I slept

Rating: 1/10 (1 June 2001)

Oh my God, there are actually people who LIKED this movie?
People, forget the critiques that PH is historically inaccurate. Plain and simple, it's a lousy movie. Its entertainment value is confined to the 45-minute blitzkrieg on Pearl Harbour. THAT was a SFX tour-de-force.
The rest of the movie SUCKED:- the love story SUCKED, the dialogue SUCKED, the ending SUCKED, the acting SUCKED. There was one incident of comic relief that had me chortling - where this guy put some ointment under his eyes to look dewy-eyed for a girl. Other than that, attempts at levity SUCKED.
And mind you, I was determined at all costs to be entertained, having paid 50 Ringgit to see a charity screening (that's a lot considering the normal ticket price is 9 Ringgit). After the attack sequence, I slept during the anti-climactic Doolittle raids. Somebody tell me the ending, 'coz I sure as heck ain't watching this movie again.
