Funniest. AVIATOR. Review. Ever.
Posted by Jill | 1:19 PM

Of course you all know that in my own personal pantheon of gonzo film reviewers, Vern has no equal. Still, every now and then Mark Ramsey of Movie Juice comes up with a showstopper.

Actually, The Aviator isn't as big a target as you'd think. It's not as good as it should be, given that it's Capital-S-Scorsese, but it's a good-looking, well-paced, enjoyable film. So that Ramsey was able to come up with a snark index this high is pretty impressive.

I myself spit out my tea and nearly coughed my lungs out at Jude Law being a cinematic Whack-a-Mole. How about you?
