Tora! schildert in packender Art und Weise, wie sich der Angriff auf Pearl Harbour anbahnt.
Die Japaner planen, die großen Schlachtschiffe der Amerikaner wie die Enterprise mit einem gezielten Luftangriff zu vernichten.
Der Angriff schlägt im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes ein wie eine Bombe: Die Amerikaner verlieren viele Schiffe, die Schlachtschiffe jedoch, die vor der Küste lagern, bleiben unversehrt.
In the summer of 1941, the United States and Japan seem on the brink of war after constant embargos and failed diplomacy come to no end. "Tora! Tora! Tora!", named after the code words use by the lead Japanese pilot to indicate they had surprised the Americans, covers the days leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor, which plunged America into the Second World War.
