Mediocre movie with an AMAZING audio track!
BEFORE I BEGIN: If this movie had flat or boring sound, it would be a 1 star movie. This movie is completely saved because of how it sounds!On to my "review"If you like your movies loud, in your face and visually impressive, this is a movie I think you'll love. I'm not a movie reviewer so I'll spare you the bits about the weak acting and horrible line reads, but the audio makes this movie worth the purchase. If for nothing more than demo material for your home theater.If you have an over-the-top theater like I do, you'll love the way this wakes every single speaker up, especially your subwoofers. This movie will chip the paint off your walls if you're not careful, but that's half the fun, right?I think if you're looking for a good movie, look elsewhere. If you're looking for material to show off your home theater, look no further!

This movie is historically accurate. Imperial Japan attacked the US military base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii by using their very powerful fleet of aircraft carriers. This attack was followed by the battle of the coral sea, which foiled Japanese attempts to control the seas around Australia; and the daring and brilliant bombing of Tokyo led by military genius James Doolittle. The Imperial Japanese forces attempted to control the entire Pacific Ocean and were fought every step of the way. The next attempt at seizing a strategic landmass was the Japanese attack at Midway Island, which would have given the Japanese an unsinkable aircraft carrier in the mid-Pacific. U.S. Navy cryptographers (many of whom were actually musicians) intercepted and decrypted enough Japanese radio traffic to reveal Japanese intentions toward Midway, and the United States Navy put together a 3-aircraft carrier force to use as an ambush. The main Japanese carrier fleet attacked Midway, then were attacked in turn by aircraft from the US Navy aircraft carriers. The Imperial Japanese Navy lost its most powerful asset (their best aircraft carriers) in one day. This movie is a tribute to the daring and expertise, as well as the sacrifice, of the American fighting men who turned the tide in the Pacific war.

This is a very good movie, in spite of some rather glaring flaws. Which is a shame, this is likely the last time anyone will commit this big a budget to a WW2 movie.

The Good. I am astonished at just how much shear reverence and respect Roland Emmerich shows for all of the known named actual human beings that took part in this battle. Often to the detriment of his usual "Hollywood'esque" story beats. Pretty much everything done or said by a named character in this movie is in fact 100% historically accurate, and comes from direct records and well researched books. Even the most absurd things such as Bruno Guido climbing into a parked plane to shoot down an attacking Betty Bomber. Aside from a few bits of exposition, such as Layton's opening bit or Best talking about non working torpedo's (which were historical facts) It's all taken from their own words. Even the cheesiest lines are actual things said. "We shall sit and watch the Moon" yep! That's the reported last words to witnesses of the Hiryu's Admiral and Captain. (and it follows in the Japanese Naval Tradition of everybody assembling on deck to receive flowery and poetic speeches before abandoning ship. A policy which ended badly on a number of other Carriers later in the war, when they did things like explode or roll over before the Admiral was done with his speech. taking most of the crew with them.) Layton's off the cuff best guess estimate that was 5 minutes, 5 miles and 5 degrees off is similarly a known historical fact.

The Bad;
You can see the moment the CGI Budget ran out. An awful lot of things are missing. Such as Wildcat's. The American Fighters. That's kind of a major omission. Similarly they re-use some CGI models inappropriately. That they just used the Enterprise/Hornet/Yorktown model for the sinking Lexington is somewhat forgivable. (the actual Lex was 1/3 again the size of the other Carriers). The re-use of B-25's in place of B-17's, B-26's and a number of other planes less so.

While 99% of the casting was amazing. The guy they got to play Raymond Spruance was awful. Pure wood. Yes Spruance was known as a very reserved and serious man. Not someone you would warm up to easily. But he wasn't doped up on anti psychotic meds. He was probably the most brilliant tactitian serving under Nimitz. With an amazing Poker face and a clear understanding of whatever the mission was. He was the polar opposite of his best friend "Bull" Halsey. (perfectly cast here).

For all of this films wonderful treatment of the humans who took part in the battle, it is a little sad to see a few of the major players and participants left out of this movie and the events they portray. Perhaps the most obvious was the lack of mention of Dusty Kleiss. Another very famous Enterprise Dive Bomber pilot. And one of the warmest nicest guys ever. He was the other Dive Bomber pilot who hit 2 Carriers that day, alongside Dick Best. He hit the Kaga square amidships, and he scored a perfect drop on the Hiryu placing his bomb just at the rearward edge of the red circle painted on the forward deck. He served and survived the length of the war. Serving much of it aboard the Enterprise. He talks about his experiences (and validates much of what is seen in this movie) in the old 90's History Channel series Battle 360 about the Enterprise. I believe he was also the last of the Midway pilots to die in recent years.

Perhaps the movies biggest flaw is it grabs too broad a scope, and packs in too much incidental material, to the detriment of the actual battle. From it's Pearl Harbor scenes to the Doolittle Raid stuff that really was not needed for this movie. And finally, for a Movie about Midway it focuses on the wrong US ship. The Enterprise is the best ship to tell the story of the Pacific War. She was the old lady that saw all of it. Participated in almost every Battle. But for a dramatic movie about Midway they should have focused on the Yorktown.

Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2020
The above quote spoken by a key Japanese naval officer of High Command upon hearing of the devastating and successful assault on the American fleet in Pearl Harbor encapsulates in one sentence what unfolds in this film and what is yet to come but still unknown at the time. My father served in the Marines in the Pacific theater between 1944-1946. Even though this took place after Midway, things were still so horrific that he never spoke of it. A film such as Midway, even with any perceived errors, at least reminds us most vividly of what happened during those terrible days of December '41 through May of '42. According to a recent book, our own President when touring Pearl Harbor did not know the significance of the Memorial that currently covers the USS Arizona that was sunk on that fateful December day. "Never forget" is a phrase that should never be forgotten and people quite obviously need reminding.

From Pearl Harbor to Midway, America rose like a phoenix from its own ashes; and in less than four years the Japanese dream of being a world power was reduced to a last ditch stand on the homeland of its multiple island Empire. What began with Pearl Harbor ended with Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Along with the immediate Soviet declaration of war on Japan that followed, the Empire totally capitulated.

For all the knit picking criticism that I have read here which also contained an inexcusable mutilation of the English language, this film contained one of the most realistic depictions of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor I have ever seen. For those who were alive at the time, and I was, the news of what happened was overwhelming. Many people collapsed when they heard it. Furthermore, within a matter of days, Hitler declared war on the United States. From "neutral" isolation to global war in the blink of an eye was what we faced; and even though the British - due to their world Empire - had to fight a two front war, it was the US which came to the rescue, propped up its allies, and brought the full force and resources of its underestimated power to bear down upon Nazi Germany and the Japanese Empire until both were conquered. Ultimately, 11 million troops were serving in our armed forces. And despite the fact that the Soviet Union suffered the most losses while turning back the tide of Germany's surprise attack on its own country, it was the US that was the major contributor to and the participant in the two front war that nearly consumed our entire planet.

To compare two movies dealing with the same subject yet separated by 40+ years is a silly endeavor. The ability to recreate different events with newer special effects immediately creates a false equivalency. It's similar to debates involving who's better when comparing athletes in the same sport from different eras.

This version of Midway attempted to give a broader perspective on the Japanese-American conflict. It's almost impossible to remain neutral in one's judgement. However, one can gain more insight into what took place and why. Look at Japan today without being an empire. Consider the fact that Germany has the strongest economy in Europe despite being an occupied and divided nation for 45 years along with a loss of a good deal of the territory that it possessed prior to WWII. Was war necessary?

It is not a question of "political correctness" to present different viewpoints and reactions to various historical events. It offers a learning experience. The real tragedy is not learning from the errors of the past. The "What Ifs?" of history have a definite place. So does its recreations even though they may be flawed. Are all the films about Caesar, Cleopatra, Alexander the Great, or Napoleon absolutely correct? Yet they keep making them. The wonder of Midway was the way Americans made use of what they had left to work with. What we had to remake to prevail. How breaking a code was more powerful than having sufficient weaponry. Look what the British did with Enigma. They say that "necessity is the mother of invention". This was certainly true for Midway and beyond. And if you're unhappy or displeased with this movie, then read the various books on the subject. Many are available right here on Amazon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Complemento IDEAL para PEARL HARBOR !
Reviewed in Brazil on March 12, 2022
As linhas históricas narradas em MIDWAY e PEARL HARBOR se cruzam em ambos os filmes, com o material de extras se COMPLEMENTANDO entre AMBAS as edições.

Midway possui mais cenas de COMBATE AÉREO e sob ANGULOS de MERGULHOS e RASANTES não explorados na época em PEARL HARBOR.

Não possui o mesmo enlace romântico de PEARL HARBOR, mas compensa nas CENAS de COMBATE.

Alguns pontos além da trama principal são abordados de forma apenas tangencial como o esquadrão comandado por Doolittle e que é apenas referenciado numa breve cena com os bombardeiros ainda alocados num dos porta aviões e apenas o breve comentário de que este esquadrão teria uma missão de bombardear Toquio, sem CENAS deste bombardeio e apenas uma passagem depois do pouso forçado na China.

Em PEARL HARBOR Doolittle é interpretado por Alec Baldwin, e o bombardeio a Tóquio faz parte da trama sendo exibido em detalhes, assim como a tentativa de captura dos atores principais em solo inimigo, com a morte de um deles.

Somando-se os EXTRAS de MIDWAY e PEARL HARBOR se tem uma visão bem AMPLA e COMPLEMENTAR de diferentes angulos das BATALHAS no PACÍFICO.

Em COMUM o que ambos retratam é a Histórica frase do comandante japones ao ser perguntado sobre o que achava das conquistas japonesas até então, quando o mesmo responde que na visão dele não ve motivos para se comemorar, pois a princípio o que parece é TER TÃO SOMENTE ACORDADO UM GIGANTE QUE SE ENCONTRAVA ADORMECIDO !

Enfim se houvesse uma versão em 3D de MIDWAY ou de PEARL HARBOR seria simples espetacular, embora com 3D simulado em alguns players se consiga ao menos um efeito próximo ao que seria uma edição 3D plena de ambos os filmes, a qual infelizmente não foi lançada.
