Terrible footage was used in this documentary. In some cases they showed footage featuring American dauntless dive bomber when they were describing the Japanese bombers attacking Pearl Harbor. In other cases they were using footage from other battles that had nothing to do with Pearl Harbor. What was even worse was there using footage that look like models from an old Godzilla movie. Very disappointing. I realize there is limited footage but don't use fake stuff or inaccurate footage. I have seen better documentaries about Pearl Harbor. This seems to have been made on a low budget and many other scenes describe was using canned or previously used film footage. In some cases it was shown over and over again in the same chapter.

Some of the footage of the Japanese planes are actually American planes. Specifically a formation of "Japanese planes" are actually doctored footage of American Douglas SBD Dauntless dive bombers. They clearly made them look like Japanese planes with the red circle insignia. Very disappointed. The historical value of this documentary is completely discredited by using this false information.
