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.System Requirements:Running Time: 183 minsFormat: BLU-RAY DISC Genre: DRAMA Rating: PG - 13 UPC: 786936724745 Manufacturer No: 05345000

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

Rating:  - Worst Movie Ever
This ranks among the 5 worst movies I've ever seen. Visually appealing, yes. But the story, the acting, the flow of the movie - just terrible. It was so bad, my wife and I actually contemplated not watching the 2nd disc - even though that's the half that has the attack, which I knew would be cool to watch; and yet - I had no desire to waste more time watching this film. The joke now is that if someone tells us they liked this movie, we know that we cannot rely on any opinion they might give on another ... Read More
Rating:  - Pearl Harbor Blu-ray Review
A home theater sound system makes this movie the one that shows off all that blu-ray can do.You can't beat a great story and great cinematography either.
Rating: - Awesome Graphics!
I know that historically there are many flaws in the movie, but it is a superb piece of hidef entertainment.Ben Affleck is also one of my favorite young actors, which drew me to the movie to begin with, and I've really enjoyed his performances in a number of movies in recent years --- I would go so far as to say he's probably one of the new generation's "Rat Pack" along with Mark Wahlberg, Matthew McConaughey, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, and George Clooney.If I see any of their names in a movie, it's automatic ...
