A Little Bit about the All-metal Case
Is it a real soldier to go to war with a full metal casing and a cold heart? Are soldiers like this? I've never been a soldier, and I don't think I'm qualified to judge soldiers' standards. But there is no contradiction between participating in war and faith in peace. Put faith and peace first. I hate killing people for the sake of killing people. Just like the American soldier who killed 50 buffaloes in the play, go die! I believe in peace, but I will not give up...

I find it hard to say if this is an anti-war movie. Rather than anti-war, I think the director wants to capture the elusive state of human nature in extreme conditions. The film does capture the devastation caused by the war from beginning to end, but in some shocking shots, the director's mood is scrutiny and calm, rather than compassion and criticism. Not to mention the scene in which Pyle committed suicide, but to the depiction of the last Vietnamese girl's struggle before her death,...

Put on the "Peace Medal" for the soldiers who murdered women and children
At the beginning of the movie, in order to emphasize the action, there are many moving shots, derailment shots that are pulled back, lifts and pans. Coupled with the never-ending roaring of the instructors and the sound of the snare drums, the hard days in the barracks are portrayed in this way, and the contradictions are quietly coming. The camera pushed the fat man's face, a numb close-up, in contrast to the slightly cute smile before, the external pressure increased, and the...

Naked human nature is extremely fragile and ridiculous
Kubrick can always strip the nakedness of human nature, as if you are in it, ruthless, in a dark corner, you have witnessed everything, you follow the plot, and you can't help thinking, if it were me, it would be the same.
What was the last straw that broke Bill? Is it natural oppression, mind control, torture of dignity, or disgust by comrades-in-arms? Mostly yes, but more of a self-isolation and incomprehensible despair when asking for help,...

viewed separately. J's part on the battlefield, because of the atmosphere rendering + film texture + shooting technique, makes people feel immersed in the scene, plus the background sound of ( ), I once put down the headphones and just looked at the picture. The appearance of the sniper's true face, the close-up of Joker's face before pulling the trigger, the light and dark flames beating inside and outside the painting, and Joker's face split into light and dark halves, hit my heart. There...

Foul-mouthed instructors trained these killing machines. The United States, a country that constantly advertises "peace and freedom", is synonymous with "Born to be kill"....

Love the training in the first part is more than the battle in the second part, maybe because Kubrick showed hell in the smoke of gunpowder compared to other directors, he was more cruel and directly filmed hell between human interactions, there is no artillery fire, There is no flesh and blood flying, but the torment of the spirit is no less than the real battlefield. Is the cruelty really the battlefield? Or are some elements of our human nature already doomed to...

It's not just one movie, it's two movies. In the first half of the film, it can be called a classic, with stunning lines, well-placed character settings, including catchy PT songs. In the second half of the film about the Vietnam War, it was a little procrastinated, but the final female sniper with an enemy N was still quite exciting. Of course, all kinds of meanings are on their own YY. All in all, it's an amazing film, even though it's a year older than...

Telling a story of the gradual loss of humanity's struggles in an eerie comedy setting, Kubrick literally has made all kinds of movies over and over again. . War is bad, killing is bad, human nature is...

Kubrick put the real cruelty of the war here, the death is so close, the soldiers sacrificed their lives for this unwarranted war, just like the movie said: "They took our freedom and gave it to the Vietnamese, Vietnam People don't accept it, I think they think life is better than...
Gny. Sgt. Hartman: Your ass looks like about a hundred and fifty pounds of chewed bubble gum, Pyle. Do you know that?
Pvt. Pyle: Sir, yes, sir!
Gny. Sgt. Hartman: Get up here, fatboy! Quickly! Move it up! Move it up, Pyle! Move it up! You climb obstacles like old people fuck.
Gny. Sgt. Hartman: Move it up! Quickly! Hustle up! The fucking war will be over by the time we get out there, won't it, Private Pyle? Move it!
