Product: Midway (Collector's Edition) (1976)
Rating: 3.0
Suffers from comparison to TORA TORA TORA
The subplots of this movie are weak. This takes away from a strong cast with a strong effort. Hal Holbrook delivers the best performance of the lot. Historically it doesn't suffer "Pearl Harbor" syndrome but I still felt like it was missing something as a movie. Perhaps it was because it older brother TORA TORA TORA is so much better. Of course it was also less of a success moneywise so perhaps the filmmakers made decisions accordingly. Its worth a watch, but don't expect a clasic.
