Midway 720p Torrent

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.
The 1942 battles of the Coral Sea and Midway island are retold through the points of view of both sides. When an audacious US air raid reaches Japan itself, Combined Fleet commander Isoroku Yamamoto orders seaborne invasions of Port Moresby in the southwestern Pacific and of Midway Island near Hawaii, invasions that Yamamoto hopes will smoke out the US Pacific Fleet for destruction before the full might of US war production can kick in. The Japanese are supremely confident of victory over the vastly outnumbered US fleet, but they are unaware that US Navy intelligence has cracked the Imperial Navy's codes, allowing the US to deploy aircraft carriers to maximum counteroffensive effect.
I thought this was one of the more entertaining war movies. I liked the mix of the real footage from the war with the newer scenes from the film. The battle scenes were, even though over 30 years old if the filmed parts, or 60 years old from the war footage, very cool to watch, and very accurate in the planes and way they would engage in dogfights. I always find the Japanese military and navy specifically to be both intimidating and impressive, with their big red dots and suns on everything, to their extremely orderly uniforms they would wear. I like the acting even though it is a little lack luster with the pilots in the planes almost always looking overly confident in themselves, even as they would crash and things. I still think the historical point got through, and the film made a lot of sense to me for its affects on soldiers, sailors, and pilots of both sides of the conflict.
"Midway" (1976): This one is as good as "Tora Tora Tora" for recreating a major battle of World War II. Though entirely filled with established stars (and soon-to-bes), "Midway" does a great job of retelling the important U.S. defeat of Japan on the Pacific in 1942. Flip-flopping between the Japanese and the Americans, we watch code breaking, fact checking, logical guesswork, chess-gaming, and just plain good and bad luck at work during a crucial, everything-is-at-stake moment in WWII history. What is especially gratifying is the respect given to the details and truth, as well as the use of much original battle footage. The war was 30 years over at the release of this film, but those who survived were there to see it was done right.

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.
