      Midway--Military Fans Deserve To Collect This Film

      Finally, the movie about the Battle of Midway is here! This is the most famous large-scale naval battle in human history, but it has been my favorite battle for more than ten years. It is the only battle after the birth of the aircraft carrier that the two largest naval powers in the world have invested in almost all of the main battle aircraft carriers. In the sea and air battle, in less than a day of offense and...

      Midway--Happening Wars In The Pacific Ocean In History

      The attack on Pearl Harbor, the Doolittle Raid, the Battle of the Coral Sea, and the Battle of Midway are part of a film that fluently recounts several very important key battles in the history of the Pacific War. This film does not have too many emotional scenes, nor does it have too much American-style personal heroism. Not only the American side, the Japanese side, but also the Chinese side, the content of the film is a figurative and abstract expression of the cruelty of war and the...

      The Intriguing Point of Saying "Battle of Midway"

      Say something interesting:

      1. The investment and production cost of this film was about 100 million US dollars, of which Chinese investors accounted for nearly 90 million US dollars, which is why the content about China at that time was added to the film.

      2. In the selection and employment of actors, basically conforms to the image of historical facts and does not impose any politically correct elements such as blacks, Latinos, and Asians, which is valuable.

      3. This kind of...

      "Battle of Midway"

      At the beginning of the film, Yamamoto made his own views on the military strength of Japan and the United States. There are not many dialogue scenes with such long characters, but more long-shot descriptions of the war scenes. There is a lot less description of the characters' hearts. From the perspective of commercial films, it has done enough to enjoy the audience's visual impact. It is a very good visual feast for cinema movies.

      From the perspective of grasping the...

      "Battle of Midway" Apocalypse

      Last year's "Decisive Battle of Midway" completely reproduced the bloody, life-and-death battle of the century sea and air that took place more than 60 years ago.

      The "Battle of Midway" was an important turning point between the United States and Japan in the Pacific battlefield. After this battle, the balance of power between the United States and Japan had undergone tremendous reversal changes. The United States took the initiative in an all-round way, and Japan could only passively...

      The perfect Friday treat. Days of heavy, trivial, tense, and exhaustion were blown away by fighter jets. Having only heard the name of the Battle of Midway without knowing the details makes the viewing process even more exciting. Praise the cinema. May I have a movie theater in my lifetime. The villain of "Alita" and the little male protagonist form a team this time. The names "Enterprise" and Yorktown take you back to Star Trek's Beyond, of course, the name of Star Trek's battleship is taken...

      The characters are basically classic, and Yamamoto Nimitz, especially the pot king, can smile knowingly when he comes on stage. The Benge naval battle movie, which has not been seen for a long time, is of course very unfriendly to passers-by...

    Movie plot

    In 1942, Japan focused its attention on Midway Island six months after attacking Pearl Harbor, hoping to take this opportunity to guide the remaining warships of the US Pacific Fleet to Midway Island and annihilate it in one fell swoop. This is not only a revenge for the US Air Force’s air raid on Tokyo, but also to open the door to the Hawaiian Islands. For this reason, the Japanese Navy invested half of its forces and almost...

    Evaluation action

    From a narrative point of view, the film barely passed. At the beginning, the film showed the preparation process (and the process of the attack) for the Pearl Harbor incident. The plot jumped back and forth between the leader of the Japanese army and the US army. One of the US army officers felt that since the end of the 1930s, Japan was planning something. ——Edwin Leighton (Patrick Wilson) was originally a navy attaché, and later...
