1) DVD DVD Pearl Harbor (4 Disc Documentary) by Good Times Video. A unrealistic love story combined with a poor historical account. Randal once again screws up history.Modern day liberals paying great American military heroes.¤

2) DVD DVD Pearl Harbor (4 Disc Documentary) by Good Times Video. This is a movie I thought would benefit from being Blu-ray and I was right. Although most of the older titles are a waste of money to have in Blu-ray this movie is not that old and the images were fantastic.¤

3) DVD DVD Pearl Harbor (4 Disc Documentary) by Good Times Video. This is one of my favorite movies I consider this a must have. It has brilliant picture and sound. I am not sure why there are so many complaints about this movie because it looks great to me. It seems like a fair depiction of Pearl Harbor from what I have learned. I did own the DVD and upgraded to Blu-Ray and there is a huge difference.¤

5) DVD DVD Pearl Harbor (4 Disc Documentary) by Good Times Video. All right I know that Pearl Harbor since its release date has been getting nothing but horrible reviews from just about every critic who´d seen it. I personally thought it was an excellent movie. The authenticity of every thing about the film was almost down to a science. Aside from Ben Affleck´s 90´s style haircut everything from clothing to wall posters were all well placed and everything. Now we come to the acting. Every one in the film did a great job portraying their charecters and making them seem real. The only real problem I noticed in the acting was Ben Affleck´s southern accent. I´ve got nothing against Ben Affleck, in fact I think he´s a very good actor it´s just that he´d have done a much better job with his charecter if he´d just not used an accent. And last but not least, the bombing sequence. This was absolutely the best aspect of the film. The second the first bomb falls, you´ll be on the edge of your seat. Not only that but the scenes where the Japanese were planning the attack were awesome. All in all this is a must see of a film.¤

6) DVD DVD Pearl Harbor (4 Disc Documentary) by Good Times Video. To call Pearl Harbor a throwback to old-time war movies is something of an understatement. Director Michael Bay´s epic take on the bombing that brought the United States into World War II hijacks every war movie situation and cliché (some affectionate, some stale) you´ve ever seen and gives them a shiny, glossy spin until the whole movie practically gleams. Planes glisten, water sparkles, trees beckon--and Bay´s re-creation of the bombing itself, a 30-minute sequence that´s tightly choreographed and amazingly photographed, sets the action movie bar up quite a few notches. And in updating the classic war film, Bay and screenwriter Randall Wallace (Braveheart) use that old plot standby, the love triangle--this time, it´s between two pilots (Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett) and a nurse (Kate Beckinsale) who find themselves stationed at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, during what they thought would be a nice, sunny tour of duty. Then, of course, history intervened.
br/> For the first 90 minutes of the movie, Affleck and Beckinsale find a nice, appealing chemistry that plays on his strengths as a movie star and hers as a serious actress--he gives her glamour, she gives him smarts. Their truncated romance--the beginning of which is told in flashback so we can get right to the point where he has to leave her to go to England--works, thanks to their charm. They´re no Kate and Leo from Titanic (a strategy the film strives hard toward), but they´re pretty darn adorable in their own right. Hartnett, as the not entirely unwelcome third wheel, squints bravely but makes only a slight dent in the film. Everyone else in Pearl Harbor--from Cuba Gooding Jr.´s brave navy seaman to Jon Voight´s able impersonation of FDR--is pretty much a glorified walk-on, taking a backseat to the pyrotechnics and action sequences that keep the three-hour film in fairly constant motion. But when that action does take hold, Pearl Harbor is quite a thrilling ride. --Mark Englehart¤
