Plot
The life of Howard Hughes.
Sinekatalog’s take
Scorsese's lavish portrait of Howard Hughes tracks his film and aviation triumphs while his mind begins to fray. DiCaprio is committed, the period flair is gorgeous, and the film is more exciting than moving.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
