1- Pearl Harbor- This pure hollywood tripe took some of the most valient efforts of WWII and put them in Afleck and Baldwin's hands. My wife is still confused. Of course, she thought until last night, that the doolittle raid happened during Vietnam and was fascinated to find CVs had wood decks.
2-Behind Enemy lines- Some of the worst BullChit ever put out about modern combat. Never saw an ejection seat land pefectly intact, standing straight up. Great place to put a harddrive too. Sure, it'll survive! And Owen Wilson has enough money to get a nose job. Get on it, ya flame! Oh, loved the part where a SAM chases the F/A-18 for what...3 minutes, maneuvers with it, and does not run out of fuel. Might have been a good idea to dump those external tanks earlier there, Stackhouse.
3-Midway- Yamamoto's voice is done by the same guy who does the voice of "Burgermeister Meisterburger" in Santa Clause is Coming to Town. (CLaymation movive). I still can't get past this. Acting is terrible, and the action sequences using the raw footage, with the wrong planes, makes this movie semi-crap. The only redeeming quality is at least it tries to be historically accurate.
4- Top Gun- Too much to list. A great disservice to "Duke", the man who Cruise's character was based on. I especially love the -4G inverted dive with the Mig-28..(Which of course was an F-5E) at a distance of 2 meters. Ummm...would'nt the Vertical Stabilizer of the F-5 be going right through the Tomcat at 2 meters?
5-Memphis Belle- Fair movie, but not based in any fact whatsoever. Hell, even the crews names were wrong. Good entertainment, too much BS to reall enjoy.
I'm MuckMAW, and I'll see you.....at the Porn Shop.
