A spoof and not a really good one

Warning: Spoilers
"Pearl Harbor II: Pearlmageddon" is as the title already states an 11-minute spoof from 2001, so this one already had its 15th anniversary last year. This includes elements from two big blockbuster movies that may not be as good as they are famous by today's standards. So they are somewhat easy targets for the comedy approach by Robert Moniot and his cast here. Still, these films were at least original and maybe at least visually amazing. This one here is none of the above and it is also not really funny. to me it looks like a bit of a desperate attempt to cash in on the success of these two blockbusters. And sadly, it was a slightly successful one too. But it shows that for most of the people working on this one here, it is also the most known work a lot of time later, so this is not exactly something positive in favor of the involved's talent. I myself cannot really praise this one for any reason. One or two moments that are mildly funny and credits that last basically one third of the film simply won't cut the cake. 4 stars is very much on the generous side here I guess. Watch something else instead.
