Pearl Harbor (2001)
We do not even know where to begin with Pearl Harbor. The story was about one of the most terrible terrorist attacks on America, but it detracted from reality too much. First of all, it felt like the love story was the focus, while the attacks serve as nothing more than a plot device. The movie had an inaccurate plot, but director Michael Bay also used modern ships without bothering to disguise them to look more accurate. Considering who was helming the movie, there were more explosions than necessary. The cast included the likes of Ben Affleck, Alec Baldwin, and Jon Voight, but even they could not save the movie. As a testament to how bad it is, it got the Golden Raspberry for Worst Picture!

Windtalkers (2002)
Even though Windtalkers could have been a great film, it failed to take this opportunity. It was among the first movies to talk about how important Navajo code talkers were during the Second World War. They helped American secrets from falling into the hands of the enemies. Sadly, the movie instead follows Nicholas Cage doing his best to protect a Navajo code talker and is full of inaccuracies. The late film critic Roger Ebert criticized the film because it sidelined the Navajo and used “battlefield clichés” instead of using more believable lines of dialogue.
