Was going to say what others have already stated good all around viewing lots of over stated up close CGI at times too much to fathom at times too close up. Story line at times unclear ,inaccurate or unnecessary .Approach film with knowledge of facts or you my be confused to the details of events glazed over. I will buy DVD when it comes out ,but Mandy Moore's roll was unrelatable to the way men and women interacted at that time frame and the over use of British actors in a film between Japanese navel personnel and American Navel personnel .Not every round fired was a tracer round only every third round was a phosphorus round a little over done unless your playing a video game .Liked seeing Woody H. and Mandy Moore their performances were exemplary and need recognition for parts well played. If the guy who pulled the stalling stunt with out regard for gunners life or the plane would have been reprimanded and probably grounded . Too much artistic license was taken with story line and misrepresentation of certain characters and disconnecting with facts of major players.
