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.

Very accurate, historically. Admiral Yamamoto never said tat line about awaking a giant, but I can guess he thought it. Critics say that it's bad because we know how it ends? That's a BS point. It's also not Japanese propaganda, it's more focused on historical accuracy. Much better then it's newer, worse movie by the name of "Pearl Harbor". Little to no CGI, all practical effects.

Critics say the movie is boring, kind of agree but the price is right and I like the history. What would of happened if the warning signs would of been acted on. Would the war even happen, or without the set back the US may of won the war early,
