Take a look if you are patient

After reading the introduction, I thought it should be very good. Later, I found out that the length of the film is 121 minutes. Generally speaking, when I watch a film with a length of more than 100 minutes, I will feel a little confused.

For the first 60 minutes, the plot was really slow and slow. I feel that there is no so-called climax part of the whole film. I can only say that the last 30 minutes of the film will make you feel a little more enjoyable to watch.

As for the theme of the film, I have no interest in thinking about the impact of war on people or how cruel the war is.

The ending song is good.

    There is actually no footage of any real war. The story of war annihilating humanity is very ideological~

    Still like the name dilemma, pun intended.
