Overall, Outpost is a very real movie, Middle Eastern, Afghanistan, Taliban, American GI, dusty, dusty, and full of elements. The US military with the m203 grenade launcher + ACOG scope attached to the m4a1 carbine played against the Taliban holding the AK. It was very lively, but the reason why the Taliban was able to kill a few US troops was really due to the condescending terrain and probability luck. (Additionally, the Taliban's RPGs and mortars also pose a great threat to the U.S. military, which is reflected in many movies) The U.S. military's current Humvees are really thick, although they still can't compete with Stryker, etc. The thickness of the door and glass is increased several times compared to the Hummer in the Black Hawk in the 1990s. The machine gunner has a rotatable bullet-proof machine gun tower with bullet-proof steel plates and bullet-proof glass that provides sight. As for the old m2 The godmother still has a familiar taste and a familiar formula. A very magical scene in it is that the young master of Dongmu's family, Xiao Dongmu, an American soldier, used a Soviet-made SVD semi-automatic sniper rifle to fight against Taliban snipers. This style of painting is also interesting to look at. Let’s talk about the shortcomings. The disadvantage is that an hour of foreplay is too bland, and a 2-hour movie can completely set up the previous plot in 20 minutes, while the foreshadowing in “Outpost” is too long and even a little dizzy. Sleepy, I personally think that handling the pacing of the movie this way is very unsuccessful. "Outpost" is not like "Blood Battle Hacksaw Ridge", which at least tells the story of one protagonist, and a lot of foreshadowing plots can allow the audience to better understand the character and beliefs of the protagonist. On the other hand, "Outpost" has more than 50 characters. Although a few of them can be seen as the protagonists, the method of deepening the audience's image of the characters by showing the dialogue between the soldiers for a long time is wrong from the beginning.
To emphasize again, it is not that the film tells about the various living conditions and small talk between the soldiers, but that it is not advisable to live and chat between multiple characters for a long time. The first half of the film is too slow. An attack is a flash of a lantern.
In fact, it should be given 4 stars, but it is not easy to watch such a blockbuster during the epidemic. The realism of the movie is also very good, and it is not too much to give 5 stars.
