After watching the movie, it's really cool, all the elements that should be there, it is very in line with history, and the threshold for watching the movie is extremely low, the director has explained all the historical background in every detail, and he can make a documentary without any time limit.
Tell me about your feelings. What was the situation in the Pacific Ocean in 1941-1942? The combined fleet attacked Alaska in the north and the Solomon Islands in the south. The entire western Pacific Ocean was deterred by the Japanese army, and it was about to land in Australia. The submarines of the Japanese army had already arrived off the coast of California. There are more and more advanced aircraft, more war experience, and it is reflected in the movie). It was the Battle of Midway that caused the combined fleet to lose 4 important main aircraft carriers. In addition, the powerful war machine of the United States began to operate. Even if the Japanese army still had strength, it could only be limited to passive defense. Yamamoto's strategy of grabbing time was a complete failure. , his worst fears have come true.
Of course, no war can be achieved in one battle. The entire Pacific War is like a tug-of-war between Japan and the United States. If you pull a little bit, I will try my best to pull back more. Victory and defeat are won through cruel, bloody, and long-term struggles. of. From this point of view, the significance of the Battle of High Way cannot be infinitely drawn. If the two sides were deadlocked in dozens of large and small naval battles such as Solomon and Guadalcanal, and if the luck of Awata and Ozawa in the Leyte Gulf were better, the situation after the war might be completely different. So looking back, the U.S. imperialists were very difficult at the time, and Nimitz managed to gather less than half of the Japanese fleet by patching things together.
Of course, there is also a certain element of luck, such as the most brilliant "Five Minutes of Destiny" in the whole film - Spruance forced the TBD team to launch a tragic total-annihilation suicide attack, the latter is also really desperate... teammates also There was no time to wipe the tears, how could the SBD team just hit the horse and kill it so coincidentally, and it was as unstoppable as a magic weapon to turn the tide in one fell swoop. Therefore, it is said that there is a destiny in the dark, and the historical trend is mighty; if you follow it, you will prosper; if you go against it, you will die. In a more profound sense, the predicament faced by Japan back then has certain similarities with the current situation. How to avoid repeating the same mistakes undoubtedly requires greater wisdom.
