Not what you think this will be about.

Looking at the box cover you'll imediately come to the conclusion this is asylums take on "Midway" the the story of the battle of midway in the pacific during WW2. thinking they took their low budget studio and told their version of the story to capitalize on the "midway movie thats due to be in the theaters soon.

insted this is is about a SBD Dauntless crew that is shot down after their successful attack on the japanese warship the akagi and their fight to stay alive in the ocean over the course of several days. we are shown command orders and mission briefings from the u.s. attack group on the enterprise but thats about it. there is no major dog fighting between hellcats and the chiefs vs. zeros. your gonna have to wait to the film "midway" comes out for that or go watch the original from 1970

for the film itself its a period drama. straight up!! no frills! if you looking for an action war flick about midway.. THIS IS NOT IT!! the film making is on a very low budget and it shows. its obvious the actors are on a set someplace doing the best they can with what they got.

Warning: Spoilers
I'll admit when i saw the trailers of this film i thought this would be an original idea with an absolute twist at the end. insted what we get is a thriller flick. i thought it would be a group of friends go to a halloween park and each one gets killed for a reveal at the end it was an elabrate set up by one of the friends in the group to scare his friends half to death. cause they all aren't afraid of anything. alas nope

serial killer goes to a traveling horror carnival and sneaks in his own mask and goes on a killing spree killing select targets useing objects he can find or steal.

while a group of friends gather to go to a halloween event and one of the friends becomes the obsession of a serial killer.

i personally wanted to like the film but after 45 mins i knew what i was watching. i was watching an episode of criminal minds in an expanded format and without the FBI crime unit. it came off as one of those 3 part story arcs that they do where episode 1 is the killer going place to place killing people before the fbi behavior analysis team hits the ground and chases then catches the guy. and it basically ends the same waythat epsiode 1 of that 3 part story arc would end... sadly.
