Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor is a movie that dedicates a rather large amount of time to showing the japanese attack on an entire fleet of battleships. This attack was meant to get the U.S. to join World War 2, which they did. However, the rest of the movie focuses on the lives of the men and women who risk their lives to either fight for or help save our country. It's mainly about three certain people, but other families and friends are tied into it as well. I think this movie relates to people because they are busy worrying about people that they may know fighting over in Iraq, just as the people in the movie are worrying about those they care about who are fighting or in danger.
In Saw, the reason these people were being tortured was because they did not value their lives. This cannot be said of Pearl Harbor, but they still both consist of people who are in danger no matter what they do, and are just fighting for their lives. They do not know what is going to happen to them in either movie, and although most people don't, they are in more drastic situations.
