Apparenlt some things were ture. The boys at Pearl Harbour (Affleck and Hartnett) were real and they did shoot down 7 Japs. Cuba Gooding Jr.'s character was really Doris Miller a Cook on the Arizona or Oklahoma but, he didn't shoot down the plane he just stayed at his Captain's side.

Thought it took a lot of guts what they done to try and take off to take on 300 odd Jap fighter planes.

Intresting how the Japs didn't send the second wave in after the first lot did the damage.

Like he said...we have only woken up the sleeping giant.

i didnt like it too much. saving private ryan did so much more for DDay than pearl harbor did for pearl harbor. PH (to me) was just a love story set during WWII. when affleck and hartnett jumped in their planes and shot down 7 japs, did the japs suddenly get scared of those two guys and back out immediately??? when affleck and hartnett shot down that last guy everything was over. i thought that was dumb. everything after pearl harbor was dumb. speilberg didnt call SPR D-Day. i also dont like how the directors and producers just wanted to make money. they did this by blurring the hospital to recieve a PG 13 rating. SPR wanted reality and that movie gave me so much respect for the men and women who fight to keep our independence. to sum up..i thought pearl harbor was just another movie
