Michael Bay was praised for Pearl Harbor's clever fusion of romantic comedy and war movie. Bay ignored the horrors of war, which would have detracted from the main events of 1941: the romance between two yokels and a slutty nurse. Other war films such as Saving Private Ryan and Black Hawk Down have been criticized for their disregard for the important role that sex plays in combat.
