I already had a DVD of this but loaned it to a friend who somehow never returned it. He must have enjoyed it as much as I do. if you can skip over the parts that were fabricated to give the story more of a human interest, the remainder is fairly close to the actual accounts. Some areas were shortened to keep the story within the DVD time frame,but it is still fairly close. I recommend it to others (my wife might not because she has already had to watch it more times than she wants to). super movie.

This original 48 year old movie, filmed in 1975 and released in theatres in 1976, is still a classic. The remake, filmed in 2018 and released in theatres in 2019, told a little more of the story. But the orignal will always be the best version. The TV director's cut was better as it told more about Charlton Heston's fictional charcter and had more action scenes.

DVD displayed what I thot was probably an accurate description of the various phases of this very important turning point in the Pacific war of WWII, if true to real life, an amazing real life story!

This is a great portrayal of one of the most important US victories in WWII, coming only six months after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This is the first time I have seen the battle depicted on film. Very informative and entertaining. Loved all of the first-rate actors who worked on the film.

The DVD was arrived promptly and without any flaws. One must put the subject matter into proper perspective. Midway was a continuation of the Battle of Pearl Harbor. Historians still question why the same radar technology that was so effective a year earlier to detect and target German aircraft during the Battle of Britain was ignored during the Japanese on Pearl Harbor. Nevertheless get a copy of Midway off eBay.

Excellent war pic about a make-or-break battle in WWII. Outstanding cast and performances. Was even well-received in Japan due to even-handed depiction of the enemy, with several soon-to-be well-known Japanese American actors, as well as Japanese film great Toshiro Mifune.

I have enjoyed this movie over the years. wanted an opportunity to watch it without commercials. no critical acclaim but a nice tribute to the sailors and airmen. not too historically accurate as it glosses over the mistakes that led to the death of many airman but at this time in WW2 we were rookies in carrier tactics
