The abuse Rowan put her through, only to be forgiven because 'he didn't know' was disgusting.

David McK (3372 KP) rated Midway (2019) in Movies
Mar 26, 2023
When I was at school, the Battle of Midway was barely touched upon.
The Somme? Yep.
The Battle of Britain? Absolutely.
Pearl Harbour? Briefly.
That, I'm guessing, would be completely different if I lived in America (instead of, as I do, Great Britain).
So Midway, itself, was a battle that I really only learnt about in later life and then really only in the most general of terms.
This movie seeks to retell the events that led up to, and occurred within, that battle after the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbo(u)r that led to the US joining the Second World War, Unfortunately, it's largely forgettable (and largely bloodless), with none of the cast really making all that much of an impact.

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Battle of the Sexes (2016) in Movies
Sep 24, 2017
Battle of the Sexes breaks little new ground as either a sports film or a lesbian romance, but it’s lively, funny, and, if you’re unlucky enough to be a feminist in 2017, vicariously wish-fulfilling.
