I'm not really a huge fan of WWII films, my mom used to watch them endlessly when I was a kid.
I didn't expect the movie to start off pre-Pearl Harbor. Did I need to see it again? No. There's a whole 2+ hour movie based around it. While the film is title Midway, it went through the events of the Pacific Theater up until Midway. I guess to give a background for people that weren't forced to watch WWII films as children.
The actors did a good job with their characters. The action was also very good. The film featured a lot of dive-bombing, which was both exhilarating and terrifying to watch.
The thing I liked the best was that they cast a famous Texan (Woody Harrelson) to play Admiral Nimitz, also a badass Texas. Good job, filmmakers.

It was definitely on the brink of being annoying. In my brain, I kept comparing the vfx to Dunkirk.

"Mr. Scorsese’s stuff — I couldn’t watch Raging Bull Enough. I couldn’t watch Taxi Driver enough — every time it was on, I would just watch it. I couldn’t stop. I think there’s just, you know, being able to capture something that was real and something you just couldn’t tear your eyes away from. I don’t really know how to articulate it so much. These are all things that hit me young, and that’s why I’m talking about them now. Because they’re the things that opened my eye to movies and they are the ones that drew me to want to see more films. Almost like they chose me, and I didn’t really choose them, if you know what I mean. It’s like, they were put in front of me and I didn’t know what hit me. That’s more appropriate, actually."

Fun!
Took me a while to finally watch this one. There have been more than a couple "not-so-good" godzilla movies made that made me wary. This one, however, turned out pretty good. The acting was good(Millie Bobby Brown impresses again), the cinematography/ effects were great. I appreciate that they went with the "older" look to the monsters(they were awesome). The action scenes were intense and the story(whilst taking a lot-and I mean a LOT-of liberties with science and nature) was very entertaining. A few cheesy jokes, a corny scene here and there, a couple jump scares and the remake of the Godzilla song thrown in make this a fun watch for everyone. This is what a movie should be-entertaining and fun(even with the socio-political undertones). REALLY worth a watch!

Not bad, far from great. Good to see Idris Elba in an action film. One to watch if nothing else is on.
