Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
At the end of the day, The Rocketeer works because it's paying homage to the Saturday matinee serials.

Solzy at the Movies
This $40 million adventure fantasy puts a shiny polish on familiar elements: airborne hero, damsel in distress, Nazi villains, 1930s Hollywood glamor, and dazzling special effects.

Neat idea, peachy visuals, but there ain't much else to grip the imagination.

A fantasy adventure in the manner of Raiders of the Lost Ark, and for the most part it works.
