Pearl Habor

Phosphoric · 06-30-2001, 12:11 AM

Man that has got to be the highest budget lowest quality WW-II movie ever, I know some of you prolly seen it already, I just did yesterday and for those of you who haven't seen it yet or waiting for it to appear on DVD don't even goddam think about picking this POS up. Please, do yourself and the humanity a favor, do not see Pearl habor, I repeat, do NOT watch Pearl habor.

It doesn't hurt to watch a movie. Let people see it for themselves. Sure it wasn't the greatest movie in the world, but it is worth every penny to see those beautiful Wings fly, also the special effects were very nice. Anybody who loves planes, learning the "Pearl Harbor" incident, or just Patriotist, go out and watch it or wait for it to come out on tape. It will keep you busy. By the way, the P-51's Look marvelous, and fly like a beauty!

The shortest way home is through Berlin and Tokyo. And when we get to Berlin, I am personally going to shoot that paper hanging son-of-a-bitch Hitler. Just like I'd shoot a snake!"

Yes, it is a horrible move, 30 minutes of combat in a 3 hour movie.

lol it wasn't that bad, at least we had 30 minutes of fight time like Hans "da vemon solider" said

I thought Pearl Harbor was an excellent movie if you only opened your eyes and see that it wasnt all 'blood and guts' like SPR. It was a movie for everyone to watch and to learn about what happened at Pearl Harbor. Like someone said earlier in this thread... the special effects were excellent. If you are a person that just wants 'action' and 'blood and guts' flying... this movie isnt for you.. This movie was intended for everyone.. they wanted everyone one to watch it... it was also to honor the WW2 Vets. Thats why it came out memorial weekend. This is MY OPINION.

Their was no depth whatsoever to the "Love Triangle", and It was just a poor excuse for a bar-fight, and naming the kid after "the dead guy", was really cheesy...But you may all have your own opinions...I'm with Phosphoric on this one... I should have waited for it on tape so I could use the Fast Forward button...

i think it would've been a good movie if they did less romance seens an more action.

Can't you see? It's all about money. They put that love story to appeal to more people. SPR didn't have a love story because it was made to show the reality of war. How it felt to be there. I know it's not accurate in all aspects but that doesn't matter, it still gave you the feeling. Pearl Harbor was not made to show you a feeling, it was made to make money and only money. Woohah!

I never seen it but I never wanted to because I hate Ben Affleck ,Cuba Gooding Junior and Jerry Bruckheimer

riesep · 07-22-2001, 07:21 AM

I actually quite liked the movie. I have to admit it did give shivers up my spine when Cuba gooding Jr. took that machine gun and started shooting at the Japs, oh and please don't correct me and tell me what kind of gun that was. I frankly don't care.

I'm sorry but am I missing something here!!!!
WHAT IS SO GREAT ABOUT JODIE FOSTER!!!!!!!!!!
(IMO)
Have a look at the last thread about Jodie Foster called: "Who thinks Jodie Foster is one of the hottest women on the planet", and look at my list of women.
THEY ARE HOT!!!
So is SALMA HAYEK!
