I chose to watch this movie mainly because of my interest in the word catch-22.
What an amazing thing that a number named after "catch-22" has become a term!
What exactly is catch-22? It is used to describe an inescapable dilemma caused by any self-contradictory, illogical regulation or condition. That is, the logical "dilemma" proposition.
Do not understand is not it?
Check out this original dialogue
Yossarian looked at him soberly and tried another approach. "Is Orr crazy?" "He sure is," Doc Daneeka said. "Can you ground him?" "I sure can. But first he has to ask me to. That's part of the rule." "Then why doesn't he ask you to?" "Because he's crazy," Doc Daneeka said. "He has to be crazy to keep flying combat missions after all the close calls he's had. Sure, I can ground Orr. But first he has to ask me to." "That's all he has to do to be grounded?" "That's all. Let him ask me." "And then you can ground him?" Yossarian asked. "No. Then I can't ground him." "You mean there's a catch?" "Sure there's a catch," Doc Daneeka replied. "Catch-22.Anyone who wants to get out of combat duty isn't really crazy." you don't understand what it's talking about until you see it at the last moment;

Speaking of the movie itself, it's a bit like catch-22. There are certain scenes that keep repeating, such as Shi's death on the plane , like Asahi was assassinated...

However, when the subtitles came up, you suddenly understood again what the whole play was about.
Nothing more than a soldier. He was tired of the endless flying and the mean faces in the army, so he kept thinking about running away, but couldn't run away, catch-22 blocked him, and no one could help him except himself. In the end, he can only be himself! crazy?why not?so he used a rubber boat to escape the war...

    3.5 Why is it so strange? I feel that the 19 drama version is different from this. The audio-visual stream of consciousness that appears shows Lao yo's inner activities to a certain extent, which is commensurate with the original work of the interlude, and also maintains the tone of the overall comedy. The deletion and integration are still acceptable, but the emotional precipitation and explanation are more or less lacking. Those who haven't read the original book may feel that the plot characters are confusing. Photography is good. The cast is very strong. Although the fresh meat Martin Sheen has a small role, I am fascinated! ! Tony's scenes would have been better. It's a pity that the old yo and the priest love at first sight were not focused. Arkin and Abbott each have their own strengths and styles. Both versions of Orr are my favorite, the fresh meat Balaban is amazing! The least satisfied is the deletion of Tchaiskov and Clevinger, and I look forward to seeing a better version of yo and Luciana someday.

Catch-22 quotes

  • General Dreedle: Get back in the car, you smirking slut!

  • Yossarian: Is Orr crazy?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: Of course he is. He has to be crazy to keep flying after all the close calls he's had.

    Yossarian: Why can't you ground him?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: I can, but first he has to ask me.

    Yossarian: That's all he's gotta do to be grounded?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: That's all.

    Yossarian: Then you can ground him?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: No. Then I cannot ground him.

    Yossarian: Aah!

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: There's a CATCH?

    Yossarian: A catch?

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: Sure. Catch-22. Anyone who wants to get out of combat isn't really crazy, so I can't ground him.

    Yossarian: Ok, let me see if I've got this straight. In order to be grounded, I've got to be crazy. And I must be crazy to keep flying. But if I ask to be grounded, that means I'm not crazy anymore, and I have to keep flying.

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: You got it, that's Catch-22.

    Yossarian: Whoo... That's some catch, that Catch-22.

    Dr. 'Doc' Daneeka: It's the best there is.
