The classic Vietnam War film entered mainland China early, and the first time I watched it was in the era of video tapes. Forest Whitaker is still an insignificant supporting role in this movie. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an extra. Who would have thought that he would become a big hit in the future and be crowned the 2007 Oscar winner.
Taylor and a group of recruits came to the war-torn Vietnam battlefield. The plane landed, opened the hatch, and walked out of the cabin. What you see in the dusty poplar are the battery trailers that transport the corpses and the corpse bags on the floor. I will like Vietnam, I will never forget it, don't want to sleep peacefully throughout the year...", the rumors left by the sloppy and exhausted veteran passing by are like a knife.
Although the U.S. military’s weapons and equipment, communications and transportation levels are quite advanced and developed, Vietnam’s dense and primitive jungle has become a natural barrier, making it difficult for the U.S. military’s clearance operations. The one-year mission period has just come three weeks, so let Taylors recruit recruits. Suffering is beyond words, life is like years. They didn't know that even greater suffering and danger was coming to popq, and the Viet Cong's harassment was their real nightmare. The recruits are even more miserable. No one wants to know your name, no one cares about you, and no one tells you the rules of survival on the battlefield. You are the unwelcome scapegoat. The officers ignore and ignore the recruits when they are assigned tasks. Disdain is too much.
The most dangerous action is to perform a lurking mission, dark night, pouring rain, muddy wetland, mosquito bites, the most terrifying thing is not these, but the sleepy bugs. At dawn, sleepiness struck, but at this time the Viet Cong struck, and the result was a hurried battle. The bullet did not grow eyes, and one of them died inadvertently. Tyler was injured and had to carry the scapegoat for the veteran. There are evils everywhere. Forces, which makes sense. However, after experiencing life and death together, the veterans started to take care of Taylor. It is good for someone to care and communicate, and at least life will be better. However, I heard that Taylor was a rich boy who gave up his studies and came to Vietnam to join the war. Everyone immediately recognized him as a stupid boy who voluntarily jumped into the fire pit. Seeing that Tyler was still "on the road", the veterans took him to an underground bunker. It turned out that this was a comfort home built for them by the veterans, listening to jazz, taking drugs, and Tyler's boss Elias was also in it.
A search operation found a Viet Cong camp and a hole in the ground. A soldier was bombed by a mine trap ambushed by the Viet Cong. A soldier was found hanging on a tree a thousand yards downstream of the river. The U.S. army was enraged. In a nearby village, the U.S. army drove the people out of the cellar. Those who did not get out threw a grenade to death. The US army seized four Czech-made Mik 58 machine guns and enough rice to supply an army. The soldiers began to lose their minds and became hysterical and crazy. They started a frenzied killing. When they caught men with scars, they suspected that they were the Viet Cong. Women protested that they were killed on the spot by Sergeant Barnes because their pigs were killed. When Barnes was about to start the murder, Elias stopped him, and the two men became feud. In the end, the US military decided to burn down houses, blow up wells, destroy captured weapons and rice, drive away all villagers, and razed the entire village to the ground.
Elias became a target of public criticism, a scumbag and a troublemaker. "We have bullied others for too long, and now it is our turn to be attacked. The Vietnam War has been going on for five years, and some American soldiers still believe that the American war of aggression is just and that the American army will win. There are also some people who are sober-minded, Eli Yass is a sober person. Taylor agrees with his views and dared to approach him. This serious disagreement and confrontation caused the US military to start killing each other. In another battle, Elias single-handedly blocked the Viet Cong’s The flank attacked and saved Quan Company, but was killed by Barnes, who was following him. Taylor witnessed Elias being chased and killed by the Viet Cong in the helicopter and vowed to make a good return for Elias. Fairness. Barnes’ public provocation angered Taylor even more, and the two fought. Barnes almost killed Taylor. Taylor was sleepless and vowed to breathe out this bad breath. In a fierce battle, the Viet Cong broke through the U.S. defense line and was in a melee. Barnes repeated his old trick again, trying to kill Taylor in the chaos, and the American bombing rescued Taylor. After the bombing, Taylor found Barnes, who was seriously injured and alive, and killed him with the Viet Cong gun without hesitation. Elias avenged his revenge.
