I've read some reviews (by both professional reviewers and regular folks) and the general opinion is: Too much trite love story and way too little about the real drama about what happened on Dec. 7, 1941. Too bad. I think this film is sort of a 'Titanic'. Mostly love-story with some tragedy/drama spliced in and a dramatic scene ('Titanic sinks, Pearl Harbor bombed) to cap it off. Hey, I love car-crash movies because they are basically fiction and battle scenes are fine too, but even they can be overdone, and a long, vivid depiction of U.S. ships (and thousands of servicemen) being blown up and destroyed isn't my idea of entertainment. Roger Ebert called it "A two-hour movie squeezed into three hours". Think about that. |
