Just another patriot movie

Rating: 4/10 (5 July 2001)

I had high expectations on this movie when i saw the trailer, but as a matter a fact, after 3 frustrating hours in the cinema, i was disapointed. And i have reasons! First of all i do not think that love and war go together, and even if they should do i think that a triangle love story is getting a little to far. And why could not the movie just end after the Pearl Harbor attack? why did i have to see the doolittle attack? i mean...comon..the name of the movie is Pearl Harbor not "the Dolittle attack". One more thing thats bothering me is the American patriot theme which is always seen in movies now days (Patriot, airforce one, U-571 and a whole bunch of war movies) cant they just give me a break? i live in sweden and i am not interessted in americas patriot messages! Although i liked the war action and the movie had verygood specialeffects so its a 4/10 from me
