RTChicago Sun-TimesOct 23, 2004

War movies used to have dash and color and a certain corny sentimentality; Midway hardly even makes us care.

‘…for a movie to be truly boring, you have to raise expectations of quality and interest, and then completely dash them, and Jack Smight's The Battle of Midway does just that…so sombre and self-important, it makes Tora! Tora! Tora! look like MASH…

A project in which it's planning is excellent, but in the big screen doesn't work. [Full review in Spanish]

It's typical screenwriting-by-computer stuff.
