Original Title: Midway

Genge: Action,Drama,History,War

The summer of 1942 brought Naval stalemate to the Pacific as the American and Japanese fleets stood at even numbers each waiting for the other to begin a renewed offensive. "Midway" tells the story of this historic June battle where a Japanese carrier force, in an attempt to occupy Midway island and lure the American fleet to destruction, was meet valiently by US forces operating off of three aircraft carriers and numerous escort ships. It was the first battle in which naval air power was extensivly used, and at its conclusion the Japanese Carrier force had been completly destroyed which lead the way for the US 1943 and 44 offensives which would eventually bring the Pacific War to a close.
The 1942 battles of the Coral Sea and Midway island are retold through the points of view of both sides. When an audacious US air raid reaches Japan itself, Combined Fleet commander Isoroku Yamamoto orders seaborne invasions of Port Moresby in the southwestern Pacific and of Midway Island near Hawaii, invasions that Yamamoto hopes will smoke out the US Pacific Fleet for destruction before the full might of US war production can kick in. The Japanese are supremely confident of victory over the vastly outnumbered US fleet, but they are unaware that US Navy intelligence has cracked the Imperial Navy's codes, allowing the US to deploy aircraft carriers to maximum counteroffensive effect.
My main problem with the production had to do with some of the dialog, which sounded like it was aimed at a junior-high-school audience. The premise by which this movie was produced was obvious to me when I saw it as a high-schooler in 1976: get the main facts right and let the special effects really sell the story. In that respect it was like Star Wars without the light sabers and the blasters. (You obviously had to stick with the weapons systems available on Earth in 1942.) There were bits and pieces of the story left out due to time constraints, like the Japanese dive-bomber attack on 'Yorktown' getting chewed to pieces by F4F wildcats. Time constraints also forced the leaving out for proper explanations of strategic decisions like Nimitz's decision to keep his remaining carriers in the vicinity of Midway after 'Yorktown' is damaged. There was more to it than just 'wanting the fourth carrier'. I don't have too much to say about the sub-plot involving Ensign Garth and his Japanese-American girlfriend that others haven't already said. Probably the most historically-correct aspect of the movie was the differences in the effectiveness of American and Japanese intelligence. All Japanese errors stemmed from their poor intelligence regarding the location of our carriers, and most of what went right for us stemmed from us knowing where there's were.

The fact that I usually watch it whenever its on says enough for my opinion of its watchability. The battle of Midway is one of the most famous naval battles in history.At Midway in June 1942 the giant American and Japanese navy's were pitched against each other in the pacific theatre of world war II. this battle, like Stalingrad, was an important turning point in power during the second world war and a decisive victory for the Americans.

During the 1970's Hollywood studios were making second world war films by the dozen. These films were attracting big audiences in the US,and other countries allied to the USA! It was now possible,due to Technicolour,special effects and an endless supply of US air,army and naval equipment decommissioned gracing studio companies. These war films were big budget,examples Tora,Tora,Tora. Patton.A bridge too Far. The longest day. .All focusing on the American victories and the great Uncle Sam. Into this arena of victories for the Americans, showing the world through cinema its past glories(remember Viatnam was still dragging on!!)It wouldn't by long before a studio financed a Hollywood's version of the battle of Midway. Unfortunately this wasn't one of the better ones.

"Battle Of Midway" for the first hour was an entertaining step-by-step account of the strategics of battle from both the Japanese and American view. The picture was both factual and interesting at this point of how and why the battle was to take place. When the battle set pieces eventually appeared on screen they were old documentary shots and even scene from other war films!! This spoiled the film,which had so far been good. The epic movie had become like a 1940's news reel mixed in with a Hollywood picture. Also so many scenes of old footage was used that the film became confusing. Midway in the last hour was just shots, some unnecessary, of American, then Japanese plans attacking Battleships and Carriers. All were clearly shots of old footage pasted into the main plot of Midway. This is what let the film down in a big way.

"Midway" contained a all-star cast. Charlton Heston played Captain Garth. This was one of Heston lesser performances, he just mopped and whinged about his son marrying a Japanese girl through out the movie. On the other hand, Henry Fonda played the role of Admiral Nimitz with good effect and also the same can be said for Glenn Ford in the role of Admiral Spruance. Both actors plus Cliff Robertson has Commander Jessop made the movie entertaining.

Another disappointment was the Japanese talking in English instead of their own native language of Japan,this is one of my pet hates in movies!!!It takes away the realism of the drama. On a plus side, the movie used authentic locations in the Pacific,the camera work was,in most parts,good. However the two important factors that spoil "Midway" are for one the use,and over use, of documentary,news footage and Naval footage of the actual battle of Midway, there were little evidence of battle scenes filmed on production of this movie. Secondly the Japanese talking in English. If these irritations had been removed, for example filmed their OWN battles scenes them Midway mould have become a better movie. Yes i'am taking into account that this film was made in the days when special effects were of lesser quality and blue screen was still relatively new. But using old footage from the 1940's was a bad idea.
The hit Universal movie, Midway, opened in Chicago on Friday, June 18, 1976, in the Loop at the United Artists theatre, and four other area cinemas. An ad read: "In Sensurround--the sights, sounds and actual sensations of combat. So real you can feel it!" In Technicolor and Panavision, Rated PG
