Story Synopsis:
Just six months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of Midway was waged in the Pacific. This movie tells the personal stories of the courageous men who fought this battle for both the United States and Japan, as well as chronicling the events leading up to the famous fight which was the turning point for the United States in its battle in the Pacific. Look for Tom Selleck, Dabney Coleman, and Pat Morita in supporting roles. (Tricia Littrell)
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture has a dated appearance, with colors that can seem slightly undersaturated at times. Otherwise, hues are well balanced, with generally accurate fleshtones, and undefined blacks. The picture is smooth and solid, except for the battle scenes, which appear to be a mix of stock footage and optical effects, and are revealing of film grain, scratches, and artifacts.
