If you don't take this movie seriously with a determined attitude, you will be annoyed to death by the long one-hour plot ahead. Finally, hunting deer into the mountains entered the theme of the movie. They are full of fighting spirit, and they go to the front line as the supreme honor...
In fact, the perfection of this movie is in the middle and the second half. After watching the movie, maybe you will think deeply about what the real intention of this movie is. You know what this movie means to those who have experienced the war. Just like the unfinished "Killing Field", like many war movies, what is presented to us is not the force of war, but the cruelty of war and the harm left to people after the war. This kind of harm is not All people can afford it.
The battle of the three people, they were reborn with tenacity, but it did not end. Some memories left in the war could not be balanced in a peaceful life. The cruelty of the war hurts the innocent like the beginning of the war, and the tragic ending of the innocent Vietnamese women and children hiding in the underground shelter. Life is like a straw, without any value, so the director used a very detailed and thoughtful way to describe the game that the three people played when they were captured – Russian roulette.
In the face of death, Steve lost his mind and lost his legs, Nick left a sequela in the chaos and could not redeem himself, and Mike was unusually brave and calm, but he couldn't pick up a gun to shoot a deer after returning to his hometown. The deer hunter was hunted, sat on the ground for a long time to calm down, and angrily threw it far away with the gun carried by his partner... Ordinary people can't stand the brutality and pain of war, even if they are really free from death, but The inner wounds cannot be healed.
It was a successful film that earned the credit it deserved and created the heroic image of Robert De Niro. Although we rarely see Robert De Niro in a positive role on screen, perhaps it was 1994's The Godfather that impressed. And the recent "Pirates of Fire" let us see his warmth again. In fact, this film presents the heroism and pride of our ordinary people, and the pride and charm of Americans.
At the end of the film, suppressing the grief for the loss of a companion, singing "God Bless America" echoed in everyone's mind for a long time!
