Lost one star to my unfamiliar America. Under the influence of domestic ideology and the construction of the Internet, there is no good impression of the films that involve the US military force.
Four stars given. One star is given to the content. According to my personal understanding, this is a movie without a "plot". What should happen is a normal occurrence, it didn't grab people's hearts - it won't happen if you have to go into the safe zone and give you a shot; if you see a bloody church in a helicopter, it will all die without accident, and there will be no exceptions to keep you here The plot is procrastinated; except for the main line of saving the doctor, I did not spend too much time on other things. Even if there are unexpected factors, the goal of bringing people to the designated place has not wavered.
Another star for this hidden theme of Africa. Most of the news about real suffering in this world is in this land. When the captain found Dr. Ken and successfully persuaded her to leave, he said: God has abandoned Africa. And what I saw along the way confirmed such despair.
One more star for combat squads. The U.S. military's combat deployment is really not a blow, just what it shows in the movie is enough to be amazing. In the first half hour, it didn't stand out too much, but as far as the captain's request for Dr. Ken was backward, he could figure out what they were thinking about when carrying out the mission. As it got closer and closer to the mission destination, two waves of conflicts were encountered. One spontaneous, one passive. In the spontaneous game, the entire team was unhurt except for the captain who was sneak attacked and stabbed in the arm. They wiped out the opposing forces cleanly, with a ratio of 1:2 combatants. In the back, there is a combat pressure of about 1:45. Even with such a disparate number of comparisons, it is still possible to deal with it in an orderly manner. The team of seven people is divided into two rounds of attacks, and they take turns to fire and retreat gradually, and they have good cover, and the retreat is oriented. The target Characters are properly protected. There are many less shots of people being shot in the past, but it gives me a more realistic feeling of war.
The last star is for the primeval forests of Nigeria. I was surprised to see the white-faced ape yawning with its mouth open.
As for Lena, the target character Dr. Ken in the film, played by Monica Bellucci, I don't know why I feel that this character has been ignored, and has never entered my field of vision in the whole development, except for the quarrel at the beginning (but I think that the quarrel was a little too emotional.) Maybe the director wanted to express the theme of Africa, and the main line decoration on the surface was much less. But even if I think so, I'm still a little dissatisfied with Bellucci's performance. I've seen three of her films. Apart from the good themes, there doesn't seem to be any place where she shows her acting skills. Her beauty is so vast that it makes me a little tired.
I don't know if the black soldiers in the combat team were played by the director, but he didn't pay attention to it and didn't study it carefully. He said: They are all my compatriots. This sentence is very central, and it is what the film wants to express. The title of the film is "Tears of the Sun", and I suddenly realized that the African people love totems, and the sun here has the meaning of totems or sustenance. And the most direct metaphor is the country of Nigeria. Because of the turmoil, there are tears of compassion. The name is so poetic. The director loves this country.
