Tora! Tora! Tora! is the Japanese signal to attack - and the movie meticulously recreates the attack on Pearl Harbor and the events leading up to it. Opening scenes contrast the American and Japanese positions. Japanese imperialists decide to stage the attack. Top U.S. brass ignore it's possibility. Intercepted Japanese messages warn of it - but never reach F.D.R.'s desk. Radar warnings are disregarded. Even the entrapment of a Japanese submarine in Pearl Harbor before the attack goes unreported. Ultimately the Day of Infamy arrives - in the most spectacular, gut-wrenching cavalcade of action-packed footage ever. You'll see moments of unsurpassed spectacle and heroism: U.S. fighters trying to take off and being hit as they taxi; men blasted from the decks of torpedoed ships while trying to rescue buddies; savage aerial dogfights pitting lone American fliers against squadrons of Imperial war planes. It's the most dazzling recreation of America's darkest day - and some of her finest hours.

I highly recommend this for anyone. A great war movie Hollywood kept there stupid story lines out of and told what really happens if you haven't seen it please do one of my favorite movies.

The movie did an amazing job at the time of recreating the events of Pearl harbor as well as they were known at the time. Great acting on all sides and really an amazing watch if you know little about the attacks. Should be a required movie in my opinion.

If you love history this is a good movie to watch. It to a long movie because they are trying to show everything that led up to December 7th, 1941 A Day That Will Live Infamy. You can quickly spot all the opertunitys were the United States could have that if one little thing that would have changed the outcome of the opening shot brought the United States into World War Two. I would love it if Hollywood made a movie about the first few months of the war when all of America saw nothing but doom.
