Maybe drug things out tooooo long BUT....I admired how Cameron paid CLOSE attention to the other details of what happened. There may have been a few things wrong but he at least tried. Pearl Harbor????? American fliers flying in Britain then dog fighting over Pearl and THEN flying the Doolittle Raid???? US / Japanese Dog Fighting between the ships on Battleship Row?? Even with CGI, using a modern shot of a US Carrier fleet as the Japanese??? Doolittle Raiders doing straffing runs???? There were SOOOOO many amazing story lines from Pearl and Doolittle that could have been told WITHOUT absolute BULLS** fabrication. Bay had a HUUUUUUUUUUUGE budget and totally failed by his LAZY effort. I have a Bud whose Dad was on Hickam when the Japs attacked the P-40s. He lived just long enough to be disappointed by that pile of crap and insult.
