75 points, director Jolie made such a film, the choice is safe, not too bad, but not amazing, especially for female directors (people with strong feminism awareness) directing this kind of show some kind of strong will The movies that are written will always appear too feminine, and simply put, they will not be "hard". I felt that the part at sea was not bad. After landing, it suddenly became a replica of "Railroad Man", which also showed the Japanese army's abuse of American prisoners of war, and it was still a muddled version. At the end of the film, there seems to be a 360-degree turn. The director used 90 minutes of footage to show the suffering, and then used 1 minute to express the theme of "tolerance". The turn is very fast and the arc is not beautiful enough. "Railroad Man".
As a digression, about Japan, the prevailing militarism is indeed very hateful. The unrepentant energy of one group of people in the face of the history of aggression really makes you grit your teeth. Compared with Germany's attitude of actively reflecting on war crimes, Japan To be "raw" a lot. This may have something to do with the fact that after the end of World War II, the United States opened the back door to liquidate the crimes committed by the Japanese army in order to protect their interests in East Asia. Jolie may not have made much artistic achievements in making this film, but in reality, it is a good opportunity to criticize Japanese militarism and the crimes committed by the Japanese army in World War II for those who may see this film all over the world. , anyway, it's better than our "hand torn devils" dramas that can directly point to people's hearts.
