    Read the whole thread from the beginning.

    There is a secret formula out there: Any movie must contain no more than X quantity of good stuff. X is composed of
    A=acting, A2=accuracy, and S=special effects. When you increase one factor, the others must be downgraded.

    Good example: Think of Tora, Tora, Tora , but with the special effects from Pearl Harbor.

    Pearl Harbour: One of the biggest load of shite I've ever seen. Over hyped, over dramatic and the acting...Trying too hard for an Oscar I think. Oh and Ben 'Fukwit' Afleck managed to win the Battle of Britian and the war against the Japanese, or so it seemed. Load of pish!

    U-571: No comment...

    Enemy At The Gate: Had the potential to be an amazing film. But sadly inaccurate. I still like it though.

    Ever heard of that song "Playing with the boys" in Top Gun?
