I watched this movie based on the "Pearl Harbor" I just watched in the previous step, and it was also changed based on historical events, a key country's destiny. Although the director and actors are different, according to the failure of Pearl Harbor, the US military defeated the attack fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy near Midway Atoll, and sank four Japanese aircraft carriers at the cost of losing only one aircraft carrier "Yorktown". The victory that initially turned the tide of the Pacific War

Let's talk about the director of this film, Emmerich, "Independence Day", "The Day After Tomorrow" and "2012" are all directed by him. I really like his shooting style. This military film can also be described as a blockbuster shock.

The plot first describes the incident of "Pearl Harbor" being attacked. The film's time is not long, but the visual effects are really spectacular. With only 10 minutes of special effects, I feel the anxiety of the naval battle. Because of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Pacific War broke out and the United States joined World War II.

After the Pearl Harbor incident, the male protagonist's friend died in it. In the movie "Battle of Midway", the movie focused a lot on him. The director of the film, Roland Emmerich, revealed that the focus of the movie is It fell on the "Enterprise" aircraft carrier, and the focus of the Enterprise aircraft carrier was on the pilots. The Air Force is really handsome, no matter what kind of uniform they wear. The male protagonist is a bit unruly here, and he dares to fight and act. The interludes of each movie need a protagonist to assist to connect the story into a line.

In the end, it was Ed Skrein's dive bomber squadron commander Dick Best's plane that blew up the enemy's most important command aircraft carrier. He broke the boat, dive bomber, and risked his life to launch a high-angle charge again and again. Everyone here has professional air force skills. Even if they know the plane is about to crash, they will sacrifice together with the enemy.

They just broke in like that, whether they could get out alive or not.

In the long and precious era of peace, remembering that picture, it is almost impossible to forget the war.

Bombing planes, bombing aircraft carriers, bombing airports... The scene of bombing aircraft carriers from the sky in 360 degrees is too unforgettable.

This emotional part is more about family and country feelings and brotherhood. What I sigh is that the pilots' wives in these two male protagonists are nurses, and they are all so beautiful. It is worth mentioning here that the film has more portrayed the Dick Best family in this episode, and his wife and daughter lived in Pearl Harbor.

Every character here, whether it's an enemy player, or a U.S. military commander, is an intelligence officer.

There are not many roles, and the fame is not small, and all of them are very good-looking.

As a true-historical war movie, Battle of Midway is great.

In the end the enemy knew that they were defeated. In the end, I chose to sacrifice myself, and someone needed to pay the price for this war, and I chose death. The war is really too cruel, everyone is fighting for the interests of their own country, but they are just on the opposite side, exchanging war for the interests of the country.

The movie "Battle of Midway" does not have any main theme burden. The US military is not an omnipotent hero, and the enemy army has not been demonized.

The sea remembers immortality and faces history squarely in order to have a better future.

We who live in peaceful times should look back, understand, remember, and respect their courage.

The easter egg at the end of the film also has the participation of Chinese people, "Thanks to the Chinese people for making great sacrifices to help the soldiers in distress"

end with this

As the film says, "No one wants war, but only the past."
