      Curiousness is impossible

      I have nothing to say. I looked at it with evil intentions at the time, but xx broadband network is a cheap! Every key place it actually buffers. So in the end I basically jumped every five minutes to watch it.
      Did not see any taste. It's just that I am very touched by the words of the general's daughter as a psychology teacher.

      what the rattling propeller gave her

      When a kind of affection that you think is worthy of cherishing or praise is used by a dirty and hypocritical soul as a power deal Still delusional about his father's choices about himself and power. . .
      When she tried to use her own way to prove from her father whether he loved her or not, I thought that was not the chance she gave her father, it was a reason she gave herself to comfort her soul, but when the last straw was lost by her father When her ruthless nature was cut off, "Xiao...

      Old beauty's non-theme

      Started like an angel, suddenly turned into a bitch, actually a poor lamb. The video of Eli giving a lecture at the end of the film brings this dark story to an end. I thought it was another Chinatown, but it was more like an unknown recipient, in terms of artistic conception. Anti-military and anti-X is anti-violence and anti-pornography, rethinking.
      So many familiar faces. Jack's father was so skinny that he didn't look like a general. In fact, he was not 60 at the time, so he looked...

      Did the general do right or wrong? this is a problem.

      After his daughter was gang-raped, was the general's compromise and silence for his own promotion or the honor of the military academy, or both? This is an unclear question. Paul and the audience will think that the general sacrificed his daughter's humiliation for his own promotion. But I think that what the general considers more may be the honor of the military school, that is, the honor and disgrace of the individual must be sacrificed for the overall situation. Although this sacrifice and...

      A father's love poisoned by politics


         When a person's political life reaches a certain level, does his heart pay a heavy price for it? After watching this movie, what I think of is Wu Zetian and his poor son. I always thought that love is the theme of life, but I was wrong, love is not the theme of everyone's life, so a father with a bright political future will completely abandon his father's love and his daughter, and let him say it openly : I love her.
         Politics has many coats, but I don't want it to use love as a...

    Evaluation action

    The film is excellent in both the storyline and the performance of the actors   . Because director Simon West cleverly used the technique of suspense, it made "The Generals Daughter" a commercial film with artistic charm. The suspense setting of the film is very attractive. The attraction of the film in suspense has begun from the title "The Generals Daughter". This film uses betrayal, conspiracy, and sexual desire to summarize the...

    Movie quotes

    • [Brenner and Sunhill sit at a bar with other military uniformed men]

      Sunhill: I thought you hated places like this.

      Brenner: I do. However the murderer may be in this room, sitting all smug and shiny... until we walked in. And now maybe he's a little less smug and a little less shiny. And that's pretty cool, don't you think?

    • [Brenner finds out from Elby that Elisabeth Campbell isn't close to her father General Campbell]

      Sunhill: What about the General and Captain Campbell? Were they close?

      Capt. Jake Elby: No.

      Brenner: Why not?

      Capt. Jake Elby: I don't know. You like your dad?

      Brenner: My dad was a drunk, a gambler, and a womanizer. I worshipped him.

    • [Brenner asks Sunhill about her marriage status]

      Brenner: So... Did you ever marry, uh... Major what's-his-name with a gun?

      Sunhill: Yes, I did.

      Brenner: Oh... Congratulations. I'm extremely happy for you, Sarah. And I wish you both the best that life has to offer .

      Sunhill: I filed for divorce.

      Brenner: Good.
