It feels average, "Band of Brothers" is in the front, and after comparison, it is slightly inferior. The war scene is very grand, but the relationship between the characters is broken and chaotic. In a work of this type of war film, there are so many group portraits that it is difficult for the audience to follow the plot. The characters are not rich and deep enough, two are okay, the war hero and Eugene, the war hero died at the end, the god-like bird's-eye view camera gradually zoomed out, and there were corpses everywhere, which really made me feel the cruelty and irony of the war, the newlyweds Yan Er, a national hero, the eldest son of the family, in front of bullets, is nothing but a piece of meat; Eugene, a passionate young man who is determined to serve the country, has the only trace of kindness and compassion left, and is unwilling to join forces, but he is still crushed by the war machine Xia almost gave in and wanted to cut off the devil's golden teeth, but he almost stopped insisting. After returning home, he was ashamed of his military uniform and did not want to show off his life, thinking that he was far inferior to those soldiers who were killed and wounded.
There are some plots in the work that feel pity for pity's sake, and thinking for thinking's sake, which can't allow me to fully substitute and think about the pain of war. I found that there are very few scenes of the Japanese in the work. For some reason, I only see the casualties of the US military. In contrast, I can't see the enemy's picture. Personally, the one-sided narrative is a little thin.
The love stories interspersed by every soldier moved me very much. The love was magnanimous and fiery. In the turmoil of the war years, such emotions were especially precious, and the war was so fucked up.
