From a narrative point of view, the film barely passed. At the beginning, the film showed the preparation process (and the process of the attack) for the Pearl Harbor incident. The plot jumped back and forth between the leader of the Japanese army and the US army. One of the US army officers felt that since the end of the 1930s, Japan was planning something. ——Edwin Leighton (Patrick Wilson) was originally a navy attaché, and later became a US military intelligence officer, leading a team of people to decipher the intercepted Japanese military telegram messages little by little. The film insists on portraying the Japanese from an objective perspective, which sometimes reminds people of the 1970 Hollywood movie " Tora! Tora! Tora! ". "Midway" focuses on the arrogance of the Japanese army in the Pearl Harbor incident: Japan dreaming of an empire can only swallow the bitter fruit of its own destruction

Although the film’s budget is high and the actors are very talented, the film is still very strange and hard to move people's hearts. Screenwriter Wes Tucker wrote very blunt lines, and some of the movements were also very strange, making the potential drama fail to be released. Indeed, Emmerich filmed a lot of air combat scenes. Fighter pilots through the roaring rain of cannonballs originally wanted to create a sense of horror, but such scenes may still be in " Independence Day ", which tells about the earth's resistance. It's more effective in the movie of Starman
." review)
"Midway" is a new movie that shows the decisive battle between the sea and the sky in 1942, but it can only be described as unremarkable. The good parts of this movie are exciting and respectable, but the bad parts are a bit ridiculous. The film continues the path of a batch of World War II movies, but unlike Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk", the film focuses more on scale rather than personal expression. To show the complexity of geography and the story of everyone in less than two and a half hours, "Midway" had to make the dialogue of the characters very straightforward, sacrificing the story for the realistic form

For Roland Emmerich's "Midway"-this is a movie that is so plain to death that it has no characteristics like Wal-Mart, and it recounts the important naval battle in World War II. The best comment the audience can give is that it did not The Japanese roles are very inhumane. In fact, General Yamamoto Fifty-Six and his men are quite three-dimensional compared to the flat American characters like cartoons. The characters on the American side are similar. They speak as if they are all from Brooklyn, and they behave as if they just came out of the set of " Anchors Aweigh ", only the names sounded like real characters. It's shameful, because this movie sometimes shows respect for both sides of the battle. Soldiers participating in the war have the courage to give their lives for their country, and the officers who command operations in the far rear will never have to make such sacrifices. The only good thing about "Midway" is that it reminds the audience that the United States is strong because there are people who are willing to protect with their lives. These people deserve people's respect with better works, not the hodgepodge made by Emmerich
