|
Director Michael Bay (ARMAGEDDON, THE ROCK) uses a inauspicious sentimental triangle to situate the stage recompense the infamous Japanese revilement on Pearl Harbor in this epic rumour of love, diminution, and patriotism. When Evelyn (Kate Beckinsale), a first-rate Armada nurse, meets dashing ace Army fighter pilot Rafe (Ben Affleck), the two fall madly in inamorata, however to be separated abruptly when he is called upon to help fight the war in Europe. Unforeseen circumstances prima donna Evelyn into the arms of Danny (Josh Hartnett), another fighter pilot and Rafe's most excellently acquai... ntance since girlhood.
