Pearl Harbor - Two Hours That Changed the World Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is a truly well-done presentation of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Made for television, it is viewer friendly, not an academic, scholarly treatment that will lose all but the college-educated. This is not to say that the information is watered down or diluted. Rather, it is simply a well-orchestrated...

December 7th - The Pearl Harbor Story (2001) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This DVD contains two documentaries. The first is John Ford's film about the attack on Pearl Harbor. I had mixed views about this film. I thought the original scenes from the attack were very interesting, and there were some scenes which I've never seen before. However, the scenes which included the...

Pearl Harbor Payback/Appointment in Tokyo Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This GOODTIMES Pacific war documentary quadruple play has some technical flaws. PEARL HARBOR PAYBACK (1945) is poorest of all: an overly dark picture and sound that includes external static and a constant 60 cycle hum (it's most noticeable over even the cheapest headphones). This is accompanied by two...

Pearl Harbor Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)At 3 hours long, this documentary gives a good overview of the buildup to war, the attack, and the aftermath. The footage is "average" but does include a few minutes of original color from Hawaii before the attack and of the attack itself. The narration is competently done and takes the standard views...

Hiroshima / Pearl Harbor (2010) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The version of John Ford's docudrama DECEMBER 7TH offered on this ECHO BRIDGE (aka "Platinum Disc") WWII double feature is a heavily edited one (the original film runs about 80 minutes). Missing sections aren't vital to the early morning sneak attack central to the story.Both that vintage picture and...

National Geographic's Ultimate WWII Collection (2001) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This video does an excellent job of telling the story of the Pearl Harbor Attack by using actual footage as well as testimonials of survivors. Again, National Geographic has solicited the help of Dr. Robert Ballard in hopes of finding a sunken Japanese midget submarine which tried to enter the harbor...

Pearl Harbor - The View From Japan (2001) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This seems to me a worth-while DVD; I don't regret buying it. It is somewhat mis-titled, for it actually briefly covers the entire ill-fated Pacific campaign. It has a strong focus on Admiral Yamamoto himself--his foresight and vision as a military leader, and his reluctance to enter into a fight with...

Pearl Harbor (2001) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Why does Hollywood have to make a three hour movie about a terrible day in US history and turn it into 'As The World Turns'? I could not believe that I sat through this piece of junk. It was 2 1/2 hours of 'General Hospital' and 1/2 hour of reality. It's a shame that Hollywood feels that 99% of the films...

Pearl Harbor: The Real Story (3pc) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This DVD was the best I could have bought. "Pearl Harbor the REAL STORY" tells it like it is. A very accurate account of what happened in Pearl Harbor. The interviews with the veterans are real with real tears. Scott Freund and Tim Csabanyi? These amatures made a top notch documentary Spielberg would...

The Patriot (Special Edition) (2000) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)My review for the original version of "The Patriot" can be found under its respective title. This review is merely for those who may already own the movie and are wondering if it's worth buying a second time around for an additional 10 minutes of footage. For those who have never bought this title, then...

The Final Countdown (Full Screen Edition) (1980) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This film is well written, has an all star cast and has wonderful photography. Filmed well before Top Gun, The Final Countdown has great areial combat/flight scenes and shows the awesome capabilites of the navy's modern nuclear aircraft carriers and the stressful environment that all aboard have to live...

Armageddon (1998) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The Criterion Collection release of Armageddon is a treat. It offers 2 commentary tracks, one featuring the director Michael Bay, actors Bruce Willis and Ben Affleck. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer has comments on several interesting things. Affleck's commentary is sometimes very funny. The other commentary...
