Watched this for the first time the other day, not knowing really anything about it. Still don't know much about the comic it is based off, but speaking on the movie alone I thought it was decent enough. Considering this came out almost 30 years ago, the effects were pretty good. The Rocketeer definitely gives me the impression of a steampunk hero.
I can't recall Billy Campbell being in anything significant since, and kept thinking to myself that he looked like Billy Zane; perhaps it was the hair. We all know the successful career Jennifer Connelly has had. Timothy Dalton was the stand out as the vile villain.
Not quite Indiana Jones, but gives off similar vibes, especially since it's the same time period. Imagine Indiana infused with Iron Man. A fun family action flick.
