Sappy history lesson for today's generation

Rating: 5/10 (7 July 2002)

Trying to tell the event of Pearl Harbor, adding tidbits of actual accounts of heroics and intertwining the whole thing in a three way love affair is sort of sappy and silly. Not much different from Titanic, where they both try to recreate everything to exactly as it happened, except for the syrupy love story, which so happens to be the main plot instead of the actual event the title of the movies implies.
I don't know why I even saw the movie, I guess when you have a DVD/HT setup, you rent a-lot of junk movies just for its special effect.
I guess whatever it takes to bring the young ones in and learn a bit of history.
