YUK...ANOTHER OVERHYPED HOLLYWOOD FLIK.

Rating: Null/10 (5 September 2001)

YUK!!! This movie sucks! I can add it to my Hollywood over-hyped suck list along with "Independence Day" and "Blair Witch Project." This movie bombed even without a Japanese zero in the sky. The movie is way over-hyped and bogus. It consists of a fictitious love story, which just happens to take place during a real historical event (Pearl Harbor). When I saw "Saving Private Ryan," the age of the people in the theater ranged from teenagers up to senior citizens. Some of the senior citizens were WW2 veterans, and proudly wearing their VFW hats. However, the age of the people in the theater for "Pearl Harbor" was more the teenage to college age crowd. Most of the young ladies in the theater only wanted to see the movie because of prince Ben (VOTE GOREOOPS, I FORGOT TO VOTE MYSELF) Afflect, and didn't really seem to care about the actual historical event. Has-been Alec (I'M LEAVING FOR CANADA.NOT..LEAVING FOR CANADA.NOT) Baldwin was another winner in this over-hyped flick. Of course, Tom Hanks (a real actor) has raised public awareness and $ for WW2 veterans as a result of his film. However, Alec Baldwin is still unpacking, and Ben Afflect is sitting in the drunk tank. If you want historical knowledge of the real attack on Pearl Harbor, then read a history book or watch the 1970 film "Tora..Tora..Tora." If you only want to watch a hollywoodish romance flick, then "Pearl Harbor" is for you. I give this trash two thumbs down!
