Midway
horizontal line

When Japan bombed Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, in Roland Emmerich's riveting, factually based, action-packed, well-paced, violent, star-studded (Dennis Quaid, Patrick Wilson, Aaron Eckhart, Mandy Moore, Nick Jonas, Darren Criss, Jake Weber, David Hewlett, and Keean Johnson), 138-minute film dominated by amazing special effects, the American military retaliated by bombing Tokyo in April 1942, fighting in the Battle of the Coral Sea in May 1942, and engaging in the Battle of Midway in which the intel provided by intelligence officer Lt. Comm. Edwin Layton (Patrick Wilson) and his code-breaking team (Brennan Brown, et al.) was vital to Admiral Chester Nimitz (Woody Harrelson) who commanded the U.S. Pacific naval fleet and the astoundingly brave, skilled, hotshot pilots (Luke Evans, Ed Skrein, et al.) during the decisive battle of June 1942 which ended up being the turning point in WWII.
