Midway (1976)
8/10
film review
18 March 2009
This is another great war movie that shows you a different perspective of battle, which is the view from the officers. In this view we see different high levels go at it about what course of action they should take to best protect their ships, and to destroy Japan. This means you loose a lot of action and battle scenes, but it is replaced with a great plot and the view of what goes on before and during the battle in order to make sure you get the advantage. The acting is also very good giving you a very believable sense of what it would be like to be a captain, or a commanding officer for Japan. Overall this is a good movie and it is a movie that anyone who likes war movie has to see. It is also one of the more well known movies so its worth seeing just so you can talk about it and have a good conversation with other war movie junkies. So i would say this weekend go out and rent Midway, its a great movie and is worth watching.
