Aviator - Sequel to Bugsy or how do i put it ?? Bugsy II

I watched Aviator today. yeah its an achivement as I have a hectic sckedule these dayz.

(Yes this is a movie review Ladies n Gentlemen. This is kind of a Writer Review). I had watched one Hollywood Classic Bugsy sometime back. And this movie Aviator seems to be similar in many respects to Bugsy.

The Protagonist happens to be a Baddie with striking Personality and a Great Will power. He dreams Big and the un-imaginable. Meet the Aviator or Benjamin Bugsy as it appears to me.
While Bugsy was based on a True Life incident. Aviator has no parallels in history AFAIK ( or are there any ?? ;-) )well the Story writer it appears did not like the ending of Bugsy. In Bugsy Warren Beatty as the Bad Guy turned Hotelier has a craze for one Woman who ultimately steals all money from him.
Bugsy is a Movie about how Las Vegas was born. The Gambling industry started in the USA.
His hotel Flamingo is supposed to be the biggest Legal Gambling Jaunt ever.
Where Bugsy stops Aviator takes off. I mean Bugsy is resigned to his fate when all hell breaks loose and all the people he ever knew or did not know Turn against him. In Aviator the Story Writer paints his character with some physical disabilitys from the start.The movie proceeds on the same Lines as Bugsy but Deviates at the place Leonardo di caprio is down in the Dumps.

Aviator is about a guy who wants to build a Mighty Airplane which is Fast and Carry what a present day Boeing Jumbo Jet can carry. The film is set in the Post world war II 1947 Era. He also loves one of the leading ladies of his time and She comes to revive him out of his Sorry State of affairs. His Plane project is in trouble once he crash lands a plane in a Civilian area.

But The most amazing part is when the Committee formed to Try him for his crimes is outwitted by the Aviator. This seems to be the highlight of the movie. THis is where Bugsy was having a sad tale. I feel the 'Aviator' is the same wine in new bottle. Just the Ending has changed. Aviator Manages to outwit his rivals and comes out clean. Though Leonardo Di Capio manages to live upto the Aviator character. Somehow his dialogue delivery does not come any close to Warren Beatty.

The Story writer seems to have made a movie by just changing the last few Scenes from Bugsy :)

All said n done...Finally I wud rate the movie 5 on a scale of 10. And as to the Movie Writer. No Marks for him ;-)
