an insult to the intelligence

Rating: 1/10 (3 June 2001)

it's very rare that i would want to be somewhere else after watching a film for 5 minutes, but pearl harbor pulled it off effortlessly. i looked on in horror as the film moved from one tired cliche to another. some fine actors were given the most unintentionally hilarious dialogue ever experienced. i'm sure if i was american i would love this film for it's patriotic merits, but everyone else in the world is going to see it as an expensive waste of 3 hours. the sad thing is that this film is going to be successful and tempt hollywood to make more of these vanity projects. DO NOT BE TEMPTED TO SEE THIS FILM.... this film is so awful, it even made me look at 'titanic' in a positive light.... believe me that IS saying something
