Terrible Movie thrown together about an Important Historical Event

Rating: 1/10 (29 June 2010)

The battleship sequences were OK - not perfect but acceptable. But practically everything else sucked.
Trying to pass off Spruance Class Cold War era missile/anti-sub destroyers as WW2 destroyers - unforgivable. I don't understand why the effects guys didn't buy a few Gleaves class WW2 destroyer models from a model company and scan them into the effect computers. See this page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gleaves_class_destroyer)
Wooden acting by practically the whole cast (except for a few exceptions Cuba Gooding jr comes to mind)
Laughable scriptwriting with horrible dialogue.
Laughable plot twists (like ww2 single engine fighter pilots transferring to twin engine bombers and being assigned to the same mission).
Lame love story inserted into war movie for dramatic effect failing miserably
American Movie Classics is showing this right now on their channel and I have to laugh and ask myself "Why?" Is it to show people how bad a big budget American movie can be?
Please watch "Tora! Tora! Tora!" instead - a much better movie.
