“Tora Tora Tora” was great. “Pearl Harbor” was a waste of time and money. Real airplanes doing real flying beats Star Wars computer animations every time.

I never saw "Pearl Harbor," but they did have real airplanes in that movie. The local (Nampa, ID) WWII museum rented theirs out to the filmmakers and used the proceeds to expand and improve the facility.
