Those who fought in World War II are considered the Greatest Generation. And executive producers Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg and Gary Goetzman paid homage to these young men who risked life and limb during the global conflict in their award-winning 2001 HBO series “Band of Brothers” and 2010’s “The Pacific.” And now they’ve taken to the not-so-friendly skies in their latest World War II series, Apple TV +’s “Masters of the Air.”
Created by John Shiban and John Orloff, “Masters of the Air” is based on the 2007 book: “Masters of the Air: America’s Bomber Boys Who Fought the War Against Nazi Germany,” the series starring Austin Butler focuses on the 8th Air Force’s 100th Bomb Group stationed in England. It was known as the “Bloody Hundredth” because of the high causalty rate.

There’s a scene early in Midway, the latest misfire from director Roland Emmerich, in which we watch terrified sailors aboard the USS Arizona flee from the flames as the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor. Everything in the scene--right down to the flames themselves, which seem to hover in front of the men--is so transparently fake, so obviously computer generated, that there is absolutely no sense of the horror, shock, or gravity that a recreation of one of the darkest days in U.S. history should summon up.
Even though his movies are live-action cartoons at best, Emmerich is usually on surer ground when he’s doing alien invasions (Independence Day) or the end of the world (2012). Those kind of scenarios allow for a certain amount of unreality in the vast vistas of...

The image of “dive-bombing” is an easy one to conjure in your mind’s eye. Yet I can’t say I ever thought seriously about what the experience of dive-bombing might be like — you know, for the one doing the dive-bombing — until I saw “Midway.” In Roland Emmerich’s convulsive, more-authentic-than-not historical combat movie about the battle that took place between American and Japanese Naval forces from June 4 to 7, 1942, near the Midway atoll in the Pacific theater of World War II, we see U.S. bomber pilots, like the fearless flyboy Lt. Dick Best (Ed Skrein), approach a Japanese aircraft carrier from what must be a mile up in the sky. The U.S bombers zoom down at a nearly vertical angle, like guided missiles hurtling toward the ocean, so that as they approach their target they can blow it up with pinpoint accuracy.
We see all this from the pilot’s vertiginous point-of-view,...
