The Japanese sneak attack that plunged the US into WW II is lavishly and fairly accurately, if not enthrallingly, brought to the screen.

Strictly for history buffs only, because it presents the story in the most dry way possible. It's like a History Channel re-enactment with all of the right aircraft carriers and airplanes.

an interesting footnote in cinema history... though it's no less propaganda than the flag wavers from the 1940s

Prior to "Tora!" movies showing the attack were jingoistic propaganda; afterwards, the attack was an excuse to indulge in Hollywood's fascination with American self-loathing.

The film looks gorgeous in HD, and remains the best Hollywood treatment of Pearl Harbor.

Tora! Tora! Tora! is one of the deadest, dullest blockbusters ever made.

Expensive but ultimately rather empty.

Both overall director Richard Fleischer and his Japanese counterparts do a dull job, and the monotonously low-key tone of scene after scene almost suggests that each was filmed without a sense of ultimate slotting in the finished form.

It's rare for a feature film to attain the trifecta of entertaining, informing, and educating.
July 28, 2015
Directors Richard Fleischer, Kinji Fukasaku, and Toshio Masuda have infused Tora! Tora! Tora! with an excessively dry and deliberate pace that results in an almost interminable first hour...

As history, it seems a fairly accurate of what happened, although it never much bothers its head about why. As film art, it is nothing less than a $25-million irrelevancy.

The climax, in particular, manages to be more than just a shoot-out, with Fleischer's intelligent direction generating a real feeling of chaos and apocalypse.
