When it comes to faith, I don’t know what kind of mentality the film has when it depicts the rebels in Nigeria. The rebels who believe in Islam in Nigeria want to eliminate the people who believe in Christ, and they use simple and barbaric killing methods. Killing nuns and priests who prayed devoutly, and killing patients who were unable to resist, obviously affected the audience's attitude towards Islam. As one of the three major religions in the world, the reason why Islam can gain a wide range of believers is that it is impossible to support random killings. In the West's discourse power, the description of Islam is like demonizing China, and it is more out of political reasons. non-religious purposes. The director arranged the cruel and tyrannical behavior of the rebels, I don't know, is it to show how evil people who believe in "cults" are, or to find an excuse for the SEALs to take the initiative? You must know that since ancient times, regardless of nationality and race, there have been cases of torture and murder. Didn’t the US military stationed in Japan also have rape and murder cases? The ugly and cruel side of human nature is not the vendetta between African races that can be solved by believing in God. , seeing the desperate eyes of the refugees, running around for survival, and fighting against death all day long, only then did I realize that living is also a kind of happiness. Reminds me of the Nanjing Massacre, brainwashing (brainwashing education), a child who should enjoy family and friendship, but lives in such a world, killing or being killed at any time, maybe at the moment of death I don't know why . The child who was still in the swaddle waiting to be fed, but the mother's breast was cut off and killed by the rebel soldiers.

There is an impressive sentence at the end of the film: The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. The good man becomes the force that suppresses "evil", the place where the humanitarian flag flies, and the one who will not stand by.

But I have to admit that Laomei's efforts in promoting herself and building a harmonious society are not under the country's Share the charm from across the ocean, even if there is still a big gap between reality and ideal.

The brutality of the war, the African people who have suffered from the war, can they also let the sun shed tears of sympathy in the soft light of God?
