never war

I don't want to presume who is the righteous side. In the war, there is no right or wrong for the fighters on both sides of the war. They are not the ones who started the war, they are only the executors of the war and the biggest victims. It is usually described as cruel in the habit of war, but the performance in the movie can be said to be tragic, not to mention the soldiers who actually went to the battlefield. War is not just about depriving people of life, it is those who are alive who suffer more. Peace is a great and sacred word, but wars happen all the time. Being able to live in a peaceful environment is something that many people in the world cannot seek in their entire lives. I am fortunate that I live in a peaceful era and environment.

    The movie shows that the American officers and American soldiers do not have very high IQs. They don’t think about schizophrenia (Apocalypse Now), they don’t shoot black guns behind their teammates, and they don’t run platoons (field platoons). What is there to look forward to is that the American flag is flying (obviously, the people in this team are the incarnations of the character colonel, with different skin colors and beliefs, but sharing the same brain. Isn't this the strongest and most professional soldier). Ideology aside, the film wants to say one thing: the Vietnam War may be absurd, but soldiers are just soldiers. They can only think of killing the enemy and mourning their comrades. Don't criticize them, don't forget them, "We were fighters." The spectacle of war and brotherhood: more than a dozen incendiary bombs thrown on the head of the North Vietnamese People’s Army are the spectacles of war. Laughing craftsman still has to shock vision and soul, and when two bombs fall on the U.S. military position by mistake, it is time to show brotherhood. The upgrade is delayed. The lives of American soldiers are worthless, and the lives of the "enemy" are not life.

    The main line has brutal and bloody battles on the battlefield, side descriptions of families, and the same perspective of the enemy, which is balanced enough compared to most war movies. There is no focus, the emotional connection is not triggered, and there are still more right-wing ideas.
