This is also a classic action movie. After watching it, I was too impressed. In addition, I recently read some war records.
The handsomeness of Rambo, the protagonist of the story, has been explained by countless people with countless pictures and texts, and I won’t repeat it again, but the entry point of this movie is very interesting. Agent Orange, a comrade-in-arms, tragically died of cancer, and he was arrested and abused by the police because he was a veteran just wanting to have a meal.
In the second half, Rambo saw the only trusted colonel and began to cry about the tragic situation of his comrades who were attacked in Vietnam, and he also suffered severe injustice when he returned to the country.
The film portrays Rambo as a poor man with extremely high military qualities, who has always been reluctant to cause trouble despite his tragic situation - and in his memories, the Vietnamese are cruel and abusive to prisoners of war, and use children to carry out terrorist attacks.
Perfectly shaped the helpless and pitiful soldiers and brutal Vietnamese.
A basic premise is blurred here. The United States, out of its own consideration, has interfered in the countries of the Indo-China Peninsula across the ocean, while the green berets belonging to Rambo are special forces, mainly guiding the (south) Vietnamese troops under Wu Tingyan, and later the northern The Gulf incident broke out, the special operations phase ended, and the United States began to directly intervene in the Vietnam War under the premise of the indignation of the domestic masses.
In other words, America was the aggressor from start to finish.
Of course, as a soldier, Rambo has his helplessness, but this drama does not reflect the slightest Rambo's reflection on what he and his comrades have done, only through Rambo's cruel portrayal of the Vietnamese.
In other words, this film chooses the personal perspective of the aggressor, weakens the injustice of the protagonist and emphasizes and vilifies the resistance of the aggressor.
As expected of a cultural powerhouse, Xuan Xuan, who fought against the five scumbags, came out to learn what is cultural export and what is building a healthy image.
This film largely avoids the depiction of Vietnam, which has been baptized by brutal wars, including the Vietnamese who appear in the second part. The woman represented by Cobb said: I hope to go to the United States one day and get peace and beauty. Life.
America, peace and beauty.
Let's not talk about the current 30,000 shooting victims a year, just what does the Rambo in front of her look like living in her ideal beauty? As long as the police saw him wandering, they could arrest him and beat him severely.
In reality, Vietnamese who worked for the CIA, such as Cobb, were basically abandoned in Vietnam after the war.
And they said in the movie that the United States, where the Vietnamese are serious, is a peaceful and beautiful place - they will make a cake for themselves.
And what about the rest of Vietnam? Selfish and cunning smugglers who have no loyalty at all, soldiers who are willing to be dogs for the Soviets, insensitive villagers who gather in poverty, and women who are willing to degenerate and send them to their homes. This is the portrayal of the Vietnamese in this classic film, and perhaps this is the victim of the aggressor in the eyes of the aggressor.
It is full of poverty, betrayal, numbness, and depravity, seeking justice and rationality for the protagonist's actions, but not the slightest compassion for ordinary people who have suffered from war.
Agent Orange made Rambo lose his comrade-in-arms, but how many people were killed and injured in Vietnam, which was really scourged by Agent Orange?
This war has left Vietnam with 880,000 orphans, 1 million widows, 200,000 disabled people, and 200,000 females. The entire country is underpopulated by men.
Maybe the kid who killed Rambo's teammate was one of the 880,000 orphans.
Rambo said he loved his country, but his country didn't love him. After returning to his country, he couldn't find a job, and he was arrested at the police station if he wanted to eat a meal. In history, veterans marched on the streets for treatment and were brutally tortured. tank suppression.
The film boldly portrays the strength of the U.S. special forces, but also carefully avoids the responsibility of the state that dominates the war.
It portrays the kindness of individuals and shirks the inaction of the country and the American government.
