I just don't understand why Pearl Harbor is soo slated?
I know it bombed at the box-office back in 2001 and was given bad reviews, i thought it was an excellent and fun WWII action drama despite the love story.
This movie has been compared by many to " Titanic" and " Saving Private Ryan" including "Star Wars", sure the movie wasn't as excellent as those but i think it works well. It is made by Michael Bay ( who did "Armageddon", " Bad Boys" and " The Rock"). |

But hey, I'm glad to hear somebody enjoyed it. Other than Michael Bay's Mom. *and as a side note, why do you insist on leaving a space between the parenthesis and the word or date inside it ( just wondering)? |
not to mention paul anderson, hes another bum

It should have been named... "Pearl Harbor the Jackie Collins Way"....
|
Pearl Harbor was god awful. It had the awful movie trifecta; the aforementioned Micheal Bay, Ben Affleck, and Cuba Gooding Jr. It's almost like they were following some type of deranged formula to make as bad a movie as possible.
On a positive note they accomplished what they set out to do by making a flaming pile of dog doo. |
:p I'm starting to develop a masochistic need to see this movie...
Maybe I'll save it for penance if I do something really bad. |
The effects were brilliant, but i couldnt watch the movie because i heard so much bad stuff about it and after ohhh 35 mins of it it was boring.
|
The only part of the movie worth seeing, and the only part you *should* see... are the 10min of bombing done on Pearl Harbour. I loved the visual effects. Trust me... That would be the lone reason for seeing this film.
|
The fact that it was a clone of Titanic but with planes should be enough of a reason why people hate this film.
|
One of the best films of the decade. I can't believe none of you like it.
|
T'was a horrible movie, not something I would call a war movie... the only war going on during this movie.. was me trying to click the DVD player off.
|
I don't see how anyone can like it. I was so bored after about an hour that the only reason I stayed in the cinema to watch it was because I'd paid £5.50 to get in.
Also, I can't think of anything more insulting to all those people who died on that day than the film makers calling it a tribute to them. Good special effects and big budgets do not make good movies. If I wanted to see that I'd watch Independance Day and actually enjoy myself. |
I don't have the foaming-at-the-mouth hatred for it that some folks do, but it is definitely boring, predictable, and dumb.

I much prefer Men In Black. |
I don't like Independence Day, Nitzer. If you're taking a survey.
|
For some reason I like it, even though I know I shouldn't.....the guy with the gravel voice is terrible though. The movie is pure camp, and I enjoy it.
|
You would enjoy it, Sedai. Pure unadulterated progandandist tripe that it was....

Propadandist? Is that some sort of scalp malady? And your right, it was a bad movie, as I said. Thanks for enforcing my statement with your verbal wizardry. Oh, and try to get that propadandis taken care of, I bet it is quite painful. |
