Midway is a very good movie. I was shocked, during the disasterous American torpedo bomber raids on the Japanese carriers, that the Zero pilots would pick off the bombers’ rear gunners and you could see so much blood. It was horrifying and exciting at the same time. There was some hideously unnecessary inclusion of wartime footage during action sequences, and you can actually see aircraft which are irrelevant to the battle flying around as if they were (Curtiss Helldivers, squadrons of Grumman Avengers, Hellcats). Still, when I first saw this movie in the seventh grade I loved it because it told a good story, and I like it just as much eight years later. You will like it, too. I recommend it!
