History comes alive in the unforgettable epic motion picture PEARL HARBOR, the spectacular blockbuster brought to the screen by Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay. Astounding visual and audio effects put you at the center of the event that changed the world -- that early Sunday morning in paradise when warplanes screamed across the peaceful skies of Pearl Harbor and jolted America into World War II. This real-life tale of catastrophic defeat, heroic victory, and personal courage focuses on the war's devastating impact on two daring young pilots, Ben Affleck (ARMAGEDDON) and Josh Hartnet (BLACK HAWK DOWN), and a beautiful, dedicated nurse, Kate Beckinsale (SERENDIPITY). PEARL HARBOR is extraordinary moviemaking -- a breathtaking reenactment of the "date which will live in infamy" and a heartfelt tribute to the men and women who lived it.

Summary: Relax People!
Comment: I don't even know why people would even compare this movie to The Titanic. Pearl Harbor Came out in 2001--4 years after The Titanic. It also came out just in time for The 60th Anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I was living on Hickam AFB, Hawaii, right across the street from Pearl Harbor when the DVD was first released and I bought it right away. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I was basically living right where the whole battle took place. Living on the base and watching this film, I immediatley felt the undenying emotion of the whole bombing and thought the love triangle was very realistic. Things that really do happen in everyday life--especially in military life. Also, like somebody already said in one of their reviews--"IT'S A MOVIE, NOT A DOCUMENTARY!"

Summary: awful movie, horrible acting, terrible story line
Comment: This movie is so horrible I can't bring myself up to write a review for it. The acting is awful and fake. The story is untrue and the entire movie is badly done. I think 1 star is appropriate.

Summary: Quite Possibly the Best War Movie I've ever seen
Comment: Good actors good plot great picture. That's Pearl Harbor in a nut shell.
It was about the best war movie I'd ever seen. And I usually don't even like movies about war especially world war 2. But this movie was great it had good actors and actress's in it and really aside from the civilians who die in the Pearl Harbor bombing only one good guy dies. This is much better then allot of the war movies I've seen in the past like "Enemy At The Gates", "Hamburger Hill", "Red Dawn", and "The Longest Day" (quite possibly the most boring war movie ever created). It is much much more then just a bunch of stupid world war 2 battles.

Summary: Why are there so many haters in our world????
Comment: I just don't understand how this movie got so much criticism and thumbs-down remarks. This is by far my favorite movie up-to-date, and it takes a really super movie to get me to say it's my favorite. Alot of people said it was mushy and that the love triangle was unrealistic. Some reviews went as far as to say that the action sequences and the bombing were way too fictional and computerized.....
To begin with, let me just say that the World War II era fascinates me and I have read an enormous amount of literature (all true stories) from that time period. I also had a grandfather who fought during World War II who told me an endless amount of first-hand stories when he was still alive...... I've read and heard the stories, I know the facts.... what Pearl Harbor portrays in both the fight scenes and personal lives of the characters is historically correct. And the love triangle is not unrealistic. Things like that happened and still happen all the time. It is real life. It is reality.
So.... you haters need to stop hatin' and take this movie for what it is-- a heartwarming story of courage, patriotism, and true love that is vanishing more and more in our world of today.
