      Id rather watch earl arbor. Its about a guy named earl who is also a tree.

    • I was in the Navy and my ship visited Pearl Harbor in the 90s. We gave honors to the ship monuments and it was a great honor to be apart of that. It was a memory I really cherish.

      When the bad reviews started coming out almost immediately, I knew I could never watch that movie and hold my personal memories in the same regard.

      so I have never seen it and will walk out of the room if someone insists on watching it around me.

        Take Titanic, where the movie is a romance that happens to be set in a historical event.

        Now imagine that instead of a director who really loves the ocean, it’s a director who really loves blowing shit up. That’s Pearl Harbor, and you would be correct for avoiding it with violence if necessary.

        You’re not missing much. I saw it around the time it came out and will not watch it again. There are just too many things that are a better use of my time, like shampooing the family dog or taking a nap.
