South Korea became a protectorate of Japan in 1895, and became a colony of Japan after the signing of the "Korea-Japan Merger Treaty" in 1910. This small country has often been controlled by neighboring powers in history. Or under the long-term effect of being manipulated by history, there is a bit of inferiority factor in the national feelings of this nation. As far as human beings are concerned, what a person lacks the most, the more he will show off and advertise something. I think the same is true of a nation. The more fragile his heart is, the more he will pretend to be on the outside.

So what is missing from this nation? I think the first is the lack of its own unique history, and the second is the lack of a wide range of historical recognition and respect. The deeper the scar, the more I want to cover it with decorations, the more I feel inferior, and the more I want to get everyone's respect. Generally speaking, this kind of behavior is often reflected in the culture of a nation. The magical Korean blockbuster "Day of the Landing" is quite a good proof. The magic is justified. It does not mention the love-struck Korean-Japanese brotherhood in the film, nor does it mention the chilling "hundred-year-old" relationship in the film. The Olympic Dream", the main line of the story itself is surprising. Chinese netizens have the most direct and stereotyped impressions of South Korea: kimchi and obscenity. The story of this film starts with a marathon and ends with a marathon, and the interesting thing is that the whole story is like a marathon, starting from the ethnic conflict between Japan and South Korea, to the Japanese-Soviet war, to the Soviet-German war, and finally to Normandy. The radiant Japanese and Korean brothers met on the Korean Peninsula, then crossed Siberia together, and finally joined the German army to share a romantic beach in Normandy. This has to be said to be a marathon-like story.

In fact, it is undeniable that Korean films have not been what they used to be. In the past ten years, Korean films have developed rapidly, and a large number of outstanding works and outstanding filmmakers have emerged. Their standards have undoubtedly reached the forefront of Asian films. In terms of the production quality of "The Day of the Landing", this film has completely reached the level of Hollywood blockbusters. The special effects CG technology is very good, the scenes are grand, and the visual effects are outstanding. The whole film is very watchable. . But from other perspectives, this film is also caught in the "bringing" doctrine. Many scenes in the film seem familiar, and many scenes are completely imitating "Bold on the City" and "Saving Private Ryan". In fact, I personally feel that this film is the most The failure is not plagiarism or obscenity. Plagiarism from classics can be forgiven, and obscenity can in turn show that you are very imaginative, but conveying a crude and simple attitude towards the subject is unforgivable.

"Battle of the Landing" is a typical anti-war war film. Although the theme conveyed is anti-war, I don't feel any trace of reflection at all. The film's handling of history and character changes is rough and simple, and it is deliberately created. A feeling of universal harmony, regardless of the different attributes of the viewers, all the Japanese, Chinese, Soviets, Germans in the film are nothing more than revolving around Koreans, and at the same time, the focus of the film's characters has been swaying all the time. , In the end, South Korea showed a hypocritical face, rudely imitating God to "forgive" those who harmed him. The uncomfortable "Great Harmony" in the film seems to have something in common with the notorious "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity". The last time the Japanese held the banner of "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity", and this time the victim The Korean people actually raised the flagpole like a clown in turn. This low-level stealing role exposed the nature of the film. This is nothing more than another show that advertises the greatness of the Republic of Korea.

The arrogant Koreans endured low self-esteem and humiliation and acted like a spoiler to their former mortal enemy. Korean filmmakers really won the true biography of Hollywood's main theme movies. They quietly gave a Korean-style lecture to the world and established a kind of Korean-style universal values. , the Koreans quietly completed a perfect show. And this kind of show is essentially nothing more than a cultural manifestation of Koreans fighting for their national status in the world, but unfortunately, Marshal Kim next door has quietly slapped the Korean nation.

Aside from the above dissatisfied remarks with the color of bystanders, there are many remarkable things about this film. It is at least a very entertaining war blockbuster. Compared with my country's domestic war films, Many aspects of this film are worth learning from our war movies, including technology, narrative, production and distribution system, etc. Only when our country can make such a magnificent war movie by itself, we will not be reduced to decorations for others to decorate the facade ( For example, Chinese girls dedicate themselves to Koreans masturbating, etc.), the appearance of Fan Ye does not contribute much to the whole film. This paragraph can be completely replaced or deleted, but how can Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity forget to win over? Chinese people. In fact, there are many places in this film that can be moved, but the overly deliberate management and preaching of the theme of the whole film destroy these passages, making people feel blunt and boring. But in the final analysis, this is just a commercialized entertainment blockbuster.
The appearance of the two handsome guys in the film added a lot of basic sentiment to the film. The battle-hardened Japanese general in the film was finally influenced by the Korean athletes and understood the true meaning of the co-prosperity of the Greater East Asia, so he changed his face after the war. , defected to South Korea, became a Korean, and finally embarked on the road to the Olympics.


We were all wrong, it turned out to be an Olympic promotional film.
