I saw this movie in Aerospace class almost 10 years ago,(memories....) and I remember not being too impressed w/ it, but it was OK all the same, even though it was hard to tell us gutter children why the lead character is such pansy and why he don't just give his womyn good lovin'. I provided the answer,(Satan himself)Disney!!!!(Personally, she should've gone w/ Timothy Dalton, provided she didn't know he was a Nazi) I still it found it to be interesting, you've got more than one plot going on w/ an interesting array of characters(which overshadowed the cheesy stereotype-casting, like I said, I'm not a fan.) I also learned that they used real Nazi footage for the scenes that were projected and that we really did almost figure out how to get rocket-packs that could actually harness it's user from certain death (that is, if you can keep it from bursting vs. the power to be actually airborne vs. the ability of the user to fly acrobatically w/out breaking their neck, etc.) I'll give it a 7, hey does anybody notice that these movies don't point out why Nazi's are bad, assuming you didn't know (they didn't back in the 40's), irony and non-fandom are something you should take to this movie.
