The entire structure of the film is like a string of beads, consisting of one story after another, similar to a song in "That's It", one story in the film is not more important than the other, all stories are basically on the same horizontal line. Although the film made some efforts, in fact, the whole process did not reflect too many changes in the characters' hearts. His relationship with the black brother was closer, but it was only the black brother who cried to him. The death of the child made He had an emotional breakdown, but in the end it was over, and he sent a brother out of the battlefield ahead of time, and he just stepped into the battlefield again in the end, and is this because war is poison? Not really.

The protagonist of this film is like a cowboy in a Western movie. He is an anarchist lone ranger. His daily task is to draw a gun (debomb). He has no feelings for the world. In his own words, he does not think about it. , After each duel, I stepped into the wilderness again, waiting for the next duel. The last shot of the film reminded me of the cowboy walking towards the sunset in the western movie. I really like the details of the supermarket cereal at the end. On the one hand, the spectacular row of cereal shelves contrasts with their poor life in Iraq. More importantly, the neatly arranged cereals express the hero and order in the most intuitive way. The world is out of tune, which is why he returned to the battlefield.

    Staff Sergeant William James: Yeah, well, it's not going to stop a mortar round from coming in through the roof, you know. Besides, I like the sunshine.
