Bad and fascist war movie

Rating: 3/10 (29 December 2005)

Propaganda with capital letters. That's the subliminal message of the movie. Show that the Americans will never be stop by anyone. Talk about Pearl Harbor means to talk about politics, and that's impossible to avoid. When Balck Hawk Down shows such that thin red line from the side of the madness and lost heroes, this shows that war is not just funny, but is a place to meet the perfect girl and to save your country without getting dirty. How many people like this movie? well, the percentage of lovers is almost the same as the percentage of loathers, so it's pretty equal. I don't like the politic plot of the movie, but the director's work is impossible to spank. Michael Bay stills one of the best action directors in the world, and his editorial work is award worthy. But the screenplay is not good, damn, is just not good, and that's all. Ben Affleck is not a war hero, in action movies he loses the expontaneous genius of Chasing Amy or Dogma, and Cuba Gooding Jr is impossible to make another believable work since Jerry Maguire. My verdict: Good action movie. Bad war movie. And their attempt was to make a war movie, not an action flick.
