No matter how hard the four leading actors perform, they can't hide the mental retardation of the plot. The biggest mistake in historical research is that Cusack, played by the US Navy Intelligence Officer, secretly observed the Japanese station in November 1941. In the anchorage of the Shanghai Navy, Yamato actually appeared in the close-up of the battleship in the wind and rain. You must know that Yamato only served in Japan on December 16, 1941. Should you go to Shanghai for sea trials first? . . . . American directors are not so strict.
