The Soviet Union and the United States jointly liberated the Korean Peninsula with the 38th line as the boundary. On the face of it, the Lion of Justice helped North Korea regain its freedom and escaped the clutches of Japan. However, as the Soviet Union and the United States each supported the regime in North Korea and South Korea, it directly led to the division of the Korean peninsula, socialism in the north and capitalism in the south. Ideology alone blocked North-South exchanges.
The North and the South belong to the same family. Some people from their hometowns go to the north to join the army, and some from their hometowns go to the south to join the army. On the battlefield, it is possible that their distant cousins are killed. thing. But the possibility is extremely low. Most of the boxes are bombs. But the director cleverly used the most dangerous thing-probably the bomb box, replacing the bomb inside with a picture of his sister, a letter to his mother in his hometown, wine from his hometown, and sweet chocolate. Adding a touch of warmth to the war also shows that the North and the South are at the same root, why it is too anxious.
When one of the protagonists sees through the scope that the enemy sniper is his self-proclaimed future daughter-in-law, he can't do it. Would rather be beaten to death. A bleak love story.
As a soldier, they are just pawns of the interest groups of both sides. When they heard that the armistice agreement had been signed, everyone cheered. What everyone cares about is not winning or losing, but never having to fight again.
When occupying the high ground for the last 12 hours, the US bombers, regardless of the crowds in the melee, regardless of their allies, resolutely dropped the bombs. The task they received was to "cut the mountain", which shows the cruelty of the war.
This film does not blindly belittle the enemy camp. The enemy snipers are beautiful, their marksmanship is superb, the officers are resolute and powerful, and the army is disciplined. I didn’t blindly kneel and lick the U.S. Emperor. When U.S. bombers dropped bombs in disregard of allies, this film accused the U.S. of being "a villain who disregarded allies for profit."
On the other hand, domestic anti-Japanese films blindly vilified the Japanese army. The Japanese army was either mentally disabled or killed. A 5.6-year-old child could kill a few with a slingshot. A woman without the power to bind chickens can kill a few with a pan.
This may be the reason why it is difficult for domestic films to go abroad. Or maybe the real war of resistance was too bloody and miserable, so everyone can only watch the war of resistance movies with joy? But forgetting the past is betrayal. Without the baptism of blood, how can the bloody nature of the Chinese be inspired? Carousel pleasing goats every day, and Chinese people will only become lambs to be slaughtered. You don't even dare to look at it, you don't dare to shoot, who is carrying a gun in the face of national crisis?
The fly in the ointment of the film is North Korea in January. It should be covered by heavy snow, and people can freeze to death on the hills at night. However, except for a few snow scenes, the rest of the film is sunny, especially during the war, it looks like summer. This reduces the difficulty of shooting.
Overall, it is a movie worth watching.
