"This is a true story," the film had to make us awe-inspiring from the start. In the movie, none of the 11 people understand the military. They have never killed anyone, and they have always been engaged in art work. When he first arrived on the battlefield, Stoke found the officer on the battlefield ahead and implored him to order that the artifacts should not be bombed during the battle. The officer said angrily and resolutely: "Impossible, I can't let my soldiers die in battle, just because I can't blow up the roof of the church." Only the president's consent, but not the actual situation of the officers and soldiers on the battlefield. Support, 11 people can only rely on their own strength to save the precarious cultural relics in the war. Which one is higher, art or life? The officers could not understand the awe-inspiring righteousness of these 11 people, but the artists held their hearts firmly: "These works of art are the cornerstone of the entire human modern society. If people from an era are killed, people can still rebuild civilization; but destroy civilization, people live. It's just like an animal." The film revealed a little-known side of World War II, allowing us to see the purity of art and the glorious hearts of 11 artists who were willing to sacrifice their lives for it.
With such a good movie theme, it was also called "11 Arhats of World War II" before its release. But the film was not as successful as 11 Luohan. The appearances of the 11 characters in the film are all average, so in just 2 hours, the director could not portray the characters richly and fully, and their differences could not be reflected. The audience really wants to know each of their stories, but the director just tickled the audience's appetite, each character has only a few strokes, no wonder there are audiences complaining that so many good actors have been blinded in vain. The narration of the film is also tepid. The tone of the whole film seems to be the same, which makes people unable to see the climax, and when it should be suspenseful and tense, it is not tense, there are no ups and downs, it is more like a documentary about a team of 11 people. At the same time, the director kept throwing out American humor in the epic production that should have been serious; the director had to insert a flirtation with the French secretary in the lofty treasure hunt. Wandering between an epic elegiac and a Hollywood hodgepodge of commercials, the film has unfortunately become a nondescript four.
Although the narrative technique and structure of the film are not very good, the film still has many advantages. In addition to the good movie themes, several actors in the movie have dedicated their excellent acting skills, and the costumes, music, and art design also give people a beautiful enjoyment. For those who love art, they will also experience the pleasure of constantly discovering world famous works, because the movie contains the masterpieces of Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Manet, Picasso, Van Eyck, Vermeer and other masters. work.
