Pearl Harbor (Vista Series Director's Cut)

Rating:
Summary: Excellent history lesson with a little romance!
Review: If you can get beyond the romance, this movie offers a lesson in history and how the United States could have saved themselves from a lot of heartache. If the Naval Officers had only listened and gone with "gut instinct." The bombing scene was fantastic and so powerful. I never knew Ben Affleck was soooo good looking. It's worth the 3 hours and 20 minutes.

Summary: Just saw it! Great!
Review: The Theme of the movie was more of a Romance than a War Movie. The historical data was very accurate. I got chills during the bombing scene, to realize the horror that those soilders faced that day. I am not usually favorable of political corectness, however this movie did a great job in not trying to offend the Japanese, yet still giving an accurate account of what happend that Sunday morning. We were astounded to find that three hours had passed by the end of the movie.

Summary: This movie was a let down.
Review: Anticipating the special effects and action that was seen by all in Pearl Harbor's trailer, I was dissapointed as it took almost 90 minutes for anything to get going. For ninety minutes 4 friends and I had to sit through a boring, and unnecessary, love story that belongs on Jerry Springer. Then came 45 minutes of the sweetest action and special effects my eyes have seen, followed by an overall cheesy ending that should have been cut out. If you are to see this movie, go an hour and a half late.

Summary: The 'Greatest Generation' makes us feel good again.
Review: After watching Pearl Harbor, I cried with pride. This film has Academy Awards written all over it. Super high-tech photography puts you in the middle of the action. The sub plot involving a love triangle among best friends defines honor and chivalry, American style. If you're looking for a "feel good" picture, this may be it.

Summary: A Great Movie for Anyone!!!
Review: I saw Pearl Habor last night and it was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Even though it was 3 hours long, it went by so fast. I fell in love with all the characters!!! This was a great movie and I would suggest everyone to see it. It is a wonderful movie and we can all learn a lot from it. Even if you think you know all what happened in Pearl Harbor, this movie shows you what it was like for all those people in reality. Go and see it!!!

Summary: Don't miss this movie!
Review: What a fantastic film! The action scenes were amazing, you felt like you were there. It had just the right amount of emotion and realism. The portrayl of the nurses and the men on the ships really made you appreciate what it must have been like for them. I enjoyed seeing this on the big screen but will definitely want to buy the DVD for home viewing. It's a movie I will want to view more than once.

Summary: Wow...
Review: OH MY GOSH!!! This was such a well made film. I love the ending...I almost cried! If you haven't seen Pearl Harbor yet, YOU MUST SEE IT!!!! It is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. A little gory I must admit, but the love triangle between Rafe, Evelyn, and Danny is great (but it is a bit like an episode of "Dawson's Creek"). It is a great movie and you have to go to see it ASAP!!!

Summary: A Winner for the Oscars
Review: I've just seen the new hit blockbuster movie "Pearl Harbor" and this movie is a have-to-see. Most people are discouraged with the romance (which does have one love scene, but it is not graphic or that long) between the three characters, but the romance added to the actual affect of the devestating event that took place on December 7, 1941. The sound effects, action scenes, and photography really caught how Pearl Harbor actually was. Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett, and Kate Beckinsale all did a fanastic job in bringing the drama and heart-wrenching event to the viewers. Director Michael Bay did a wonderful job as well capturing the dramatic scenes on the screen. "Pearl Harbor" is a GREAT movie for people of all ages. Do not wait for the movie to come out on VHS or DVD; go see it NOW!! The big screen just adds to the action and effects of the movie. In my opinion, this movie should be a winner at the Oscars!!

Summary: misguided and miscast
Review: So often today are movies put together around a love story and fast paced action sequencs. this movie my get my award for the most misguided piece of crap ever thrown together to appease a mass audience. Where Saving Private Ryan had its realize and showed the dedication of soldiers, this has ben affleck trying to prove he's a real actor. No matter what anyone else tells you, Affleck will never be a good actor unless he's playing a tuff guy from Boston with his buddy Matt Damon. Beckinsale's performence is equally out of place as she tries to fight past her english accent and become a big time hollywood actress. Why exactly Cuba Gooding Jr. was even in this movie still boggles my mind. The role he plays should have been for a up and coming african american actor, not an established one who wants to boost his career. Over all this movie besides its faulty acting, is an insult to anyone who took part in the attack on Pearl Harbor. I would be affended to think that what happened that day wasn't interesting enough and needed to be beefed up with a cheesey romance novel quality love story. So boo to the people that made this movie and wasted so much money that could have been spent on something truly worhwhile. Just go rent Wonderboys instead.
