P e a r l h a r b o r - Pearl Harbor Reviews

Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor, was 2001's Titanic, although Titanic had terriffic special effect, actiong and a very good story line, but Bay's Pearl Harbor was a true flop. The story starts out with Danny & Rafe, played by Ben Affleck, and Josh Hartnett, the both go to war, and meet a nurse that they both fall in love with played by Kate Beckinsale. In the first 90 min. of the filmm we get into the love triangle, and I gotta tell, it is the worst love triangle you will see in a movie, and we get to know about war startagies. Then come the best part of the film, when Japan attcaks Pearl Harbor. All the scenes where the planes were bombing the ships, and all the wounded men and the nurses trying to help the injured, were all fantastic, although all the attcak scenes were really cheesey, where in one part, where thhe bomb falls above the sky, and lands right in the Arizona and lands on the magazines, and explodes. Just after the plane sequence, Rafe and Danny show up and starts to play "CHICKEN!?!?!?" Oh my GOD!!! Come on would you really play chicken during war. So later on Danny and Rafe destroy 6 or 7 planes, and the both decide to go to Jimmy Doolittle's Raid. But, before they do Evlyen, tells Rafe, that she is pregnet with Danny's baby. So they go to Doolittle's Raid and lean how to fly big plane, and go and bomb Japan, except, that they took off to early, and have no oil, and the planes were shot by flak, so they end up in China and crash, were Japan were invading, and so Danny and Rafe fight down Japan, but Danny saves Rafe by getting shot, and eventually Danny dies, and Evlyen is heartbroken. So Rafe married Evlyen, and raised Danny's son. The acting was really horrible, and, I mean who in the world hires Ben Affleck in a war movie!?!? Michael Bay would. Josh Hartnett looked like a Calvin Kline modeler, who plays solider dress up!!! Michael is such a perfect director for crappy films, like Armageddon, The Rock, and so on, Bay is America's crappiest director of all time. Yes the special effects were awesome, so are some of the attack scenes, but that is not the point!!! Even the Director's Cut wasn't even that good, the only thing they show is thhe Director's Cut, was more gore!!! Pearl Harbor could have been a great war movie epic, but noooo, Michael Bay had to direct the film with the wrong cast!!!
