Review Detail

In his review of Pearl Harbor, Roger Ebert described it as depicting "...a surprise attack on an American love triangle.", not being a fan of Michael Bay I saw no reason to chase it up. For all the many flaws baked into the source this edit is quite watchable, the new cuts are seamless to the extent that having never seen the original I at no time felt like anything was missing.

The only thing that I would further change would be to remove the voiceover and song at the end to give a more sombre ending, the latter in particular feeling (unsurprisingly) like it belongs to a film of a different genre. Otherwise, I do not know how it could be made any better!
