"Catch 22" is a hulu mini-series anti-war comedy, and I have mixed feelings when I see the whole drama finally appear on the screen. When I watched the first episode, it was quite lighthearted. The smoky yellow tone and jazz are full of Italian style (here, we need to add chicken legs to the BGM), which is also a major reason for attracting me. In addition, the war-themed mini-drama labelled with comedy gave me the driving force to start watching. Looking at it, you will find that it is this black humor that dilutes the heaviness of this anti-war drama. The appearance of the protagonist YOYO and a group of beautiful bodies made me start watching the drama with a half-rotten mood, but the plot trend is always caught off guard. YOYO, a first-class retired drum performance artist, began to pretend to be sick in an attempt to apply for discharge from the army and return home. However, military regulations are not allowed. This involves the US military's Article 22 military regulations. The general idea is that only lunatics can be exempted from flying, but they must apply by themselves, but the application itself means a decision made in an ideal state. , the applicant who disproves himself is not a lunatic, so he must continue to complete the flight mission. From the first episode to the sixth episode, as the flight missions increased from 25 to 55 (above), the male protagonist tried his best to pretend to be sick and hide in the field hospital, and tried to persuade the doctor to issue an injury certificate to apply for discharge from the army. During a flight mission, the shrapnel slid between the male protagonist's legs, and the crotch bleeds a lot and almost died. However, the male protagonist's attempt to retire from the army was eventually stifled. In addition to the accumulative flight missions that destroy the male protagonist's defense line, there are also the successive deaths of friends. The storyline continues to escalate and develop. With the departure of Nately in the fourth episode, the male protagonist's mood fluctuates greatly. If the intuitive feeling of the male protagonist in the first three episodes is crowded, then the last three episodes are desperate. By the sixth episode, it is the climax and the end. Before getting on the bomber, the male protagonist greeted the new army pilot. After getting on the plane, he specially reminded him that he did not need to sit in the tail of the cabin (nately died in the tail of the cabin), and could just sit next to the wing to observe. However, it backfired and the plane was penetrated. On the left wing, the projectiles penetrated the wing and reached the body. The male protagonist watched this eighteen-year-old life die before his eyes, and the last line of psychological defense was finally broken. The hero is completely broken. His uniform was stained with blood, and after getting off the plane, the male protagonist showed himself naked until the end of the scene. For him, everything lost meaning, whether it was the eyes of others or the honor symbolized by the Flying Cross. Right now, there is still the roar of the male protagonist in his head, his voice hoarse, and his despair collapses. Stop struggling, just go on like this, the mission never ends, just fly. Whether the war is won or lost, life or death, is not so important. Bombing, bombing, bombing, bombing, ordering. The story ends here. It's an anti-traditional type of war drama, whether it's for the soundtrack, tone, or the male protagonist's eyelashes and body, it's all worth watching. Good night.
