A good history lesson !!

Rating: 8/10 (13 June 2001)

I would like to write a short review from a Germans point of view. First of all I would like to say: " I like this movie !". The reason for that is very easy to explain. Pearl Harbour gives us in Europe informations on World War II in the US. That's why I choose the Headline "A good history lesson". Everything I learned in school in Germany is about what happened in Europe and how cruel it has been for all the people. We never learned something about the activities in the US. We know that the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbour in a very perfidious way, but that was it. It was very easy to follow the story and the 2nd part of the story the relationship between Rafe, Danny and Evelyn the destinies linked to them entertains the people on the one side and shows them how cruel and uncertain this time must be for the people all over the world.
All in all It was a fantastic movie which entertains me and taught me very well.
