Pearl Harbor in Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor was pretty good.
Gotta love how saying "Michael Bay" automatically gets you downvoted in this echo chamber. That battle is really well done. The tracking shot of the bomb being dropped into the ammunition magazine of the Arizona couldn't have been done better. The reactions of everyone on the island as they see hundreds of Japanese planes flying overhead is well done too.
Not a good movie, but a very good scene.

All offset to the horrible air combat scenes. The way they were jerking the flight sticks around on those P-40's would have led to a crash in no time. As well Welch jumped and shot down Kate Torpedo bombers and was not in low level dogfights with Zero fighters. Even at the end of the war the US policy was NEVER dogfight a Zero on the deck. 2nd highest scoring US Ace, McGuire was killed trying to dogfight a Zero on the deck. So Pearl can stay in the pure Jank range for me.
