I can't believe the script!

Rating: Null/10 (22 February 2002)

Granted Michael Bay directed this flick, and Jerry Bruckheimer produced it. I chose to give them the benefit of the doubt. I just never expected to utter the words, "he didn't just say that did he?" on so many occasions. I simply did not expect it to be this bad. How anyone could read this script and say "it's a go", is beyond me. This is among the worst movies I've ever seen. As a matter of fact, did any shot last longer than 20 seconds?
This flick was a direct slight to our men and women who lived through this attack. There was nothing here to cry over much less make you think of the magnitude of the destruction. The love affair, I swear daytime talk shows have had similar topics with more heart than this. If you thought it was touching in the film, you must not be able sit through an episode of Springer.
I'll just stop and say, if you really want to see some heart breaking WWII stories, see BAND OF BROTHERS. It makes Pearl Harbor seem like an after school special. No I take that back. Pearl Harbor IS an after school special.
