Awesome movie that shows the raw brutality of Pearl Harbor attack

Rating: 9/10 (27 October 2005)

If you think that this movie casts an ugly light on the Japanese, you obviously do not know your history. What happened at Pearl Harbor is well documented, and it would behoove you to read it before stating ignorant half truths and showing the entire world what a buffoon you are. If you hate the movie fine, but don't hate it for it's portrayal of the Japanese or anyone else. Let bygones be bygones, but the Japanese invasion on Pearl Harbor was just what the movie portrayed: an unprovoked attack that left thousands of Americans dead. After the attack came the Doolittle raid, yes, but more importantly, a very long and grueling war on all fronts. If you must protest the American response, protest the bomb...oops too late. In retaliation for the most ignorant and thoughtless attack on American soil, the US destroyed an entire city in a matter of seconds. I'm not going to say that the US did right by dropping the A bombs on Japan, but I will not watch someone spout their mouths saying that the Japanese did not commit such an atrocity as was shown in the movie. The attack was real, the pain and death was real. Sometime take a flight to Honolulu and pay a visit to the Arizona memorial. Yell through the water to the bones of those still trapped inside that they only died because they were in the USNavy during a war, and that the Japanese did not attack them and kill them in cold blood. Again, learn some history before spouting that garbage, please.
