Sentimental Twiddle-Twoddle

Rating: Null/10 (28 December 2001)

Fantastic special effects! Ok, that's it. Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad dialogue. Shallow predictable characters in unlikely situations. Historically laundered and improbable. Gaping holes in story timing/continuity.( E-mail me for details). Worst of all, the awful historical references. "Downtown London" (?? has anyone *ever* heard that phrase?) The Japanese did *not* retreat as a result of Doolittle's attack. They fought extremely hard until the bitter end, 3 years later. To suggest otherwise means we won right there. The inevitable death scene sucked, and reminded me of a bad 50's B-film. (" I'm so cold " !!). Not to mention the "crucifixion" symbolism. Awful. Truly insulting. Thank God for rentals. Great minute per dollar value, just like K-Mart.
