Cut into the war from the point of view of a pair of ordinary brothers. Brother Zhentai's simple life desire was ruthlessly broken by the war. He didn't understand what ideology was. In order to send his younger brother home safely, he could only keep killing people. He became a fighting hero, only to return home to find that the fighting hero's family, not only were not taken care of, but even had to go to rallies that they did not understand because of the lack of food, but were considered traitors (ironically, an inventory was conducted at that time) Most of the people working were people who had escaped from North Korea) and were to be shot. With his hopes dashed, he joined the North Korean army, lost his mind for a time, and finally met his younger brother who "resurrected from the dead" on the battlefield. In order to cover his younger brother's retreat, he finally sacrificed. The movie is good in every way, and the actors' acting is also excellent. There are also problems, except that the BGM is a little too emotional, and the characterization of the characters is also hastily. Zhentai has a lot of transformation scenes. In the process of Jintae's transformation, it includes not only the eagerness to make meritorious deeds, but also the characters who gradually begin to enjoy the preferential treatment and rights brought by the battle. When he returns home, he finds that his family has been slandered as a traitor and shot and let him join the North Korean army. He became a traitor, then turned into an irrational fighting machine, and finally was suddenly awakened by his younger brother, and finally sacrificed. In order to increase the tortuous experience of the character, he has experienced almost everything that he can experience, which has the effect of catching up with the progress in the space of more than 2 hours. Especially the plot of joining the Korean army, losing his mind and meeting his younger brother on the battlefield and then recovering, the turning point is a bit blunt, and it is not even enough for the younger brother to find his role in front of him. If the length of the movie is about 4 hours is more appropriate, there will be enough foreshadowing to make these transitions more fully. On the whole, it is a very good war movie. It does not shy away from the cruel pictures of war, and it is not a face-to-face positioning for individuals.
