The movie "Sand Castle" is the story of Americans viewing the war in Iraq, or the story of American civilians viewing the war in Iraq. Aside from the political significance, for the people, the war represents casualties. The Matt in the movie is for I only came to join the soldier after saving up for tuition, so I intentionally injured my hand before going on the expedition. It’s not surprising that everyone knows that there will be casualties on the battlefield, and it is reasonable to escape. The movie is mainly about the story of the soldier Matt from escaping from war to being responsible and responsible. However, I think this movie impresses me with the evil environment in Iraq. You must know that there are still countries at war and bloodshed. Casualties, civilians are innocent, but they cannot escape. They face the test of life and death every day. Because the reservoir was destroyed, the soldiers had to enter the non-controlled area to send water to repair the reservoir. It was originally a good thing. After the reservoir is repaired, the locals can have water to drink. However, because of the unstable situation, the extreme is armed confrontation, and the simple thing becomes In a complicated situation, the locals were afraid of reprisals, so they refused to help the U.S. military build reservoirs. Extremist terrorist organizations attacked the house all the time, even hurting the locals. Even the children were not used as a tool for extremist terrorists to cover, even at the expense of human bombs. , This is a terrible thing. Imagine that if we are worried every day that people walking by will suddenly explode, and we may encounter black guns on the road at any time, then what a terrible thing, of course, it is undeniable in this, American soldiers There have also been cases of beatings of local people in Iraq. The film also briefly described this. This has something to do with the quality and management of the soldiers themselves. Of course, this has caused the disharmony between the local residents and the US military. Anyway, in this war. In China, no matter who is injured because of the war, the only way to avoid this kind of injury is to avoid wars and terrorists. Otherwise, the war may be over and the damage will continue. In the movie, I think the exciting part is that the principal only wants water for the school and is willing to help the U.S. military repair the reservoir. Just as the chief said, this place belongs to the U.S. military during the day and belongs to other people at night. The U.S. cannot protect local residents all the time. The principal was burned to death. It was a cruel reality. Matt felt guilty for this. But the other people led by the principal’s brother continued to repair the reservoir, but it was true that some of them blew up the reservoir again. This was the worst blow to Matt. The result of trust was even more. Disappointment and trust result in innocent people being harmed. It is difficult to explain who was right or wrong. Maybe the person who bombed the reservoir again was a terrorist lurking, or maybe the locals wanted to drive away the U.S. military. It’s all possible. But one or two people really can’t change this war. It takes a long, long time. Fighting for peace, no matter who it is, not allowing innocent people to be harmed is the ultimate goal of war. Different people have different interpretations of the Iraq War. Even if the Iraq War is now over, there are still many regions and countries that are still experiencing more terrible things than war. They want peace~~
