It does not have many thrilling and exciting plots like Train to Busan. On the contrary, the tone of the entire first part of the film tends to be warm and cheerful. And the escape link at the back is also unpretentious and more natural. Of course, everyone will see that the colonel is cruel and ruthless, and the doctor is full of love. In fact, they are the opposite, the military and the doctors, the representatives of political dictatorship and humanitarianism. After reading it, I have been thinking, if we are caught in it, how will we choose.
If you are a doctor, you will choose to save people without hesitation, which most people can do. (does not rule out some doctors who are unwilling to contact patients for fear of infection) But if you are a colonel, can you ignore so many people on the train? However, I believe that the colonel is kind in his heart. From the beginning of the outbreak, he ordered the blockade of the entire train until the outbreak was out of control. Later, the epidemic was under control, and when he acquiesced in allowing the female doctor to call Chamberlain, he had already made concessions. However, it backfired. Because the contact radio was damaged by shooting, it was impossible to contact him. In the end, many innocent lives were buried in Cassandra. under the bridge. In a sense, this disaster was avoidable but still happened.
I can't say that the colonel is stupid and loyal, but I still feel sympathy for him. The dialogue with the female doctor at the end moved me very much: "Although it is disgraceful to be a soldier now, since you have become a soldier, you must be a good one." Many times, we are in In his position, he has to seek his government, hold his duties, and fulfill his responsibilities. Even if it is about life and death, when the interests of the organization are violated, we must act decisively. The duty of the doctor is to save the wounded and relieve the pain of the patient until recovery, while the duty of the soldier is to reduce the spread of the disease and cause unnecessary panic. We're just doing our part, what's right and wrong. If there is really a mistake, you can only blame the head above for not working well, and the orders that come up are all unsatisfactory.
There are so many unsatisfactory things in the world, what are we capable of solving them one by one, we can only do our best and obey the destiny. Do what you need to do and what you can do, and leave the rest to God.
