The Reason Hollywood Keeps Churning Out This Crap

Rating: 2/10 (23 October 2002)

"I was pleasantly surprised that the movie captivated my attention during the whole length. For those who are skeptical about it, it's primarily a love story, it's a great love story.I really enjoyed the movie, and recommend it to anyone that is looking for a great story."
Are you kidding? First, when you say the whole length, do you mean the same 3 hellishly boring hours that I'm thinking of? Second, it's primarily a love story... sure, I'll give you that. But I p**s on the people who cut the trailer that went on television showing it primarily as being a film about the militaristic event of Pearl Harbor. And then there's the fact that they named the damn movie after an event that deserves not a SHARE of the limelight with a crappy love triangle of attractive yet completely unconvincingly cast actors and actress, but deserving of more respect and attention than was shown. Third, it is not a great story, any way you slice it. It is so methodical and cheesy, it deserved several exclamations of "did he just say that?", or "i wonder what's coming next." I really knew this movie was a complete shame when the awkward scene of the wives resulted in Gooding's wife and the whole "whites only" discussion. YAK! VOMIT! Just read the title. People with such bad taste as the person I quoted are the reason crap like this keeps infiltrating the theatres.
