Tacking the Doolittle Raid on to the end of the movie was a complete mistake. It's like having a movie about the Vietnam War and ending it with "Desert Storm" just so we Americans can feel good about ourselves! My biggest complaint is about the characters portrayed by Ben Affleck and Josh Harnett. They're supposed to be a couple of Tennessee boys who grow up to be pilots. Well, I have life long friends in Tennessee, and I know several pilots, and those two characters are neither! They're Hollywood pretty-boy posers. They look, act and sound like they could have stepped right off the set of "Beverly Hills 90210" rather than the fields and rolling hills of Tennessee.
I'd rather stay in my lane than lay in my stain!
