Loved it!

Rating: 10/10 (7 January 2002)

A professional critic said of this movie that "women will love it and men will sleep through it". Well, this woman DID love this film and doesn't think anyone will be able to sleep through it. Yes, like "Titanic" this is the telling of an historic event through a fictional love story. It's a mix of soap opera characters, "Top Gun" action and a history lesson. And for me, it works. I learned more from this movie about the events surrounding the attack on Pearl Harbor than I ever did in history class, while still being highly entertained. Yes, some may find the love story campy, some may find it predictable, some may find this movie way too long..but I found it just plain good start to finish.
