Midway swings for the fences as a war epic but lands awkwardly somewhere between impressive spectacle and hollow melodrama—the critics agree it's not quite worth your time. Skip it tonight unless you're a hardcore WWII buff willing to overlook sloppy execution for some decent battle sequences.

Plot

This war drama depicts the U.S. and Japanese forces in the naval Battle of Midway, which became a turning point for Americans during World War II.
