I think I will have to put Tora! Tora! Tora! on the Christmas DVD list with Gandhi and A Bridge Too Far. I'm pretty sure I watched it years ago but I do not have much of a recollection of it.

The only redeeming features of the film Pearl Harbour to me is the excellent music (particularly during the Japanese cutscenes) and the very well chosen Japanese actors and filmography. This whole scene gives me the chills whenever I watch it...even if at one part you can tell it's filmed from a modern US angled flat-top. EDIT: Oh, yeah, and the deck is completely wrong for an IJN flat-top too, no wood.

AND Josh Hartnett is a total hotty!!!!!!!
