Great movie enjoyed it
Pleased with this purchase
I think I have had my fill of CGI special effects. This movie shrieked CGI, from the explosions to the aircraft. One thing that the CGI people haven't nailed yet is how aircraft move in the air. I also don't want to see any more close-ups of individual bombs falling. Who gets to see that in reality-
Why they scarcely mentioned the carrier USS Yorktown I don't know. There was a brief look at the badly damaged ship after an attack, then a brief view of it in drydock, then a brief view of it arriving near Midway, then a quick ‘the Yorktown's been hit’.
I found the movie disjointed, as though they cut too much out of it and it should have been at least 15 minutes longer. It was a good attempt, supposedly more accurate, but overall I feel the 1976 version a better watch. Maybe there will be a director's cut sometime.
Midway
Based on real events.
MIDWAY centers on the Battle of Midway, a clash between the American fleet and the Imperial Japanese Navy which marked a pivotal turning point in the Pacific Theater during WWII. The film, based on the real-life events of this heroic feat, tells the story of the leaders and soldiers who used their instincts, fortitude and bravery to overcome the odds.
