      Aidan B Washed out and totally reliant on CGI. The lack of attention to detail or continuity prevented me watching more than five minutes. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/24 Full Review Kent W This was a tough one. With a bigger budget, this could have been a classic WWII movie. If you get past the rough script and forced CGI then you'll find a tough movie about survival during WWII. And even with the rough CGI, there are a few scenes with carrier takeoffs that are spectacular, especially when the planes are falling into formation. I also thought the soundtrack was very well done. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/23 Full Review John B I thought it was ok overall, but seemed to be more of a battle summary of Midway along with some of the hardships that the men encountered out at sea for survival Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/23 Full Review M G This is a pedestrian war movie effort; pedestrian storyline played out with pedestrian acting. VERY loosely based on a true story, Dauntless works a very predictable lost-at-sea story into a paper-thin dramatization of WW2's battle in the pacific theater. Inferior to Midway or Red Tails or Devotion, if you've seen any of those films then there is absolutely no reason to forfeit a couple of hours of your life to this one. Aside from some decently-done flight sequences, the most compelling note of the film is the answer to the question; Whatever happened to Judd Nelson & C. Thomas Howell? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/29/23 Full Review Richard J A horrible movie. Unrealistic CGI. Depressing uninteresting dialogue . A real dud. Waste of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/16/22 Full Review Dallas J Poor special effects, Just fair. Hard to care about these characters....
