Movie Reviews of Pearl Harbor (Two-Disc 60th Anniversary Commemorative Edition)
Movie Review: Quite Possibly the Best War Movie I've ever seen
Summary: 4 Stars
Good actors good plot great picture. That's Pearl Harbor in a nut shell.
It was about the best war movie I'd ever seen. And I usually don't even like movies about war especially world war 2. But this movie was great it had good actors and actress's in it and really aside from the civilians who die in the Pearl Harbor bombing only one good guy dies. This is much better then allot of the war movies I've seen in the past like "Enemy At The Gates", "Hamburger Hill", "Red Dawn", and "The Longest Day" (quite possibly the most boring war movie ever created). It is much much more then just a bunch of stupid world war 2 battles.
Movie Review: Why are there so many haters in our world????
Summary: 5 Stars
I just don't understand how this movie got so much criticism and thumbs-down remarks. This is by far my favorite movie up-to-date, and it takes a really super movie to get me to say it's my favorite. Alot of people said it was mushy and that the love triangle was unrealistic. Some reviews went as far as to say that the action sequences and the bombing were way too fictional and computerized.....
To begin with, let me just say that the World War II era fascinates me and I have read an enormous amount of literature (all true stories) from that time period. I also had a grandfather who fought during World War II who told me an endless amount of first-hand stories when he was still alive...... I've read and heard the stories, I know the facts.... what Pearl Harbor portrays in both the fight scenes and personal lives of the characters is historically correct. And the love triangle is not unrealistic. Things like that happened and still happen all the time. It is real life. It is reality.
So.... you haters need to stop hatin' and take this movie for what it is-- a heartwarming story of courage, patriotism, and true love that is vanishing more and more in our world of today.

PERFECT ACTOR!!!!!!!!!!!That's right,I ADMIT IT! I LOVE THIS FILM!!!!!!!!!!!AND TORA TORA TORA IS AN OLD OUTDATED PIECE OF JUNK!SO...HOW DOES THAT GRAB YA?Movie Review: Was This Movie Really Necessary?
Summary: 1 Stars
Hollywood cynicism knows no bounds in this "Titanic Meets Tora! Tora! Tora!" rehash. "Pearl Harbor" was made specifically for viewers too young to remember the Oscar-winning "From Here to Eternity." The producers could have saved a fortune by reissuing director Fred Zimmerman's 1953 classic - thus sparing us three hours of bad cinema. Nearly as embarrassing as the 1982 fiasco "Inchon." Movie Review: ITS A MOVIE NOT A DOCUMENTARY!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
After watching this movie I thought it was pretty good going on great. Then after reading the bad reviews I think the problem is that some people in historic/war movies look SO far into history and the exact little details that may be a little different in the actual movie.
Bottom line is when making a movie you can't show everything totally realistic and perfect. If you do that it will be just another educational documentary about pearl harbor.
You have to have main characters and you have to show the story of the horrible attack that was made on pearl harbor at the same time. I think they accomplished that very well. They showed the fiction love story and how the characters were living before the attacks as a lead in. Then Danny dies at the end to show how the attacks must have affected people personally who were involved, or had anyone close to them involved with pearl at all. The huge 40 minute scene of the Attack is in my opinion greatly done and shows the destruction brutally and vividly. Then when they show the first attack back, they were trying to show how America would band together, grow stronger, and eventually win WWII. I also must add all the actors did a very good job in their roles.
This movie was shown very well with great acting great special effects with i must add a great tandem being Bruckheimer/Bay. Also, screenwriter Randall Wallace who wrote Braveheart. Some people also have a problem with the love story but I think it goes good with the movie especially more on a personal and touching level after the attacks. And hell if you can deal with the love story in Titanic don't attempt to diss the love story in Pearl Harbor. So people need to stop looking so much into it and watch it for what it is. A MOVIE!!
