it is yet another Michael bay gemstone, the film was very good at showing what happened and for a fact the director and producer added more of what we all could have learned in the history lesson this is the second best movie of 2001 it was very decent and well made even though it had corny and cheesy bad dialogue as well as a few inaccuracies and a not so good performance from ben affleck. but hey the supporting actors were great it had a great cast. and kate beckinsale was good in portraying one of the nurses who helped the poor, even though she was part of that poorly written love triangle which is probably the only thing that makes the movie not completely a great movie. and cuba gooding also was good at portraying one of the united states navy officers. as well as Alec baldwins performance who played doolitle correctly , and Jon Voight acting as the president roosevelt who very well done portrayed the character. the action scenes were well shot and that attack scene was spectacular , the special effects were fantastic, and the wonderful score by one of the best composers was just awsometacular. very well done, this movie is nevertheles one of the best and most popular films of 2001. great job again Michael bay. you are a great movie director.
