This film focuses on the later years of Howard Hughes' life. It shows his success in film and aviation innovations. And through out shows the further development of his obsessive-compulsive disorder. Because of this the story is rather sad. It is hard to understand why they tell this story, but in the age of biopics gallore, here is another one. It may be that this is the story of the American dream, a rags to riches story, even though the irony is that no one would want the life that Howard Hughes had. The visuals are really well done, and the acting is good too.

Not trying to pick nits, but the movie (from what I understand) avoids the later part of his life, where he got blood transfusions every day from Mormmons and wore Kleenex boxes on his head and feet because he thought they kept out germs. I'm not joking.
