On the whole, there are no big surprises, but it is not disappointing. It is a relatively normal American war movie.
The film probably tells the story of a legendary sniper of the US Navy SEALs during the Iraq War. From his childhood upbringing, until he entered the battlefield and finally died, it focused on portraying him in the face of the enemy and his family. process of change.
The focus is to highlight American-style personal heroism and anti-war thinking. Although anti-war thinking has been smashed in the United States, domestic war films rarely involve this level. This may also be related to our self-defense and counterattack, but Personally, I feel that no matter what kind of war is, it is cruel to those who live in it. While we pay attention to the justice of war, we can also pay appropriate attention to the cruelty of war to warn future generations of the consequences of war. cruel consequences.
Personally, I think the biggest highlight of the film is that at the end, the protagonist, as usual, took the initiative to help the veterans who came back from the army but failed to integrate into society, but was shot and killed by the same veteran on the way. A very long shot is used to show the eyes of the protagonist’s wife and the veteran. The film does not explain why the veteran shot the protagonist. I think it is really difficult to find out what the real reason is, because the veteran is very likely to be severely punished. The torment of the traumatic syndrome has been frequent, and the second is that the ending without an answer will be more meaningful, allowing people to reflect more deeply on the consequences of the war.
