I didn't believe all the negative reviews. Boy was I wrong.

Rating: 1/10 (4 February 2020)

From the start this whole movie is set up to make the Americans look like saints and the Japanese like the boogie man.
Reality and history FACTS tell a very different story.
But it gets even worse.
In the beginning there is a scene with a plane landing on a carrier that is so beyond logic that only a person that is braindead would believe it.
And when the Japanese do their attack on Pearl Harbor it is a bloody miracle they didn't kill each-other with the way they are shooting their on-board cannons.
And then all that zoomed-in close-up shots of all the actors.
Why not zoom out a bit and show the scenery a bit more.

My advise is to view this movie as an example of how a movie can be bad for all te wrong reasons.
Now if you like to see a few good WWII pacific movies go and watch the original Midway from 1976.
And for another really good WWII pacific movie go and watch Tora Tora Tora (1970) as the much better version of Pearl Harbor. (2001)
