A dramatization of the battle that was widely heralded as a turning point of the Pacific Theatre of World War II.
The battle of midway is done with captions to identify historical characters. Historically accurate in its major points, a subplot of an American flyer who is engaged to a Hawiian girl of Japanese descent has been added. This is the battle in which the previously undefeated Japanese fleet was stopped in a battle during which all damage was done by aircraft. The opposing fleets never saw each other.
Producer Mirisch was an avid WWII buff and really wanted to bring The Battle of Midway to the screen. Unfortunately, the only way he could swing it, financially, was to keep costs at bay, which meant utilizing a lot of authentic, but grainy, war footage and leftover stock from previous WWII films. (To his credit, the film owns up to the real war film footage right away and is even proud of it.) The result is a sprawling, big-name cast, war epic that comes off as a sort of patchwork quilt of explosions, mid-air battles and plane crashes held together by lots of men in navy or khaki pushing model planes and boats around on large table maps. A jaw-dropping cast was assembled, but is, in most cases, wasted. If the names in the credits actually shared a lot of scenes together or interacted beyond the few moments they do, this would have been quite a spectacle. Unfortunately, Coburn, Robertson and Mitchum only pop in for "go to the john and miss 'em" cameos. Mitchum was so lazy about it in real life that he wouldn't even stand up and plays a character who is bed-ridden with a skin disorder! The primary role in the film goes to Heston, who was a major star at the time. He plays a fictional character who seems to weave through and interact with most of the chief players in the military strategy. (This approach was later used quite successfully in "Titanic", in which the fictional young leads rubbed elbows with characters based on actual passengers as they made their way through the disaster.) Albert has a featured role as Heston's headstrong son who has the bad luck to have fallen for a Japanese-American student who's been sent to an internment camp. Fonda, Wagner and Ford log a bit more screen time than some of their peers, but neither winds up with anything really substantial to say or do, though Fonda does get to deliver the closing food-for-thought line. Perhaps it is due to the truly bland portrayals turned in by those around him, but Holbrook is guilty of some atrocious overacting as a nonconformist commander who discovers the Japanese plan to attack Midway. As for the Japanese, many familiar Asian actors from such TV shows as "Happy Days", "Quincy", etc... stand next to Shigeta and Mifune (who, in a very, very bad move, is dubbed by distinctive voice actor Paul Frees in a growly, blunt fashion) wearing forced scowls on their faces and in some cases sporting deadly-awful, false greying in their hair. The pilots speak in ludicrously modern-day Americanized English as they approach their targets. Sprinkled into the cast are many unknowns who would later make a mark in television such as Estrada, Selleck, Dobson and Kanaly. Other mid-level stars like Markham, George and Corbett attempt to be glimpsed through their flight goggles, the fake clouds blowing on them and the chintzy, studio set airplane mock-ups they are sitting in. Kokubo, as Albert's girlfriend, is the sole female in the film and is a huge detriment. Her very first line, "I'm an American, dammit!" is delivered in a loathsome contemporary manner which immediately discounts her entire role. The script is, for the most part, an abysmal mess anyway. It has the same pieced-together feel as the visuals. In fact, one major character dies at the end solely because someone found old footage of a fiery crash and wanted to insert it into the film! Despite the many flaws, both visual and, to a lesser extent, historical, the film is reasonably watchable just to see that cast go through its paces and to examine the strategies and occurrences which became this important battle. Audiences willing to throw their sense of disbelief out the window can still enjoy the actual plotting and circumstances of the event. There is also one truly horrifying moment when Albert's cockpit catches fire. When the film was aired for TV (in a four-hour, two-night event) additional footage was shot. In an odd twist, Mitchell Ryan and Susan Sullivan were the primary actors (albeit not together) in this footage and they would later go on to play spouses on the long-running "Dharma and Greg". Sullivan's work is quite strong and would have added a lot to the feature release had it been included to begin with (perhaps in place of Kokubo's storyline.) Incidentally, Heston's wig in the added footage is much more flattering than the one he wears in the original film! Heston, Nelson and Estrada had all appeared in director Smight's previous film "Airport 1975". It's a subject that was close to the producer's heart, but unfortunately does not hold up as a memorable piece of film-making.
I was very predisposed to like this film. So, when it debuted I went to the theater to see it when I was 12. Sadly, I noticed that the film was an abysmal mess. The only thing GOOD about the film was the rumbling of the Sensurround sound system at the very beginning (when it showed a bit from the Doolittle Raid). I saw it on TV years later, and it hadn't gotten any better. The movie is about half acting and half old stock footage from WW2 air battles. The parts created by the studio were okay--lots of competent actors doing an adequate, though not especially inspiring jobs. However, the stock footage shows complete contempt for the audience. I am pretty knowledgeable about WW2 aircraft (and was as a kid, too) and I was very irritated to see planes in the movie that were not even in use until after the June 1942 battle. I guess this is sloppy but forgivable. But, to show stock footage of planes that literally change from one type of plane to another in mid-flight shows utter contempt for the viewers (MANY of which will spot these flaws). For example, you might see a dive bomber diving on a ship and then it shifts away to another angle and it is now a torpedo plane or fighter. These sorts of things happened A LOT--not just once or twice. Sometimes, the color of the plane even changed. And, to top it off, much of the footage was EXCEPTIONALLY grainy and unusable. And some, like the plane that splits in half on landing, have been shown 1001 times on documentaries, so they're terribly familiar. Now I am not saying they should have blown up valuable planes just for our entertainment, but come off it folks! Films such as "The Battle of Britain" and "Tora, Tora, Tora" did a much better job of at least ATTEMPTING to get it right!! They used models, existing planes and similar planes--not grainy footage randomly thrown together. This along with a little modern content does NOT make an acceptable movie to pawn off on the unsuspecting public.

The hit Universal movie, Midway, opened in Chicago on Friday, June 18, 1976, in the Loop at the United Artists theatre, and four other area cinemas. An ad read: "In Sensurround--the sights, sounds and actual sensations of combat. So real you can feel it!" In Technicolor and Panavision, Rated PG ___________________________ a5c7b9f00b
