On the battlefield where right and wrong are blurred, Shan has already retreated, and it is the devil who rules the flesh and blood.

For the first time, Oliver Stone. For the first time, the Vietnam War movie. Perhaps this is the first time that a movie focused solely on war. I don’t know if I will keep asking myself in my heart after every war movie, why is war and what is the meaning of war. I don't know because I can't understand. All actions at the cost of life are shameful, especially countless lives, especially for ugly selfish politics.

Of course, Oliver raised a sharp question in the film, why those people who are not ordinary in real life, when they come to the battlefield, hold up the machine gun, how can the trigger be pulled so without hesitation? Fresh, warm, life, like an insignificant straw. Yes, life is cheap in wars. But what about human nature, what about beautiful human nature. Wouldn't he cry.

It seems that the evil in human nature is ignited, amplified infinitely, recognized, and praised. On the battlefield where right and wrong are blurred, Shan has already retreated, and it is the devil who rules the flesh and blood.

There will always be someone who will wake up in the killing, but there will always be someone who will never return. Human nature is like two sides of a spoon, standing upright and upside down, depending on which side you face.

Charlie Sheen is very clean, the red turban is only a handsome man, Depp really didn't find it, the perverted man in my wild heart is actually serious. Oh, and the jungle is beautifully photographed, the war is real, of course, I have never seen, feel, feel. It is quite satisfactory, but the problems contained in the movie are more acutely reflected one by one. Especially when the civilians were shot and killed, I felt heartache and weeping.

Was the blind Vietnamese who was jumping up and down at the gun's eye with a smile, mocking, or something else. may be.

Platoon quotes

  • Doc: This is bad, man. I got bad vibes here.

  • Chris Taylor: It's the way the whole thing works. People like Elias get wasted. People like Barnes just go on making up the rules any way they want. So what do we do? Sit in the middle and suck on it. We just don't add up to dry shit, King.

    King: Whoever said we did, man? All you got to do is make it out of here, and it's all gravy. Every day, the rest of your life, gravy.
