Pearl Harbor Customer Reviews (25 - 27 of 144 Reviews)

a five star attack is bookended by a two star romance that was old hat in 1941 and is just bad now.
michael bey's "pearl harbor" is one of those "what could have been " movies. with a screen play that would have been laughed at in 1941, mr bey has tied his great f/x scenes of the attack, to a love story that is the last word in corny. the number of times logic is given up in favor of the sappy love story just kills this flawed take on america's darkest day(9/11 not withstanding)!! at nearly three and a half hours it goes on forever and really after the attack there isn't much story left to tell. a very big miss fire from mr. bey and company!!!!!!!!!!!

I love it!
Yes of course everyone is totally against this movie but it is actually historically accurate besides the whole love story. I am 16 years old and we are learning about WWII right now and after seeing this movie, I have to say it's pretty good, my history teacher even agrees with me. When they started bombing Pearl Harbor I felt sad and terrified for all those men who had to die. They do a really good job on that part. Even the infiltration of Japan after Pearl Harbor, I can't remember the name of the mission, when they start to lose fuel over the ocean and so forth. I think the whole love story was just leading up to the big bombing on Pearl Harbor and it was good background. With nurses being called to duty and American volunteers helping the RAF (Royal Air Force) in England, it's all pretty much historically accurate.
I think it's a wonderful movie.

Disney lays big one at Pearl
I had nothing to do one night. This was on television.

I am glad I neither purchased this nor went to the theater. I only wasted my time not my money.

The only scene worth watching was the one of the Japanese Plane dropping its bomb on the Arizona. That was superb. The rest bombed.

The scenery was fine. Special effects wonderful.

Cuba Gooding Jr did a fair job acting. Everyone else stank.

The story was plotless and strangling in its own mediocrity.

The love triangle with Ben Afleck and the other two was forgetable. His portrayal as a Yank in the RAF more pathetic than the plot that got him to Pearl Harbor.

Overall there were two big bombs at Pearl Harbor, the one that sank the Arizona and this one.
