe Most plays clarinet - both (may Abe rest in peace) are musical giants and their playing is inspired on this song. The brass section is hot, too, and playing about as tightly together as you will ever hear, especially the trombones, right up to the frenzied, awesome finale. Get the soundtrack recording - it is fun. Listen to the swing music song from Disney's, "The Emperor's New Groove" animated film: Clearly it owes some homage to this song in "1941."

Get "1941." Watch it. Fast forward through the dumb scenes. Enjoy the sublime scenes.

This is a classic slapstick 80's movie! It has a dynamic cast of many original SNL members. So if you're a lover of Candy, Belushi etc....... This one's for you. Please watch it more than once because you'll catch stuff you missed the first viewing garunteed.

Received the DVD quickly and it was new as advertised. Will watch this sellers store for mere DVDs.

One of my top 10 favorite movies of all time!! A great comedy with some of the funniest actors of the day and directed by Steven Spielberg...wonderful and fun !!

Wonderful acting, funny, and loved the way it all came together to create the gut busting ending. Full of big name actors and actresses and the music is superb with big band era and dancing. The geograpical locations most of this movie is shot in is FANTASTIC and breathtaking.

perfect transaction, very fast shippment, I would defenatly do business with this seller again. the product is as described and in perfect condition.

The Japanese "attack" on California what more can you say - certain laughs. John Belushi as a cigar smoking airplane pilot "Wild Bill Kelso".
This movie is classic John Belushi. I purchased this movie because I wanted to add it to my John Belushi collection.

Want to know a secret to a great movie? Wendie Jo Sperber. If she's in it you know it's going to be funny. i.e. Bachelor Party and "I wanna' hold your hand"

Fast Shipoping good seller ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

1941 is one of the movies I played in being a sailor. The first time I saw it when it first came out I did not like it at all. It was filmed in 1979. Going from scene to a completely different scene constantly bored me. But now I like it a lot. I find it very funny, and entertaining.

Good spoof on all the craziness that went on after the Japenese attack on Pearl Harbor. The period aircraft are very impressive,and the military equipment was very accurate. All in all a very good movie with a great cast.This is a movie i can watch over and over and never get tired of it

I would do business with a again. The item was shipped quick and was brand new just like described. Communication was good on when the item was shipped.

Could not deliver this movie. It was on the web page but after two weeks they recreated my account. I hade to contact them.

I bought this because it is a hilarious movie with a good amount of starpower. Steven Spielberg directed this movie. I bought this to add to my collection.
It is a story of west coast nerves just after the Pearl Harbor attack. John Belushi as Wild Bill Kelso was pefect for this role. It also stars Dan Ackroyd, Tim Matheson, Robert Stack, John Candy, and the list goes on.

great seller would buy from again. the movie was great, fast shipment, no scratches and worked perfect.
