one word-Josh Hartnett!

Rating: Null/10 (7 October 2002)

Well at first i was reluctant to see this film as it seemed like another boring film but i tagged along with my friends when going to the cinema.Well it got off to a good start and i was actually gaining interest in the film and by the end of it,it was exceptionally good. The effects are mind-blowingly realistic and excellent,the acting is superb and you're drawn into the film by this.The storyline is great and it really takes you back in time to 1941 on that fateful December 7th.
Its the story about two young best friend pilots and one of them has to go to help the British in World War two while the other stays to help America in their arrival in the war.There is then an awkward love triangle going on between Danny,Rafe and Evelyn which tears Rafe's and Danny's friendship apart during the bombing of Pearl Harbor,However they make up for the 'Doolittle project which involves them flying to Japan and bombing it.A very dramatic and touching ending finishes the film off.
The best bit is the two young fine actors-a la Josh Hartnett and Ben Affleck.Ben Affleck once again wowed the audience as he stepped into Rafe McCawley's shoes but Josh Hartnett!A stunning performance from the young actor has guaranteed his place in Hollywood's finest.Although he hadn't made the greatest debut in films such as 'The virgin suicides' and 'Here on earth',he's certainly made an impression now.
The end isn't the greatest of films but personally it's an excellent, historically educational film that earns its place in Hollywood's best remember films.Its a must for all of you.
