But this is not the main thing. The main thing is that it is entirely for anti-war and unprincipled anti-war. It deliberately confuses the right from black and white, good and evil. To put it more seriously, it completely uses the cruelty on the battlefield as an excuse to completely negate the anti-fascist campaign. Justice. The reason why World War II took place was the insatiable aggression of the Axis powers, while the anti-aggressive side was obstructed by the Appeasementists and was about to be defeated. The whole world was on the verge of being completely enslaved by the Axis powers of Germany, Italy and Japan. Point. It wasn't until the Pearl Harbor incident that the Appeasementists fell apart.
The battlefield is cruel and bloody, but wars are not all ugly. Wars against slavery and aggression are truly just. The film deliberately uses the blood and cruelty of the battlefield to deny wars of all natures, reaching a situation where good and evil are confused and black and white are indiscriminate. It is almost similar to naked intimidation: "War is cruel, no war under any circumstances." (Do not resist even if you are enslaved or enslaved by aggression, because resistance will lead to war, and war is wrong).
The Mongolian iron hoof ravaged Eurasia and slaughtered hundreds of millions of civilians. When the army of Mongolian slave owners swept in, killing all men above the wheel and plundering women, the idea introduced in the film was that there should be no war and resistance. There will be wars, and wars are ugly, so there is only one option left. This kind of thinking can only be said to be an accomplice of the aggressor.
The idea of this film is narrow and pretending, and it will have a great negative impact. Why do you say that? Because just think about this kind of unprincipled anti-war theory that the church hypnotizes what kind of groups the church has. First of all, it must have no effect on the careerists who are keen on enslaving others. The only effect that can be produced is hypnosis. More appeasementists who have swept their doors. If during World War II, all countries appeased as in the early days and did not unite to fight against fascism, but to sweep their doors, when the Axis powers invaded one country by one country, the countries that have not yet been involved will have nothing to do with them. It is conceivable that it will inevitably be defeated by the Axis powers.
So I don’t oppose the anti-war, but it can’t be as cruel, bloody, fearful, confused, and painful as the film advertised in the film. All these will be on the battlefield, but there is also glory, resistance, and justice in war. Heroic, sacrifice. Fight for your family, fight for your compatriots, fight for the freedom of others, fight for your own freedom. It's a battle of justice.
