Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

"During World War II, the Japanese Navy continues to assert its dominance over the Pacific ocean by June 1942. In response, the United States deploys a carrier group near Midway on a mission to launch a surprise assault on the Japanese and ultimately affect the tide of the war. In the course of the skirmish, an American bomber sees, stranded in the middle of the ocean, its two pilots, whose only hope rests in the hands of the PBY Catalina's skeleton crew. Directed by Mike Phillips. " ~ Rovi
