Honestly, it's eye candy; because it falls short in many respects; but it is fun to watch. You don't, with a few exceptions I'll abstain from mentioning (Okay, Waterworld is a fine example), spend the kind of money, $140 million or more in 2001, and make a complete flop. The shots in Hawaii and in the English Chanel are splendid. The movie does not fare well when compared to some others for war story value, I admit; there are plenty of good and better love stories and stories about friendships that beat this movie hands down. So why did I like it and why did hundreds of users score it above average (granted as many did not)? As I stated, it's pretty good eye candy. The expression should not be limited to references of beautiful looking actresses, or actors, depending on who is doing the watching; it certainly applies here.
Many of the actors in this movie have fans and I don't want to diss any of them; so I'll not say all that comes to mind. Besides, I'm a fan of a few of them. I'm a fan of five of them; I enjoyed the movie. It's a movie that is best watched at the cinema with friends who are fans of at least a couple of the actors, eating popcorn with extra butter flavor crap and gulping a gigantic Coke. If you should decide to see it or get an invitation to watch it at a friend's home, make sure they have a big mother*#&%ing TV, otherwise it may not be worth it.
