| Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer  Midway revisits a well-known story with modern special effects and a more balanced point of view, but its screenplay isn’t quite ready for battle. | 9 | |

| CommonSenseMedia Joyce Slaton Battle epic tries hard but is too long, hard to follow. | 5 |  |
| ScreenIt Jim Judy Featuring and favoring spectacle over character and story substance -- even while honoring those who served with plenty of rah-rah patriotism to go around -- Midway certainly isn't a bomb, but four decades from now, kids turned middle-aged adults will be hard-pressed to recall what actors appeared in it and who they played. | 9 | |
