Michael Bay is a hack!

Rating: 1/10 (10 January 2002)

This movie robs the day of it's historical importance and replaces it with an incredibly annoying love triangle. The dialogue is laughable. The only point at which it is entertaining is during the attack. Even this is self-defeating in that it becomes entertaining purely on an action level, demeaning the event. See "Tora! Tora! Tora!" for a more intelligent, comprehensive, passionate, and ultimately more fulfilling movie about Pearl Harbor. Remember: Michael Bay = action tripe.
