Review – From Here to Eternity

This is a soap opera version of the events leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor, with strong emphasis on the nobility of stubbornness in the face of adversity. The result is a parade of bullies and their tough-as-nails victims, illicit love affairs doomed from the outset, and final redemption for all characters – in one form or another – once the bombs start to drop. Don’t get me wrong; this isn’t the worst movie I’ve ever seen. Heck, it isn’t even the worst Pearl Harbor movie I’ve ever seen. I just didn’t find it quite as inspiring as some other folks did. Mildly amusing
