Summary: GREAT MOVIE
Review: Pearl Harbor is a magnificent film. It has everything you need to spend a great time: action, romance, great performances, good-looking guys and ladies, history and a little bit of fantasy... could you ask for more?. Ben, Josh and Alec are the best actors anyone could possibly have chosen for the roles. Josh Hartnett simply great, a 100% raising star in the Hollywood horizon. Great story told and shown in the best possible way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT MOVIE!
Review: This is a spectacular movie. It has a great story line and the love story in the movie is tear jerking. It has such a surprise ending, and it...it's awesome! Not only does it have the hottest guy in the world (josh hartnett), but it also has great special effects and spectacular acting. This is definitely my favorite movie and I encourage everyone to buy it, and some kleenex too :) thanx

Summary: Absolutely Brilliant Film!
Review: This has got to be absolutely one of the best movies ever made in my own opinion! When I first saw the trailer for the movie, I figured it was just going to be another war movie... but I was way off! Well... of course it is a war movie but it also has a very interesting love story too! For some reason... critics said that the love story totally ruined the movie... I absolutely disagree 100%! That love story kept my eyes glued to the screen! I loved this movie because it made you laugh and cry at the same time and I don't think my eyes went off the screen once! This movie just mesmerizes you the moment you start watching! I don't think this was just another typical war movie because you got to really know the characters on a personal basis and when something happened to them... you really cared and felt like you were losing your own loved one in a way! The actual bombing scene was spectacular! They had awesome visual effects... it really felt like it was happening right before your very eyes! The cast was excellent... I was always a Josh Hartnett fan so that was one of the main reasons I went... and am I glad that I did! Ben Affleck and Kate Beckinsale did spectacular also! After seeing this movie, I got really interested in researching wars... in particular World War II! I think this movie really raised people's awareness of what really happened in American History! I also think that it raised people's patriotism too... and that's especially important with all that is happening ever since September 11th! So please... if you are considering buying the video... please do! I know for a fact that you won't regret it!

Summary: Pearl Harbor
Review: This action/romance film is sure to please all with its stunning performances and special effects. Ben Affleck portrays Rafe, a lovesick soldier fighting for the British in World War II . Kate Beckinsale plays Evelyn, a beautiful nurse who falls in love with Rafe. Danny, played by Josh Harnett, is shy when it comes to girls; however, when he finds his true love that soon changes. These actors wonderfully capture their characters which is really what makes the movie so great and allowed me to identify with them. The special effects are incredible during the scenes when Pearl Harbor is attacked.
Rafe and Danny, life long friends, join the Army Air Corps together. When Rafe falls in love with his nurse Evelyn he volunteers to fight with the British Royal Air Force where he is shot down and thought to be dead. While he is fighting abroad Danny and Evelyn are shipped to Pearl Harbor where they receive the news that Rafe has been killed. Due to this tragedy they become closer and develop a serious relationship. However, once Rafe returns the only thing that can save their friendship is the attack on Pearl Harbor.
This much anticipated film is not only an action film but also a romance. Some consider this film to be a poor display of a war film and that it dishonors those soldiers that died at Pearl Harbor, but what was enjoyable for many is the fact that it wasn't just a war movie. The love story helped more people to identify with the characters and some events that took place. It has a very well written script that had me both laughing and crying.
This movie is definitely worth seeing; and I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind a little love mixed with war.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pearl Harbor
Review: It's a great movie, lots of action, although it could have been about half-hour short. The attack scene is amazing, as well are the scenes of the battle of England, but the romantic stuff is just plain dumb! The end of the movie is ridiculous. But all in all, it's a very good title, and th action scenes make it far better than that other romantic-sacharine movie... what was the title? Oh yes, Titanic!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Had its good points
Review: This movie was good AND bad. Alot of people feel that the love story in it should not have been put in. This was used to show that in the Second World War, people and relationships were thrown into massive chaos. This really did happen. The story here in the movie may be based on reality, or not, but what happened in the movie with the characters and their relationships did really happen. The only part of the love story that i thought could be taken out was the sex scene. They could have left that to the viewer's imagination.

To move on the historical aspect of this movie was wonderful.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The Best movie -october. 19th 01
Review: I don't really see why pearl harbor got some bad reviews . i do have to admit some TINY parts reminded me of Titanic but overall the movie was great. the story with danny (Hartnett) and rafe(Affleck) as the best of friends and then the twist of them both falling in love with the same girl gives it flavor. but to add to the suspense the have the war thrown in it so that the love triangle is put on hold and the thing on peoples minds is how to help others and yet survive at the same time. the director had a great cast with award winning ben affleck hot.. josh hartnett and talented Kate beckinsale. i definately am going to buy this video the day it comes out. it is a sad movie but yet it's a great family movie. i highly recommend it!!!

Summary: September 11, 2001: Another "date that will live in infamy!"
Review: "Pearl Harbor" is a movie of far greater importance after the terrorists attacks of September 11. We are now at war against ideologues committed to destroying our nation. Americans only a few months ago considered "Pearl Harbor" as merely a depiction of a bygone tragic era, but not particularly relevant to our present
concerns. Needless to add, this mindset is no longer embraced by the majority. Jon Voight brilliantly portrays President Franklin D. Roosevelt. You will have a difficult time remaining stoic and tearless when Voight gives tongue to Roosevelt's famous radio speech to the American people after the Japanese treacherous
December 7, 1941 assault on Pearl Harbor. "We are at war," declared the President and "we have been described as weaklings and playboys" unwilling to overcome formidable obstacles, and too cowardly to fight. Does this rhetoric sound familiar? History has been repeated, and once again we are challenged to bravely confront our enemies.

The cast that includes Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale, Cuba Gooding Jr, Josh Harnett, Alec Baldwin, and Jon Voight are fantastic. Michael Bay should be congratulated for directing this work of art. The lengthy battle scene ranks among the best of all time. Every moral person should also be taken aback by the scene
where a wounded seaman curses a Japanese-American physician who comes to his aid. Racial and ethnic bigotry was wrong in 1941, and must be wholeheartedly rejected today when some less than admirable individuals are tempted to blame their fellow Americans of Arab descent for the horror of just a few weeks ago. The
United States courageously and ethically faced its enemies over fifty years ago. We must do so once again.

The very fact that this film's creators relied so extensively on focus groups to guide the making of this film was a serious mistake. Both Liberal and Conservative commentators used this as an excuse to blast "Pearl Harbor" immediately upon its initial release. Many wrongly concluded that these marketing studies might be dismissed as a mere cynical attempt by the producers to increase their profits. I strongly disagree with this assessment, and instead strongly recommend that every citizen view this film at least once. It may very well be your duty to so.

Rating: 5 stars
