    Fortunately, I just rewatched "Tiger Tiger Tiger", and many scenes were moved from that film without moving. You are saving too much money. . . The plot of the intelligence officer's son marrying a Japanese girl shouldn't be used to make up the...

    It's actually quite boring. It's better to listen to a military class. In the end, you don't know who killed who and...

    The Battle of Midway occurred six months after the Pearl Harbor incident. The U.S. military sank four main Japanese ships at the expense of one aircraft carrier, which became a turning point in the Pacific battlefield and even World War II. The film is star-studded and is one of the large-scale war films released in the 1970s. From the perspectives of the United States and Japan, try to show the entire process of the battle as objectively and truthfully as possible. A lot of detail restoration...

    Before watching the new version, I felt that the old version was less cinematic, like a trailer showing a history book. After watching the new version, I felt that the history was so wonderful that the new version didn't even have a performance, so it's not as good as the old version. On Henry Fonda's face, he really saw the shadow of his daughter's...

    The United States won the battle of Midway Island by no means luck. It should be said that the Japanese were lucky to survive so many air strikes until the SBD sent three aircraft carriers to hell. If the Americans are lucky, the Army’s B17, B26, Marine Corps’ Avengers, or torpedo aircraft may cause losses to the mobile...

    There is a relatively complete restoration of this history. As the largest naval battle in the last century, the film focuses on small points and gradually enlarges, and the scenes are realistic. It's just that the way of expression is relatively mediocre, and the second half falls into the cliché, the narrative is absent, and it has become a pseudo-documentary filming method. The Japanese army's password leak was just a strategic missed opportunity and did not directly affect the outcome of...

    The score is low, and even the introduction is complaining about mediocre movies, but I think it's very good-looking. The intelligence warfare and high-level decision-making between the two sides in the first half are the essence of the 70s war films. Not only does it not show procrastination, but it makes people sweat immersively. In the second half, it can be called a magical stroke to circumvent the technical limitations and edit the real historical footage. It is a classic that is not...

    1 is not a co-production, so the level of footage involving Japan plummeted. The casting criteria may be just to see if the yellow man can speak English. Toshiro Mifune is more like a sheep's head hung up by the Americans. 2 A lot of actual combat information, well, Edwood also found a bunch of film from the troops and pasted them over, and it made up a lot of big scenes. 3 This film is still more influenced by the Japanese self-comforting statement that was popular in those days. Although luck...

    ★★★☆ Although there are speculations on the scene, James Cobain, Henry Fonda, and Toshiro Mifune gathered...

    The Yankees are really lucky; the Japanese speak English, and the bullshit love line is greatly reduced, and the others are not comparable to...

    Standard documentary!

    There are indeed a lot of big names, but I can't call them by name, they all look familiar!
    BTV4 was released a few days ago, and they are finally willing to release some new movies.
    I don’t remember whether I read a book or a movie before. My impression of the naval battle on Midway is that Little...

    Unqualified Midway Film

    Compared with the tigers of the same series, it's really too much difference ~ no wonder, after all, Pearl Harbor is the United States lost, and it is reasonable to be evenly matched. The ending of Japan's defeat on Midway Island made the beginning of the movie's battle layout long and boring. It...
