emotional, well-developed from pre-battle to satisfying counter-strike by Doolittle's Raiders

Rating: 8/10 (25 May 2001)

60 years later the depth of the surprise and the vulnerability of the USA is still dumbfounding... even the fact that FDR's crippling handicap was kept a secret is hard to believe...the love triangle works well, due primarily to the newcomers, not so much Affleck... and the Japanese wariness intrigues... a blockbuster, worth the three hours
