PH was riddled with complete fiction. Portraying Doolittle as a foul-mouthed hot-head was complete fiction. His staff and friends were all livid with that portrayal. They said he was cool and calculating a never cursed. Having had a distant cousin on the raid and having read Doolittle's biography, I can tell the screenplay writers had NO idea about the man.
The portrayal of Americans as the great saviors of Britain during the BoB was a HUGE disservice to the brave boys of the RAF who had the help of only about a handful of Americans, who, while giving a small amount of help, were by no means more than a very small few bits of cannon-fodder. Please, Hollywood, you owe every person who saw that pile of dung a refund, and an apology.

Again there are certainly stand out shockers from this list. Definitely up there is both "U-571" and "Pearl Harbor" both truely terrible movies although I can actually just about watch both (Pearl Harbor was on TV the other night and I did watch it for some reason). Certainly it could be any one from the list but still for me despite the cracking cocks ups that are present on this list it has to be "Pearl Harbor". Love triangles broken up by the Japanese and the slight impression the Americans won the Battle of Britain, could it be any worse
I hate Brokeback Mountain...Especially the whole gay cowboy thing.
Okay..Gay sheepmen, what's the difference it still makes me do this...The thing I hate MOST about Broke Back Mountain is the fact that everyone thinks they were gay cowboys- They were Sheep men, NOT cowboys.
Being a former working cowboy from Wyoming I cannot even get into how I feel about this movie with out ruining my whole weekned (and the wife's) with the mood I will be in. Pearl Harbor is almost as bad- and yes- I saw through about the first half hour of Broke Back Mountain (Before the man love started happening) and there was so many flaws in the normal working scenes that I would have gave up on it anyway...
