Query: It was a good thought.

Unfortunately I believe this movie tried to cash in on the success of "Saving Private Ryan". Unfortunately it failed. As in SPR, "Pearl Harbor" used actual events but the story line did not concentrate on the events before and after the attack. Rather it chose a weak love story theme that ruined the film. Yes the attack scene was dramatic with some artistic license taken but it was still good.I think that this tried to be a cross of "From Here to Eternity" and "Tora, Tora, Tora". My advice would be to get these if you want a love story and a war story.Watch "Pearl Harbor" and take it for what it is, a movie, and not a pseudo-historical account.
