Audience Review (John Hayes):

My friend and I went and saw the movie this afternoon. I’m a Air Force Vietnam combat veteran and my friend is a 23 year retired naval officer. We thought this movie was so compelling and so realistic.

Today’s technology is absolutely incredible, the battle scenes were outstanding. I am a historical buff and I thought it was very accurate. I loved the way it started at Pearl Harbor and showed how fragile it was in a pacific. Each step of the way you could tell by this great movie how serious and how close it came to be a defeat in the Pacific war. I have read The negative reviews on this movie quite frankly I don’t understand that. So I recommend this very highly especially if you want to see the history of World War II in the Pacific and this great battle of Midway . I think it should be shown in high schools all over America to see what our great nations veterans have done in the past, especially our GREATEST GENERATION!

“I think it should be shown in high schools all over America”

LOL! Like THAT’s going to happen. It’s too “America first”, and we can’t have that.
