Not well cast, and slightly unlikeable in parts, 'Pearl Harbour' is not Michael Bay's best work, and is a mix of unfunniness and lack of respect despite some interesting secondary characters.
Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale and Josh Hartnett all fail to engage with the film's manic and uncontrolled momentum, as the movie just doesn't seem interesting in holding a scene with any real heart or intention. Only Jon Voight is memorable and rises above the script.
Planes and the bombing of stationary ships does not make for particularly interesting action. A lot of the movement and camerawork is riddled with repetitiveness and confusion with quick cuts and overall poor cohesion. It's also too depressing, and not much fun.
