The movie is split in two by the literal rosd that our protagonist is trying to cross. We see three U.S. military jeeps driving, followed by close-ups of human faces, one smiling and firing towards the ground. Another grizzled Japanese soldier muttered to himself, "This is the first time I've actually seen the enemy." From this point the film begins to descend to grotesque horror, obsession and profane bodies that never falter, to keep the other body alive. At the road the enemy is obvious,...

The anger that Ichichuankun instilled in "Wildfire" is not only manifested in the level of showing the annihilation of human nature by war. The core of the script creation is more focused on the in-depth discussion of ethnic issues that have taken root for thousands of years, and it is also an indictment of the militaristic government and the spirit of Bushido. And criticism, just as it is difficult and dangerous to move forward in the direction of wildfire burning, the rebellion against the...

8.5 Thinking of Ivan’s childhood, although it was not a path at all, it undoubtedly revealed the pain caused by the war; Ichichuankun focused on the scattered soldiers. In starvation and the remaining battle, human nature was challenged, and cannibalism was only a matter of time. The struggle to survive; the reflection after the war cuts to the point, every bullet, every plain bombed, is as heavy as blood for each nation; soldiers eat salt, a teardrop from the corner of the eye is so moving,...

The 9/10 score is mainly for this film noir vibe, which always reminds me of Apocalypse Now. The soundtrack has traces of Dvorak Ninth. The one-man show and the silent-movie-like treatment go well with this repressed emotion. The editing is on the verge of reaching excellent levels. The visual scene where Yoshio Inaba was killed is...

The war makes people lose their minds and turns them into beasts. The protagonist finally walked to the US military position and said as he walked: I know it is very dangerous, but I want to live a normal...

Dirty, messy, broken. The survival crisis caused by the cruelty of the war almost drove the soldiers crazy, even killing each other, degenerating human nature and moral corruption, and even finally lost the true face of "human" and became a beast. The male protagonist always maintains a child-like innocence in his heart. He cannot tolerate the loss of his companions. He chooses to go to the "new life", which is the new life of the other party, the other party's home, not his, until it is...

The two scenes of taking someone else's shoes are the most impressive. The war forced people to throw away the mask of civilization and turn into beasts and...

The cruel version of "How to Be a Man", of course, "He" is cruel enough. At first, I thought that the male lead was also Tatsuya Nakadai. The more extreme, the more critical, Ichichuankun's editing and scene switching are quite organized, and the most eye-catching is an accumulation montage. The technique is entirely in the service of the narrative, and I love movies like...
