If it is purely from the blockbuster point of view, it is definitely a very high-quality aircraft and naval battle movie.
But from a purely war and historical point of view, it can only be said that there is too much pessimism in the movie, saying that the United States cannot win against Japan, and that any equipment and technology are inferior to Japan, but is this the truth?
It can be said that the attack on Pearl Harbor to a certain extent hit the United States' control of the sea in the Pacific Ocean, but in the long run, the attack completely involved the United States and its strong industrial and service economy into World War II. It also influenced the course of the entire Second World War.
As a non-military fan, I specifically checked the situation of the aircraft carrier that attacked Pearl Harbor at that time. When the Pearl Harbor incident broke out, the US Pacific Fleet only had the "Enterprise", the "Lexington", and the "Saratoga" three. aircraft carrier, but luckily none of them were in Pearl Harbor at the time. When the Pacific War broke out, the United States had a total of seven aircraft carriers, of which three were in the Pacific, two in the mainland, and two in the Atlantic. Of these seven aircraft carriers, there are three Yorktown-class ("Enterprise", "Yorktown", "Hornet"), two "Lexington" class ("Lexington", "Sa Latoga), a Wasp, a Raider. These aircraft carriers are all large aircraft carriers with a capacity of 20,000 to 30,000 tons and 80 to 90 carrier-based aircraft. The three aircraft carriers of the "Yorktown" class were the mainstay of the U.S. Navy in the early days of the Pacific War, and they are also the names of the three aircraft carriers that appear many times in the film.
After that, until Japan surrendered on August 15, 1945, the number of aircraft carriers that the United States built and launched: 1. 22 Essex-class fleet aircraft carriers; 2. 2 Midway-class fleet aircraft carriers; 3. Independence-class light aircraft carriers 9 aircraft carriers; 4. 1 Saipan-class light aircraft carrier; 5. 45 Borg-class escort aircraft carriers; 6. 18 Commons Ment Beach-class escort aircraft carriers; 7. 50 Casablanca-class escort aircraft carriers; The fleet has 24 aircraft carriers, 10 light aircraft carriers, and 113 escort aircraft carriers, totaling 147.
so...the characteristics of American blockbusters are rendered to highlight, and then put individuals and families together to create the routine of a flesh-and-blood hero, just get used to it. Although history will be buried and tampered with, people with a heart can still find clues as long as they carefully research. It is a pity that now the right to speak is in the hands of others, and the joke has become testable over the years.
The most interesting point is that I watched "Archimedes War" not long ago, Kunimura Hayabusa played Nagano Slim, and then saw him played Nagumo Chuichi in this film.
