This film probably wins the prize for the most realistic war movie Hollywood ever made, if for no other reason than the fact that the Japanese characters actually speak Japanese. Taken as a whole, this appears to be a fairly even-handed portrayal of the events leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor. The cast includes a galaxy of character actors, but the real star of the show has to be the protracted recreation of the attack itself. Though a little light on plot and character development, World War Two buffs should enjoy this one immensely. Mildly amusing
Media criticism. Pop culture snark. And movie reviews. Lots and lots of movie reviews.
