I've seen the dubbed version on CCAV6 before (it's a good match) and gave it four stars. I took the extend cut a few days ago and watched it again in four and a half hours. It didn't feel good the first time, but such a long movie is pretty good for people to watch, let alone watched it twice. I like the flying flag and the soundtrack at the beginning, and the war scenes are like everyone's praise. It was also found that the same person appeared in two street escapes, which was obviously a bug in editing. The cause of the war is not clearly stated, or not at all. In order to highlight the protagonist, avoid it. Although the North is not very good, after all, the southern slavery system is the economic foundation and is over-beautified. The southern army did not expect that it was not easy. The feeling of fighting between the miscellaneous army and the regular army could actually win a few battles.

    A relatively objective reflection of the Civil War. The position of the North, the position of the white South (Freedom and Independence), the position of the Black South (I want liberation). "Gone with the Wind" is relatively more south, and "Glory" is more north. Interspersed with the shooting of the Northern and Southern Irish is very meaningful, the melodious flute, the Southern Irish weeping that the Northern Irish brigade forgot how their fathers fought for independence in Ireland against England. Yes, in terms of the level of national integration consciousness in the United States at the time, independence was legal, and if you went south, it was aggression; this is different from China, where China's national consciousness has been formed, Jiangxi people will never think that Hebei people invaded, just Think of it as a war of unification. In addition, this film contributed three firsts: the first time I saw the street fighting of the Civil War; the first time I saw the platoon tactics and the use of bunkers, the brothers in the south are not authentic; the first time I saw the platoon tactics and the attack. camp.

    There is no moral judgment, it is fair to tell the reasons for the participation of the warring parties, and also tells about their heroism, the feeling of heroes cherishing heroes, unlike the three major battles of a certain studio, it is really crazy to chase the poor and beat the underdogs.
