Everything is good, it's better to talk better

12 Warriors can be regarded as a typical negative teaching material for a war movie. The special effects, scripts and so on are all made like a movie about to do big things, but the comprehensive narration method makes the values ​​conveyed by the movie superficial. .

The whole movie feels like I want to talk about everything, but nothing is in place. From the patriotic enthusiasm of the American soldiers, the love of the sons and daughters of the soldiers' family members, to the personal charm of the generals in troubled times, the complicated political situation, to the growth of the protagonist, to the two factions of justice and evil, the director wants to express quite a wealth of aspects, but A lot of good ideas are mixed together but it is inevitable that they don't seem to be in place.

In fact, looking at every excellent war movie, what you want to embody is always a little bit of essence. The complexity of war cannot be summarized so easily. Falling from the Black Hawk. Forrest Gump. Rescue Private Ryan. Minefield. Bloody Battle at Hacksaw Ridge. They all describe the silhouette of the war from a glimpse. And the content of every glimpse is worthy of reflection on humanity.

It's a pity that the director wasted such an excellent casting and special effects.

However, the general who is not swift enough to shoot and shoot on horses or guns is still a little bit to make complaints?
