Another "Beaufort"

This film is a very successful war film. The nature of the war he explored is exactly the same as that of the Israeli war film Beaufort: the fear of imminent death.
War is an inevitable and accidental contradiction. All combatants have the inevitability of facing death, but they always have an illusion of safety because of the accidental nature of death. "Beofert" is about the rocket attacks that come regularly every day, the lazy rockets, the inaccurate rockets, but facing the rockets is indeed inevitable, this is the duty of the soldiers. The same is true for this film. Soldiers who do not enter the minefield know that they face death, but they must face this 50% chance.
Of course, compared with the previous film, this film lacks the discussion of this fate and choice, and it mainly focuses on this fear, so this film has a lot of color. But his portrayal of fear surpassed the previous film and became a Hitchcock-style thriller. Make-up is a major element that makes this film stand out, the true expression of flesh and blood. There is a detail in which a soldier removed the skin of his companion who was stuck on his head. The director did not feature this action to make it more realistic. I must admit that this film caused great discomfort to people. Even people like me who love blood are irritated by the wound in the armpit.
The handling at the end is very interesting. For them, every inch is a place of death, but the pilot stepped on it without fear. The doctor stayed on the spot, drawing a safety line for his body. Everyone feels unreal.
Of course, the main melody reduced the intensity of the film, and the corporal finally closed his eyes after asking about his fellow robe. But as far as war thrillers are concerned, this film is a good attempt
