From a cinematic point of view

From the point of view of movie appreciation alone, this movie is boring, and it can be said that the filming is terrible. The highlight of the film - the rescue of the hostages, this key event actually only accounts for a little more than one-fifth of the film. It is even more regrettable that the remaining one-fifth was also filmed in the same way.
On the other hand, looking at the real time in history, I think the focus should be how to transfer 500 prisoners of war who had difficulty in action to a safe area. Many tactical arrangements were not reflected, which made me very painful to watch.

The Great Raid quotes

  • [Japanese have just fired mortar shells at the escaping troops and POW's]

    Captain Prince: Get a base of fire on the *Son of a bitch*!

  • [last lines]

    Captain Prince: Never in our history have such a large group of men endured so much and complained so little. Many couldn't shake the fact that their country had abandoned them, left them to die in a foreign land. It was said to be of no significance to the war effort, but for me, it meant everything. It's true, they had been left behind, but never forgotten.
