How to turn defeat into victory while boring your audience to death. A film for sleepy drunks only.

Rating: 1/10 (26 February 2002)

I sat through this absolute dog of a film only because during an insane moment I had bought the thing on DVD. The dialogue is wooden and the film is essentially a confused and irritating attempt to turn the incompetent disaster that was Pearl Harbor into an American triumph because of a revenge mission added to the end of what is already an interminably long, long film. A love story takes up the first hour, the second is a special effects video of the bombing raid. The third is a typical piece of American feel good "impossible" mission carried out by the 2 central characters. Isn't the USA capable of watching a movie in which they don't win?
In short, an exercise in how to turn defeat into victory while boring your audience to death. A film for sleepy drunks only.
