Patriotism is better

The Cold War period was the golden age of patriotic movies. The intensification of external contradictions, armed conflicts that occurred from time to time, the desire of the masses for security, and the prevalence of personality cults all provided good soil for patriotic movies. However, with the end of the Cold War, The main contradiction has turned inward, the former patriotism has gradually become kitsch, and the accumulated dissatisfaction is gradually manifested in the orientation of the film, which is gradually occupied by films of reflection, sarcasm, satire, ridicule, and even attacks on those in power, such as South Korea's "Terrorist Live" " and the like, although it is not a masterpiece, it has also received good reviews for a while, and patriotism-themed films have gradually become regulars for some B-level films.
In fact, this is also retribution. There are three treasures in patriotic movies: praise, passion and sensationalism. With these three treasures, the box office word of mouth cannot run away, and the popularity is better. Disasters and blessings rely on, and blessings and disasters lie in the back, and now this has become a reality. The shortcomings and drawbacks of patriotic-themed films, so this kind of film is really difficult to make in the current situation. This film is a very orthodox patriotic-themed film, but Mr. Wood has subtly downplayed the role of the three treasures. Therefore, the movie once felt dull, dull, and even a little numb and procrastinated, and the actors sometimes gave people a feeling of being dull and overwhelmed. In the end, the relatively simple part of this movie still moved me. This is the friendship in arms. After all, the old man was a soldier and participated in World War II. Intuitively, he still grasped the most precious part of this movie. How to make patriotic movies without Sanbao is really a problem. Fortunately, the old man has accurately grasped the most valuable thing in this type of movies-simple, documentary-like style, which is also the future way out for this type of movies.
In the end, the old man couldn't help but take a bullet time at the climax of the movie. Xiao Xiao was enthusiastic and showed the funeral caravan with real footage. Xiao Xiao was sensational. The funeral was full of golden wings and praised Xiao Xiao. one time.
