Title: Perfect followup to Pearl Harbor and Doolittle Raid
Review: Very few movies can capture the historical significance of a wartime battle and dramatize it in an interesting and efficient way. Midway does it all. This would be a perfect movie if not for the contrived love story. It deserved something much more insightful and comprehensive. The battle scenes are top notch, the fair and honorable treatment of the Japanese story, although somewhat stiff and typical, is still refreshing. The vital part that the counter intelligence office played is well represented. This is one movie that I can watch over and over again, as long as my family lets me. This was a most critical and pivotal battle is our nation's fight with Japan and our own struggle with isolationism. The amazing combination of strategy, calculated risk, determination, skill and just dumb luck that allowed the Navy to make this stand is portrayed with honesty. We owe these men our lives. We owe these movie makers our respect.
