Just perfect...

A different way of telling a story

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

This a great documentary featuring Japanese-Americans who served the American military in WWII from different walks of life (Hawaiians who were already serving, mainlanders whose families were in relocation camps while they served, and MIS) who recount both military experiences in general and experiences (both positive and negative) specific to being Japanese-Americans serving after Pearl Harbor. I think what is particularly interesting and touching about this documentary is how they get these guys to open up and talk about something that they haven't talked about before; they have footage of more than one guy recounting things and their closest family members (wives, daughters) saying how they never heard them talk about these things before, and when I showed it to one of my friends she was surprised to see her grandfather featured (and said she had never heard him talk about the things he talked about either). I have lent my DVD to so many friends that now I've lost track of it and need to buy a new one.
