Go to Pearl Harbor...

Rating: 10/10 (28 May 2006)

then see this movie. Anyone who criticizes this movie obviously has NOT been to Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. Go there, see the REAL thing, go to the museums, take the boat ride out to the USS Arizona Memorial walk above the ship, smell and look at the oil that still leaks from the boat, talk to the guides who lived through it and then watch this movie.
Anybody who has the ability to criticize Hollywood for making this film and being as accurate as possible all while still making it entertaining has NO heart. There are more Japanese people at the REAL Pearl Harbor paying their respects than you can ever imagine.
Sadly there are more Americans on this board who've blasted this movie and ridiculed it....those Japanese people have more heart, soul and respect than the cowardly people on this site who criticize a movie that changed American history and in the process crap on the graves of all the men who died at Pearl Harbor!!
If standing over the USS Arizona and looking down at the ship and knowing the bodies of many of the 1100+ men that died on that ship that 7th day of December 1941 doesn't make your hairs stand on end and your heart skip a beat, you aren't an American nor a human with a soul.
