The best war movies I've seen in recent years

After watching the movie, I didn't rush to write this movie review, but read the opinions written by others, and checked the real history of the Korean War. (South Korea's film and television works are really far beyond the domestic ones.)

The Korean Peninsula was ruled by Japan from 1910 until the end of World War II in 1945. After Japan surrendered, the Soviet Union and the United States accepted the surrender respectively at the 38th parallel. In 1948, the two sides of the dividing line established government ideologies for communism and capitalism respectively, and then in 1949 the Soviet Union and the United States withdrew their troops from the Korean peninsula. The Korean War broke out in June 1950, a year after the Soviet Union and the United States withdrew . The first large-scale war in the Cold War was started. North Korea, North Korea, captured Seoul, the capital of South Korea, with overwhelming forces. In September of the same year, the United Nations army led by the United States intervened in the battle, and the situation was reversed. Immediately the Soviet Union joined the war, and a month later China joined the war. The war started until July 7, 1953, when an armistice was declared.

In the Korean peninsula, this is a war of national reunification. When the subsequent countries joined the war, it was no longer a simple unification war. The north and south sides were the communist government and the capital government, and each country on each side had its own plans and measures.

The director described the war from a very objective perspective. In my opinion, it was not from the perspective of the country and nation, but more from the perspective of the soldiers on both sides of the North and South. There is not much description for the various forces. For the countries on both sides of the North and South, the victory of this war comes from occupying an additional piece of land, and even if they fail, they must defend an additional piece of land and strive for interests. As for soldiers, we are facing people who speak the same language and have the same skin color, fighting a war that seems to never stop. What's the point of the events getting longer and longer? Just because you have one more highland on the map and I have one less highland?

Show the brutality of war through the Crocodile Squadron and the female sniper "2 Seconds". Kim Soo Hyuk: A typical person who grew up in war, from a weak college student to a lieutenant, needs cruelty. As with those two little children, there was no Socrates in the war. Shin Ri-young: In the war, if you want to survive, you have to stand on the corpses of your comrades and fight, and you have to constantly numb your nerves and emotions. 2 seconds: Even if we have friendship, but there is no way you are on the opposite side of me, you have no feelings on the battlefield, and you will die if you hesitate on the battlefield. Jiang Eunbiao: The most uncomfortable character I've ever seen. He has the strongest and most powerful humanity. Unfortunately, it is on the battlefield. I don't know if he will hate that he had let Kim Soo Hyuk die on her gun for 2 seconds. Perhaps this role is to see everyone in this war with a relatively "normal" eye.

Soldiers on both sides exchanged supplies , helped deliver letters, wore volunteer army clothes, said "farewell" in the creek, and rotated again and again in the highlands. Everyone is saying that the soldiers don't want to fight anymore, they don't know what the meaning is, and they don't even have hatred. But they can't stop, they can't disobey, they can't run away, and they will face a lifetime of crimes and the most severe punishment if they run away. Just like the 'ridiculous' war in the last 12 hours, everyone hoped that the fog would last until the armistice took effect, but when the fog disappeared, as a state machine, they could only bury the emotional charge.

In the end, Jiang Eunbiao and Xuan Zhengyoon sat in the tunnel and heard the broadcast of the truce taking effect. No one can see this day anymore, let them figure out how much the country gains and loses.

As far as the country is concerned, this war is just a collision of ideologies, a collision of two governments. But from the point of view of human nature, how absurd it is, just like the director's abbreviated Xiaotupo, it is too absurd.

——————For such a comment can only say that it should watch a war documentary, not a movie. This person thinks that a perfect movie is also perfect. The level of appreciation is also amazing ⬇
