The soldiers died before the battle, singing and dancing beside the pool in the green zone

Why isn't this movie called "The Truth About Weapons of Mass Destruction" but the Green Zone? In fact, what this movie wants to express is not so-called truth conspiracy theories. These people all over the world have known it for a long time. It is better to make a documentary if you really reveal the secret. It is suspected of blurring the truth if it is made into a movie.

This movie, like Ang Lee's "Billy Lynn's Midfield War", is to express the current strange phenomenon in the United States: "A small number of people are born and die in wars, and most people are drunk and dying to enjoy."

Until the Vietnam War, the United States participated in the war with the mobilization of the whole people and the general recruitment. Regardless of whether it is rich or poor, every family has the possibility of losing loved ones. Therefore, the people have always been relatively anti-war, and the Second World War only entered the war after the attack on Pearl Harbor. , The Vietnam War even led to the division of society. However, now the United States is based on the recruitment system. The soldiers are mainly from the poor class, and even immigrants who exchange green cards as soldiers. Therefore, the general public’s perception of war has decreased a lot, so the United States can repeatedly provoke conflicts, almost There has not been a year without war.

The U.S. Constitution and democratic system should be relatively peaceful, unlike militarism. However, in the alienation of the composition of the military and the composition of the citizens, the complex of oil, military, and military-industrial enterprises has grown stronger and has become a hobby. After the blood monster, only by looking for "enemies" one after another can they survive. Originally, after the Cold War, world peace is no longer a slogan. It can generally keep most parts of the world calm, but in fact, there are more wars than during the Cold War.

However, Americans nowadays don't care about this. The movie "Vietnam War Deer Hunter" was famous for a while, but now "Green Zone" and "Billy Lynn" have been coldly treated, which can be seen. Therefore, the Green Zone not only refers to the security zone in Baghdad, but also refers to the United States itself. After the fight against Iraq, the green zone then hits Iran. Anyway, what does it matter if the United States is singing and dancing?

The road to China’s rise is by no means easy. If you take a wrong step in the middle, you may repeat the mistakes of Germany and Japan. It is absolutely necessary to be cautious when dealing with the United States today. In addition to hard power, the output of soft power should also be strengthened. Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, not just the hearts of the people in China, but the hearts of the American people should also pay attention to it!

    The name of the green zone is very good. A few simple strokes show the contrast between the green zone and the lives of the surrounding Iraqi people! There is also the lame uncle, he is the soul of the whole film, he is the theme that Paul wants to express, his actions and lines in the climax! It's just that the others still need a little polish, but this may lead to another trilogy---------

    The movie is average, and the text is not right, what about the green zone, it is better to call it "the truth of the big killer"! The night battle scene is very dark, with a lot of shaky shots, and it has the taste of a documentary, but it is probably not good for war movie lovers. The other meanings are not very big, but the film reflects the power check and balance mechanism between the US government, the US military and the media, which makes our people think deeply!
