Lao Mei, too many literary dramas is a terrible thing for war movies, and literary dramas and martial arts dramas are not interwoven, but each account for half of it. I trust the audience's determination too much. My little friend next door kept asking his father, when will the war be fought?
Old Mei, I have no problem with you choosing a young actor who looks like you to play the role, but you should find someone with good acting skills. In the first half, the literary drama was so heavy, and I found someone who could only grin and grin. I almost mistakenly thought that he and Forrest Gump were the same kind of people. This male protagonist's pick-up and dating scene made me almost guilty of embarrassment cancer. With such old-fashioned plots, unnutritious dialogue, and a giggling male protagonist, this supposedly beautiful scene is really lackluster. The male protagonist's performance is not to mention that he was thrown out a few streets by the old drama bone Weiwen Hugo, even the female protagonist who smiled and frowned and slapped his mouth at random, suddenly woke up, crying and laughing for a while and accepting the proposal. . It's no wonder that father and son, who should have had a strong conflict, didn't have many rival scenes. How does Xiao Xianrou play with the old drama bone? It's not in the same order of magnitude at all. By the way, I would like to praise Weiwen Hugo. He is a play and his acting skills are really good. In the scene where the eldest son joins the army and the whole family eats, the trembling of the lower lip of an old alcoholic and an old father before he wants to talk, at that moment, it simply represents the harm that all wars do to people. It's a pity that there are too few scenes for Hugo, and the second half is almost invisible, alas.
Lao Mei, it's okay to shoot feelings, and it's okay to shoot the hell side of war, but it's a bit too screwy to shoot a war hero who regards murder as a crime. The hero himself won the Medal of Honor for saving lives, and it's okay not to fire a shot, but in the end he won Hacksaw Ridge because the hero boosted morale in the army, which is not good. Is there something wrong with a hero who refuses to kill and encourages others to kill with all his might? To film the brutality of war, you'd better go back and watch the full metal shell of Apocalypse Now, even the new movie Fury is better than you. The so-called cruelty of war is not as simple as the Japanese army first beat the U.S. military, and the U.S. military came back to beat the Japanese, nor is it the ideological indoctrination of the American soldiers from the hell of failure to the paradise of victory. In the whole second half of the war scene, what I saw was not the harm of war on people, but the visual impact of waves of blood stirring hormones. I think, how many of the audience who walked into the movie theater to see this movie wanted to see Doss's life legend? How many are rushing to the word bloody battle? As a commercial film, it advertises the value of not killing, but in the end it wins the box office by realistically restoring the killing. Is this a kind of hypocrisy?
Old Mei, it’s okay to shoot the fierceness of the Japanese army, and it’s okay to give the opponent the necessary respect, but at the last moment of the movie, it’s not necessary to endow the Japanese army officers with such beautiful long shots of cutting their belly to suicide, right? You beautify them so much, not to mention that you are not worthy of the American soldiers and soldiers in the bloody battle in the Pacific Ocean, at least to the ordinary people of Ryukyu who were kidnapped by the Japanese army and cried and went to "Jade Break", it is disrespectful. Ryukyu is not native to Japan. Originally, the Ryukyu people have not given up their resistance. The Ryukyu people who resisted the Japanese colonization suffered the devastation of the war. Isn't this cruel enough in itself? The cruelty of war is not just in how many American soldiers die! Neither Australia nor the United States has ever been attacked, occupied or ravaged by the Japanese. I think, if you let the Japanese ravage the United States and Australia for eight years, fourteen years, or a hundred years, see if you can still give these devils such an old and beautiful close-up. It is enough to compliment not killing people as a great tribute in war, and it is even more ridiculous if there is nothing to engage in cultural exchanges with opponents.
Old Mei, I'm talking about redemption and salvation in war. You still have a lot to learn. Go back and play Master's Salvation Soldier ten times.
I can hardly agree with the value of this film. If it were then, maybe I was the millions of ordinary American soldiers who took up guns and went to fight. When I see my comrade being killed, my first reaction will never be a bullshit feeling like "killing is the greatest sin", but to kill a little devil, no matter if you use a gun, a knife or a stone with your teeth violent.
After leaving the movie theater, I suddenly felt relieved. In fact, the so-called legendary life of Doss was just a story of a stubborn and lucky lucky man. He is unique. If there are too many Doss, it is estimated that Eisenhower and Roosevelt will be the ones who will suffer. Needless to say, throughout World War II, there were idealists like Doss in the U.S. military, and the U.S. military had to be beaten by Nazis and devils.
In addition, Director Mei's original "Braveheart" is very good-looking, and its value orientation is quite normal. Why has it been so wrong since the filming of "The Passion of Jesus"? Maybe it's my three views that are wrong, no matter how stupid a belief makes a person or commits two more crimes, it is worthy of respect, right?
