I watched it in January, and watched it again today. Especially compared to the Battle of Midway that was screened some time ago, the two movies have their own merits! First of all, the timeline. The 2019 version started with the attack on Pearl Harbor, then the Tokyo air raid on the Coral Sea to Midway Island, and the 1976 version started with the Tokyo air raid as the reason for the Japanese army to accelerate preparations for the battle of Midway Island! Secondly, the plot shaping of the two films are basically true to historical facts and have their own emphasis. The 2019 version is mainly from the perspective of pilots, and 1976 is more comprehensive. However, the bloody transnational love makes people feel superfluous! Thirdly, for the production of the film, the 2019 version chose new actors instead, and the main actors were Alita supporting roles. However, the technological development, the magnificent battle scenes, and the subjective shots of the dive bombing made people breathless; the 1976 version Instead, the star clusters include Henry Fonda and Mifune Toshiro. The main war scenes were absolutely top-notch in the 1970s. Many of them are now studio shots. In addition to editing some historical real pictures, there is no sense of disobedience! There is also a lens for the first angle of view of the dive bombing! Finally, the characters of the 2019 version are fuller, including the mechanic, which is impressive; the 1976 version is a group play, there is no outstanding character image, but the longest fluttering hair Haruko? But for details, 1976 was more detailed than 2019, including the York City aircraft carrier was repaired a few days after the Battle of the Coral Sea and participated in the Battle of Midway Island, while the Japanese followed the American plane and found the York City and suffered another severe damage; and US intelligence. The department determined that AF is a small trick played by Midway Island. The 1976 version has detailed performances, but the 2019 version has it in one sentence; there are also reconnaissance flights by reconnaissance aircraft on both sides before the start of the war. Japanese reconnaissance aircraft took off half an hour late, and there was another reconnaissance. The problem with the machine-transmitting system allowed the United States to take the lead, and the 1976 version performed well! All in all, the two movies have their own advantages. It is recommended to watch them. The visual effects of the 2019 version are excellent, and the historical facts are more complete is the 1976 version!
