Summary: Make war not love
Review: Pear Harbor is a fantastic piece of work...when the plot shifts to the actual attack on the harbor. The first hour and a half of the film is focused on a sappy love triangle involving the three main characters of the movie. It is the same old story we have heard before. Boy meets girl, boy goes away, other boy meets girl, first boy comes back, blah, blah, blah. However, after you get through that, you are totally blown away by the Japanese attack. It is worth paying the 5 bucks and sitting through the love story just to see the last hour and a half of Pearl Harbor. The effects are mind boggeling. I'll leave it at that because I don't want to ruin it for you, but this movie is worth it dispite the love story. Sorry if you like the "romantic" part of the film, but it could have been better.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: This is a great movie!
Review: This movie deserves more than the 5 stars that you can give it here. The first half of the movie is about a great love triangle, and it is much better then Titanic's very unrealistic love story. My grandmother was a nurse in Hawaii when Pearl was bombed by the Japanese. The 4th time I went to see the movie, she came with me. She said that the nurses in the movie were realistically portrayed of the nurses in the 1940's. This is a great movie and it didn't deserve such bad reviews. If you don't go see the movie, at least get the soundtrack because it is one of the best movie soundtracks around.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Waste of Time
Review: When I first heard about this movie, I was excited to hear that there was going be a movie about WWII in epic proportions. As time went on, I found out that there was going to be a love story in this flick. I grew skeptical. Against my better judgement I went to see it.

For a moment I thought I was watching GENERAL HOSPITAL. The movie was a soap opera with the attack of Pearl Harbor thrown in the background. Granted the actions scenes were excellent, but by the time they came along, I didn't care. I grew anxious. When were the three hours going to be over?

There is so much about World War II out there that they could have made an incredible movie. This is a movie not even worthy to watch on video.

The acting was cartoonish, dialogue was worse. Save your money and wait for something better to come along.

I know certain movies are not to be taken seriously and I understand that. In fact I loved CHARLIE'S ANGELS, As goofy as it was. But PEARL HARBOR is not one of those movies. Perhaps James Cameron should have directed it. I sure it would have been a great movie. Oh wait a minute he did, it was called TITANIC.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A real "Gem" of a film
Review: You all know the basic storyline by now, so I'll get to the point!A great tale, not just about the bommbing of Pearl, but a story of friendship, love, and what war can do to peoples lives.How courage is in all of us, and can be brought out by many things. An excellent performance by Ben Afflect, backed up well by JoshHartnett. I think we will be seeing a lot more of Kate Beckinsale in the near future. Some people have said the begining is slow, I do not agree. It is well laid out to show us the characters, and how they evolve, and eventually react in the battle scenes. These are very harrowing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT FILM BAD NAME
Review: I loved this movie. This movie has all the elements of a summer blockbuster. I t has HOT guys,a little comedy, a lot of action, a lot of drama, and of course bad reviews. Naming this movie Pearl Harbor was a big mistake though. If you name a movie Pearl Harbor people are going to think this movie is going to this big war flick when in fact it's about people. It shows how dramatically a war can change people's lives. So all and all it's a great movie with the wrong name.( oh yeah AND REALY HOT GUYS.)(Ben Aflec and Josh Hornen look soooooooo goood in this movie)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: RE: Pearl Harbor
Review: Pearl Harbor is basically a Hollywood movie but it does bring to life one of the greatest tragedies in American history in a way that people can relate to. Sure, we all read about the bombing of Pearl Harbor in history class, but to see it come to life on the big screen and to throw in such a heartwrenching love story with it really hits home. Ben Affleck as Rafe and Josh Harnett as Danny really come off as true "brothers in arms" - they, along with Kate Beckinsale as Evelyn, tell a story that most people (skip the critics opinions, they always bash big Hollywood productions) will be thinking about even after they leave the theater - as it could happen to anyone. The story was somewhat predictable, but it doesn't make it any less poignant. You find yourself rooting for both love stories throughout the movie. The Hawaiian scenery can only make it more romantic. I saw this movie twice within one week and loved it even more the second time. Try it - you will agree. I saw alot of WWII-age men and women in the audience and can only hope the movie does some justice to the actual horrific events that they lived through. I really haven't heard too many bad reviews from movie-goers. Treat it like the summer blockbuster it is and you will enjoy it thoroughly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Intelligent Movie
Review: This is an INTELLIGENT movie starring Ben Affleck,Josh Hertnett,and Kate Beckinsale. These actores and this film deserve ***** (5 stars) because they did alot of romance,comedy,and war actions. This film is 3 hours long so you can see the hard work that they did payed off. [...]So If you like hard work,good acting,romance+love,war fighting,and comedy you HAVE to see this film because if I could I would give them 100 stars.

Rating: 5 stars
