Description
Pearl Harbor 60th Anniversary Commemorative Edition - English/French DVD- History comes alive in the unforgettable epic motion picture PEARL HARBOR, the spectacular blockbuster brought to the screen by Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay. Astounding visual and audio effects put you at the center of the event that changed the world -- that early Sunday morning in paradise when warplanes screamed across the peaceful skies of Pearl Harbor and jolted America into World War II. This real-life tale of catastrophic defeat, heroic victory, and personal courage focuses on the war's devastating impact on two daring young pilots, Ben Affleck (ARMAGEDDON) and Josh Hartnet (BLACK HAWK DOWN), and a beautiful, dedicated nurse, Kate Beckinsale (SERENDIPITY). PEARL HARBOR is extraordinary moviemaking -- a breathtaking reenactment of the "date which will live in infamy" and a heartfelt tribute to the men and women who lived it. The Rock - English/French DVD- Hollywood superstar Sean Connery (THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER) joins Academy Award(R)-winner Nicolas Cage (1995 Best Actor -- LEAVING LAS VEGAS) in the action-packed thriller of the year, THE ROCK! All of San Francisco is taken hostage when a vengeful general (Ed Harris -- APOLLO 13) seizes control of Alcatraz Island, threatening to launch missiles loaded with deadly poison gas! With time running out, only a young FBI chemical weapons expert (Cage) and a notorious federal prisoner (Connery) have the skills to penetrate the island fortress and defuse the lethal situation! Edge-of-your-seat suspense and unstoppable action explode off the screen in this must-see motion picture event!

One good movie, one bad movie June 16, 2002
0 out of 5 found this review helpful
When I bought this two-pack, I hadn't seen Pearl Harbor, but my friends said it was good so I figured it was worth the price. I was wrong. Pearl Harbor is an awful movie; bad acting, bad directing, bad writing, bad action sequences, everything about it was just bad. With The Rock, it's the exact opposite; good acting, good directing, good writing, good action sequences, everything about it was good. I have no complaints about The Rock. It's a fabulous movie. Pearl Harbor: *1/2 The Rock: ***1/2
