It does try to point fingers, and surely, some of those fingers are correctly pointed, but I really am left wondering about the level of scholarship.
A movie of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

There was one scene in the movie that I think definitely made it worth it for me.
The rest wasn't so bad.

Sure, it all feels a bit contrived, and I have a strong suspicion that if everyone in jail had to kill someone in jail to prove themselves, the prison population would be a lot lower, but this is hardly simplistic fare.

Woody Allen is back in pretty good form as Director and starring as a hack magician.

Rob Lowe has a lot of cachet as a political operative, since West Wing, which he utilizes here.
The stories were pleasant, if a vaguely naive (while pretending to be anything but), so, I can recommend it.

A great movie about the lives, and deaths, of a American bomber group in England.

This should be remade with a "ask me" instead of Orson Welles.
Many tidbits throughout the movie make it a surprising watch.
Most? of the characters seem very real.
The movie is dark.
The plot is definitely not easy.
Welles can't avoid some overt mental gymanstics, an excessive brogue, and there's odd camera work. This will ruin the movie if you are just too awake.
