Too all of you, this is MY OPINION [ if you don't like it.....bah!] |
An actual event, horribly horribly twisted out of context. (They make it seem like they bombed Tokyo right after the Harbour was bombed, but in actual fact there were months in between.)
I'm also sick of seeing the American superhero type of deal, that's probably why I enjoyed Enemy at the Gates a lot...the two main characters were potrayed at an equal level. Which I suppose also refers to the lacking in story aspect.
There are a handful of true bits and too much hollywood mumbo-jumbo. I think a lot of movies suffer from that, they could have been so much better to focus on that little bit more dialogue and less on the advertising.
Word of mouth can kill or boost movies these days, it's a powerful thing having the internet and such. And many movies have a great concept but just don't deliver.
This post is all over the place, sorry, I'm tired.

Not America, American...the characters and stuff. It's difficult to get into as I don't want to spend more of my life arguing about this topic. In short the movie just shows it too one-sided.
It's just too Hollywood. It reminds me of Wolfenstein, sure it was WWII...but it just felt wrong, too "Doom"-esque. Pearl Harbour was similar, sure it's WWII, but it just doesn't feel right. It's like propaganda all over again.

Man, I loved the first one |
all of the pearl harbour/top gun drivel that wants to use lots of US military hardware, needs to be approved by the US military, so it ends up as propaganda.
dunno what excuse the matrix series has though.

| Hey I liked Pearl Harbor |
*tries not to fall about laughing* You mean you actually class that monstrosity as a film?
The history isn't really important to the film, as it's hard to concentrate with the hammy acting, poor dialogue, overblown explosions and cheesy drama ![]()

Damn...look at what i've started ![]()

Yes, we really need a movie dedicated to the Japanese heroes who bombed civillians and soldiers almost totally without resistence.
A few points:
- The Rock kicked your ass.
- 'Dramatic movie' is a redundant statement. Movies are supposed to be dramatic, or you wouldn't watch them.
- The ending of the Matrix Revolutions, I thought, was really well done - EVEN the sunrise.
[addsig]You can have comedic movies as a counter to dramatic movies.
I think The Rock is going to stand as an exception to the rule with Michael Bay movies.
