   Pros: Good Backstory on Howard

   Cons: Story wanders around and looses you.

   I would consider this an ok movie, the first half of the movie holds your interest, he films the longest movie made to date several years to finish it, then about halfway through the film howard starts going nuts and the story jumps around between his (failing) plane business and his women and his home theater full of pee jars(nice)and howard crashing test planes along the way.
   End the end he gathers his marbles to go before a panel set up by his airline competitor/played by alec balwin .
   He tells them all to kiss off and then flys his giant plane to further thumb his nose at all doubters of howards vision.
   The acting cast is great lots of big names, including a bit part by gwen from no doubt. sweet. ...
