Avoid watching the 2001 Pearl Harbor movie with Ben Asshat:
I love Roger Eberts critique of the movie: Quote:
IMO he nailed it too...

I. Love. That. Movie. I don't care how bad it is! I'll stand up for it! And no! I haven't seen Tora Tora Tora! and I should be kicking myself in the rear because of it!

Just finished Threads...
That was great and properly depressing! I loved it.... It's kinda hard to tell people you liked that movie in light of the second half of it. I give it 5 out of 5.

"Pearl Harbor" is horrible there is no other way to put it no self respecting person that has an interest in military history should like this film because it is horribly inaccurate on so many levels that it frankly is insulting.
The Zeros had the wrong paint scheme you can see modern naval vessels during the attack they fly the incorrect model of P-40 they show the wrong type of .50 cal(they had water cooled .50cal AA guns at that time) the acting is horrible and the scenario that the two fighter pilots go from being fighter to the best B-25 pilots in a matter of weeks to be considered the cream of the crop is utterly ridiculous.The acting is also horrible the film has no redeeming qualities besides perhaps to make you realize how great "Tora Tora Tora" is. "Tora Tora Tora" on the other hand is an outstanding film and is fairly accurate it also respectfully displays the Japanese perspective. Go watch "Tora Tora Tora" and burn your copy of "Pearl Harbor" if you have one it is the honorable thing to do. |

Thirded, vastly superior to Pearl Harbour, although I do like the choreography of the Japanese parts of Pearl Harbour and the music that goes with it, that's about the only thing I like of it to be honest, the rest is garbage and Tora! Tora! Tora! is much better.
