Director Michael Bay is set to debut his latest film, the fact-based military thriller 13 HOURS: THE SECRET SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI this Friday, but back in 2001 he put out another military thriller that mixed a little more fiction with a fact-based event. Yes, PEARL HARBOR aka WWII TITANIC, created a goofy love triangle with Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale, and Josh Hartnett amidst the infamous attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Although he managed to give us plenty of spectacle there was a healthy amount of silly and contrived sequences stuffed into this one, so we thought we'd save you the time of a rewatch and give you the bare bones version in another edition of our satirical series. It's all in good fun and, hey, you might even learn a few things or, at the very least, get a good laugh or two.

Enjoy!

Michael Bay's next, 13 HOURS: THE SECRET SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI opens this Friday.
