Tora! Tora! Tora! [Special Edition] [2 Discs] [DVD] [1970]

This war movie is historically accurate and very real to watch. The attacks are loud and real,

This is a good classic World War II movie this movie had two directors in American and a Japanese on a dark community history vs Hollywood this movie was ranked 80% correct. I could be wrong however good movie.

This movie came out in 1970, and it was over budget and delayed due to production difficulties. It is a great film if you prefer war films to be historically accurate, and if you want to see how they made films before computer animation. The director commentary gives a great history into the development of the film. I personally despised the 2001 Pearl Harbor movie. The special edition contains an extra DVD with newsreel clips from WWII about Pearl Harbor and the Doolittle Raid on Tokyo in 1942. There is also a documentary video and movie trailers for The Longest Day, Patton, and Tora, Tora, Tora on the second DVD.

A pearl Harbor movie that tries its best to be historically accurate without favoring either side and is way better than that other movie with Ben Affleck

A different perspective on the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

If you haven't seen "Tora, Tora, Tora !!!" then you must first know that this is a nearly literal treatment of what historically took place. The research was immense; but do not look for a razzle-dazzle action film. Yes, there's plenty of action, here; after all, it was Pearl Harbor. But its all treatment in the context of what took place. With that in mind, I was more than pleasantly surprised about what I purchased. I had seen early incarnations of this film on VHS and was bored. It looked terrible. But in wanting to review this film for its content, so many years later. I was watching something altogether different. The BD picture quality is as perfect as one can get; for a film that's 48 years old. The compositions of the photography opened this film all the way up; as opposed to the cropped square I saw in the VHS format. And the sound was just as impressive. This BD made "Tora, Tora, Tora !!!" ,as I once knew it, created an entirely different ballgame in all its scope.

Dated but still the best war movie. Looks great on bluray!

Liked the Japanese Version of the movie ! Liked the way each country planned kind of knew what to expect !
