Midway - DVD, BLURAY, Digital

A fine movie at a reasonable price.

Great movie, action packed story line

Came fast and in good condition

It covers a fair amount of history but does not drag on. If you or interested in history, you will like it.

Great movie

Item came on time and nicely packaged.

I wanted this to be a good movie, but it was great! The bluray disc I received produced a terrific picture and awesome Atmos sound. The one review I read pitched it as okay with too much cgi. Well, that reviewer didn't know his history. A WWII movie can never provide a cover to cover story of the great war and not even a part of that war. What Midway does is to tell a number of little stories and it does that very well against a backdrop of the attack on Pearl Harbor, action at Midway, all the while setting the stage for prelude to war, the strategic decisions, and how the Navy strikes back at Coral Sea and Midway. The casting is great, the story is very good, and the action, despite loads of cgi, is very acceptably good at showing how the war was fought and battles were won and lost, keeping to the confines of a short time period. Midway is great at depicting courage, dedication, patriotism, conflicts, and relationships. And Midway keeps it all balanced and interesting while avoiding excesses. I have to say it avoids needless blood letting and violence. But it does depict a large scale air, sea, and land war in great detail. Certainly, in a good action movie there are some points of accuracy sacrificed for keeping the story moving or dramatic. Keeping this spoiler free, I can say that the story was so good I forgave every shortcoming. I felt that Midway avoided overdoing the expected while surprising me with new and imaginative story angles. I was not there nor can I speak for any Navy or veterans, but this was a great show. We didn't have the best weapons, bit we had some great fighters who came together to carry the day. Expecting this might come off as a remake, I submit that the direction and editing made for a fresh approach that reeled me in. In just the first 15 minutes I knew it was a winner. Really, I give 4-1/2 out of five stars. The package came on time and was well wrapped. Excellent image and audio quality. High quality Dolby Atmos surround sound. The production quality is quite high. Cast and crew put their backs into this. You will easily imagine what it might have been like. I am not a good reviewer, but I like great movies. This one came with an okay review and it turned quickly into a winner!

yes its a long film but one everyone wanted to know about history and ww2 events should watch. Not sure how accurate the story is since its Hollywood but the film its very well done. Definitely own to watch many times and show new generations the movie is based on true events not call of duty on ps5 or Xbox even though you cannot tell the difference in special effects what is a movie or a game.
