Not great but really not too bad 6.5-7

Rating: 7/10 (11 November 2019)

This movie obviously wasn't the greatest war film ever. It's a very stylish and action driven film. It wants to entertain you, and it will if you let it. A lot of reviews are angry that it's an unnecessary remake, but really the first Midway from the 1970's really isn't that great. Don't act like it's some kind of untouchable masterpiece. I'd go as far as to say I'd rather watch this version because it's at least more fun to watch. Then again, I didn't walk into this movie expecting an amazing deep movie. I came to see a dramatic retelling of a famous battle and to be entertained. And in the end that's what you get. If you're looking for the most accurate depiction of Midway go read about it.
