Great cast, but damn, it's a Pearl Harbor plot copycat, no thanks.

    Thats funny, me and my wife's first reaction was 'this is Pearl Harbor... but it still looks good'.

    Wow, no desire to see what whatsoever...

    It's not only the plot from Pearl Harbor, but the worst parts ot it. It doesn't have kate Beckinsale, alot of stuff blowing up, or a decent soundtrack...

    No thanks

    I'll watch anything with Nat Portman in it.

    Looks like it could be all right. Pearl Harbor was bad because the movie was supposed to be about Pearl freakin Harbor, not some stupid love triangle. At least this movie is honest about what it's about....
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    +1, or Kate Beckinsale for that matter.

    And I hated Pearl Harbor.

    I would say it was more a movie set DURING Pearl Harbor than a movie ABOUT Pearl Harbor.

    I watched the trailer.. umm... i can tell right now it won't do very well at the box office.. probably will do slightly better once it makes it to DVD though. I call em like I see's em. ;)


    *could have done with a better title too... Brothers
    seriously.. just Brothers bites it hard.

    I'll go out on a limb here.. i say that Toby Mcguire will be nominated for an award for this performance.. but sadly won't win.
