Given the strong dramatic storyline of "From Here To Eternity" and the technical excellence of "Tora Tora Tora," do we need a remake with fake-looking CGI, torpedo bombs dropped from zeros directly on top of ships, and Hawaiian kids playing baseball at 7 am on a Sunday morning? At least these are the 'facts' I'm getting from watching the theatrical trailer.I guess every new generation needs WWII movies to call their own. Get ready for a remake of "Bridge on the River Kwai." Starring Brendan Fraser and Richard Hatch (from "Survivor").
