Great special effects and then there's Miss Beckinsale

Rating: Null/10 (13 June 2001)

You can call me a sentimental sap. I don't care. People complain about the slow buildup to the actual attack. My two favorite films of all time are the original 'King Kong' and 'Titanic'. Both films have long buildups to their thrilling second halves of the film. "Pearl Harbor' also builds up to its stunning semi conclusion. Again, I don't care. I fell in love with Kate Beckinsale the second I saw her. She is so beautiful. Kate does a wonderful job. I don't care too much about the 2 guys she falls for, but I certainly respect their taste in women. I was terribly moved when the attack took place. What a horrible sight it must have been to actually been there in person! I enjoyed 'Tora! Tora! Tora!' just as much as 'Pearl Harbor'. Both films are moving and entertaining. Did I tell you how lovely Kate Beckinsale was?
