Let me talk about the background first: On August 18, 1966, a task force composed of 105 Australian troops and 3 New Zealand leaders encountered a large number of North Vietnamese troops who were heading to southeastern Vietnam to destroy the Australian station in the rubber tree plantation. The arrival was the North Vietnam Elite 275 Brigade, which was strengthened by two battalions. In the following three and a half hours, 108 Australian troops fought fiercely with the 2500 Vietnamese troops. Facing a 1:25 manpower disadvantage, the Australian army organized a defense on the spot. With the support of rear firepower, 18 people were killed and 24 people were injured. They obtained a 5 times exchange ratio (controversial) and repelled the North Vietnamese army. This battle also prevented the North Vietnamese Communist Army from ambushing the Australian garrison.
This movie is about the Australian army. The costumes and props are well prepared, quite restorative and realistic. In the final comparison scene, the actors themselves are very similar to the real characters, so they are very careful.
In fact, I think this movie shows that the artillery is the battlefield winner. Without the support of the artillery, it is basically over. The Turkmen Communist Party has also deeply understood and practiced it, and it is also engraved in the DNA. I have to say that the muscles of the artillery troops are very good-looking and very strong. The film is played from beginning to end, ping-pong-pong, and the atmosphere is very tense, the battle scenes are okay, not very bloody (of course I want to watch bloody, after all, war is not a game).
Movies are about the Vietnam War. Generally, movies about the Vietnam War basically have strong anti-war elements. After all, the first anti-war parade also appeared because of this. Many soldiers went to the battlefield for their country and honor to participate in this failed war. Instead, it became the target of attack, without glory. But this film basically has no anti-war elements. The highlight is that our Australian army has defeated the enemy, and we don't know who is the real aggressor. The Viet Cong is also a bit silly here, it feels like the charge of the Japanese soldiers in World War II. According to the veteran’s memory, the Viet Cong has become a fine monkey, giving you a shuttle or torturing you somewhere you can’t see it (it is said Many of the Viet Cong are played by Chinese). So it feels like promoting the Australian army. To be honest, the Australian army has no sense of existence. I also know an ANZAC who is famous, but it is really fierce. After all, the offspring of death row prisoners are cruel in their bones.
The movie ping-pong-pong is played from beginning to end. What cannons kill people? There is only one point at the beginning of AK. These movie general settings don't need to be entangled. It's meaningless.
