"Refuse to fight / stop loss" -- plain running account

The title of Refusing to Fight Again is a very clear spoiler. A group of soldiers returning from service in Iraq are facing a situation of being called up again. How many of them are willing to return to the place where "the civilians are all RPGs"? The director of "Boys Don't Cry" basically continued the rhythm of the previous work, which was uneventful, but the emotional creation was obviously not as good as that of the former. He adopted a method similar to a road movie and did not give any answers in the end, so the story seemed too bland. The main problem may be that the description of the soldiers' reasons for refusing to fight is not deep enough, and the nightmares, separation from family members, and the death of partners on the battlefield are all lack of intuitive feeling. However, the performance of a number of idol-level actors is extremely good, and Joseph, Tatum and Philips all have very good performances. Recommended by Samsung.

The ending was a bit unexpected. This film is to brainwash American soldiers and their relatives to refuse to fight again. Boss Qian is still wild at heart~

A good anti-war movie in recent years. Some war scenes are more shocking, the overall is relatively smooth, and the transformation of characters and in-depth excavation are still lacking.
