The theme is always moderate, and the director is always out of control

The theme of this film is moderation, with anti-war sentiments, but not against the government; and it also stands on the American standpoint and regards all Islamic people as people to be rescued and terrorists; it is also expected to be praised by American public opinion. Whose child does not love? But because there is such a little anti-war sentiment in the film, it is said that the anti-war film is too flattering, just like no fool would say that he loves China just because an American came to China for a trip. Compare this film with "Full Metal" Compared with "Field Platoon", Shell" is simply a blasphemy to the classics, and what is even more terrifying is to distort the essence of the anti-war spirit.
The director is worthy of being the daughter-in-law of a Hollywood blockbuster director, adhering to Hollywood's consistent approach of touching the water without touching the substance, and talking about the hot spots without talking about the reasons. Although it is an independent production, the theme of this film is consistent with the theme of Hollywood commercial films. Sexual continuation is a Hollywood ideological work in a completely independent package. Moreover, Kashen's ex-wife still inherits the consistent out-of-control in her previous works. There are splits in both the plot and the theme. It is difficult for her to be able to piece this story together in the middle of the indecision. .
If the Oscar for best director is given to her, she can only say that her camera language is powerful, and more importantly, it tells a war story in the American imagination in a way that is acceptable to most Americans, especially the middle class. . I might as well pretend to say that this woman's level is nothing more than that, and she will not be able to shoot anything decent in the future. No matter how far the technology can be improved, the basic narrative skills and depth of thought determine her at best. That's it, don't you believe it? Let's wait and see to see who is right.

The Hurt Locker quotes

  • Sergeant JT Sanborn: I'm not ready to die, James.

    Staff Sergeant William James: Well, you're not gonna die out here, bro.

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: Another two inches, shrapnel zings by, slices my throat, I bleed out like a pig in the sand. Nobody'll give a shit. I mean my parents - they care - but they don't count, man. Who else? I don't even have a son.

    Staff Sergeant William James: Well, you're gonna have plenty of time for that, amigo.

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: Naw, man.

    Staff Sergeant William James: You know?

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: I'm done. I want a son. I want a little boy, Will. I mean, how do you do it, you know? Take the risk?

    Staff Sergeant William James: I-I don't know. I mean, I just, uh... I guess I don't think about it.

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: Every time we go out, it's life or death. You roll the dice. You recognize that, don't you?

    Staff Sergeant William James: Yeah-yeah... Yeah, I do, but I don't know why, you know? Yeah...

    Staff Sergeant William James: [sighs] I don't know, JT. You know why, you know... I'm the way I am?

    Sergeant JT Sanborn: No, I don't.
