In the early 1940s, in order to establish the so-called "Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Circle" they dreamed of, the rulers of the Japanese Empire provoked wars everywhere, and it was their important strategic goal to go south to the Pacific. However, the United States has become a major obstacle to their realization of this dream. At the beginning of 1941, the commander of the Japanese Navy's Joint Fleet Commanderやまもといそろく; General Isoroku Yamamotomade a preliminary plan for the South Pacific, with the attack on Pearl Harbor, where the US Navy's main fleet is located.
After a thorough investigation, the Japanese naval assault fleet secretly assembled at the Single Crown Bay on the Islands of the Islands on November 22, and set sail in the early morning of November 26, taking the northern route, with a magnificent wheel-shaped team. Dang, murderous and rushed straight to Pearl Harbor.
After twelve days of sea voyage, the assault team arrived at the scheduled attack point north of Pearl Harbor in the early morning of December 7. At this time, Pearl Harbor was still the same as usual. The US military officers and soldiers were enjoying a pleasant Sunday in a peaceful scene. The actions of the Japanese fleet did not attract the attention of the US military security network at all. At 7:50, the commander-in-chief of the air raid under the pseudonym ふちだみつお Pingwen Romanji Futida Mitsuoissued an attack order on the Japanese flagship deck. As the sender repeatedly tapped a simple attack command on the key, the first torpedo hit the battleship "Oklahoma". From this moment on, Japanese bombers started bombing the large ships in Pearl Harbor in turn, and Pearl Harbor was almost overthrown in a loud explosion. During the entire battle, the Japanese army suffered devastating blows to hundreds of large and small ships of the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet at a small price.
After the attack was completed, the sender pressed the key to continuously shoot and send the secret code "Tora! Tora! Tora!" to the Japanese base camp for the successful sneak attack. The code word reporting the success of the attack spread to the Japanese fleet along with the radio waves. However, at this time やまもといそろく; Isoroku Yamamoto was not happy anyway. He seemed to have realized that although the Pearl Harbor attack was successful tactically, Japan would pay a heavy price for it strategically.

    8. The classic work of panoramic war movies. In fact, the movie makes one thing clear. How the United States was successfully attacked by Japan, all the characters and events revolve around this one center, so although the movie has many characters and complicated threads, but instead There is no sense of tediousness. It is a small narrative under the big picture, basically the same type of theme, Hollywood looks at the tiger tiger tiger, the Soviet Union looks at the liberation.

    The first two hours of the film are absolutely enjoyable for history fans. Although there is too much to talk about, each scene is very short and the dialogue between the characters is also general and simple, but it is completely in line with historical facts. This is satisfying. The military scene is limited by the technological level of the times, and the crew has done the best it can, especially in the AT-6...No, the formation of the 1997 ship attack from the Akagi to Pearl Harbor. It is a pity that the finishing touches were too hasty after the bombing.

Tora! Tora! Tora! quotes

  • General Short: [On the phone, first hearing of the attack] What in the hell is going on... Well, why wasn't the Army notified? And did anyone *think* to inform Washington? Eh, I thought so!

  • Admiral Husband E. Kimmel: [Being notified of the Ward's attack on a Japanese midget submarine] You mean to tell me that a submarine was trying to sneak into the harbor over an hour ago, and it took this long for me to know about it? I don't care if it hasn't been confirmed, I should've been notified when the Ward filed its first report! A submarine that close is a serious matter, it's a very serious matter! Now, get the confirmation, or the reports, to my office. I mean, right now!
