A peaceful movie, a "crazy alien" character

In terms of war scenes and authenticity, this film is superior to "Pearl Harbor" and "Dunkirk". The scene of a large number of torpedo planes and bombers diving and dropping bombs is very realistic. The audience seems to be on the plane, facing the Japanese air defense The artillery fire dropped rapidly, and every moment there was a possibility of being shot into the sea. However, in terms of expression, this film is not more sensational than "Pearl Harbor", nor is it deeper than "Dunkirk". In addition to portraying wars, love, family, comrades-in-arms, relations between superiors and subordinates, relations between enemy and ourselves, and relations between friendly forces are also comprehensive. There is too much to talk about. In fact, it is only necessary to highlight the affection and trust of comrades-in-arms. In trust, the attitude towards deciphering Japanese military messages should be the top priority of this battle or this movie. Because the film strictly restores this turning-pointing battle in World War II, the plot is fairly stable, and there is almost no room for innovation or interpretation. It may be that the director was afraid that the audience was not familiar enough with the background. The film first focused on the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in chronological order, and then briefly described the US military bombing of Tokyo. After using half of the film length to pave the way, the battle of Midway was opened. This is not so much a hot-blooded war movie, as it is a history lesson that pays attention to details. What needs to be praised is that the film's portrayal of several main characters is impressive. I think the top pilots have a solid character. I didn’t expect the protagonist dick best to be a “arrogant and arrogant” sprayer. He looked down on this and didn’t like that, and his mouth was forced to talk. In fact, the skill of flying a plane It’s harder than lip service. Not only does he regard death as home, but he also has a strong sense of responsibility. In the end, I admire him. I think the intelligence analyst is the image of the dignified and intelligent eyes, like the layton in the film. In that way, I didn’t expect the most awesome joseph rochefort to look awake, wearing pajamas and plush slippers in front of the leader, he was still taking medicine when the leader did not come, and many of his colleagues came from the military band. ...Maybe, joseph rechefort, like dick best, are the "crazy", "weird", and "heterogeneous" in the industry. They don't seem to be so likable, but they are the heroes of the war and turn things around. key. People who are peaceful and stable can't really make history. To sum up, the film is given a four-star rating of 7.5 points.

    Dive bombing is too romantic. From Pearl Harbor to the Marshall Islands to the bombing of Tokyo (introducing a little Chinese theater) to Midway Island, the scenes that can be used are as far as possible without nonsense, how to decipher the code and set the Midway Trap without wasting writing and ink, how to show the events that are familiar to the public, Without omitting key information and providing some new perspectives, I think the script is handled very cleverly. The character setting is considered a group portrait. How brave in battle and how tragic death is in battle, borrowing the interpretation of wolf-eyed men like Skrein, the sense of oppression is sufficient. The U.S. submarine suddenly appeared in the naval battle and disappeared. This is a new idea of ​​​​a war movie that is destined to catch a bright spot without a panoramic view. There is Chinese capital behind this film, and the combat goal has always revolved around the aircraft carrier. Combined with the reality of the acceleration of the Chinese aircraft carrier, there is a political meaning behind this "aircraft carrier doctrine". The biggest flaw is that the anti-aircraft gunners are laughing frequently, and the director really didn't find the gangster? In the end, the shots of dive bombing against naval guns were too exciting, and the aerial combat shots were all done very well, better than "Memphis Belle" and "Tiger!" Tiger! Tiger! ""Letters from Iwo Jima" and other broken films are much better.
