Topic: Pearl Harbor (Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett, Kate Beckinsale) Grade: 10/10 Forum: JoBlo

While watching the trailers, I was blown away...they were amazing and I was really looking forward in seeing the actual film itself........boy do I know where all the energy and work went in this film....to make a 2 minute trailer. Pearl Harbor is a MESS!!!!! It is a three hour retread of 1997's Titanic set amongst the backdrop of the story of Pearl Harbor. The screenplay and story was so laughable I was gagging. The dialogue was godawful and the chemistry between Kate/Ben and Kate/Josh was non existent. Kate Beckinsdale, Josh Hartnett and Ben Affleck are normally capable actors who I really like....here they are bombarded by such a putrid screenplay that they really had no choice. The editing was too fast paced and really seemed out of place in this film. The film is not even very accurate....especially the ending. The two things I did actually like were the CGI which were amazing and the beautiful cinematography but those elements were not enough to keep this flick from being a bomb. Pearl Harbor was a total disappointment and a waste of three hours and three minutes of my life. 2/10 or 1/2 a * [This message has been edited by idealdiscountdude (edited 12-07-2001).]
