8.2 points. Because I was so busy, I could only watch the movie during the ten minutes of lunch, so I actually watched this movie for more than two weeks... But I finally finished it! Although I don't really want to discuss ideological issues, after watching "Chernobyl" and "Barrier on the City", I still feel that there is a certain degree of smear... But it's just a personal statement.

Originally, I was looking at Jude Law's face, but it turned out that the heroine is more beautiful hahaha. The rhythm of the story is moderate, and the most exciting part is concentrated in the last 20 minutes. Danilov's image really stood up in the last 20 minutes (but later I found out that what I watched on Tencent seemed to be the abridged version... No wonder some of the transitions are very blunt. And although Danilov started to frame Vasily out of jealousy before this, the consequences of this scene were not filmed at all, and they were probably deleted. It really affects the integrity of the story. ah), lied to the little hero's mother that the little hero betrayed the plot. The plot was well designed, and the mother was relieved for the child. The note is the only place in the whole film that makes me cry. Therefore, although it has been deleted and there are some ideological problems, the characterization is indeed very delicate.

The service and transformation of the battlefield is not very good. On the one hand, I am not professional. On the other hand, maybe the war movies I have watched have done a good job in this part, so it is not very good in comparison. All in all, it's still pretty good.

Enemy at the Gates quotes

  • Vassili Zaitsev: On this day, September 20th 1942, a young shepherd boy from the Urals arrived in the city of Stalingrad on the banks of the Volga. His name is Vassilij Zaitzev. Like thousands before him he came to answer comrade Stalin's call. Armed only with a rifle, he quickly made the fascist invader realise that from now on he would be punished for every step he took in the motherland, that from here on the only way was back.

  • Vassili Zaitsev: Shouldn't we try and make the point that I'm not the only one fighting?

    Commisar Danilov: That's an excellent idea. We can take it even further though. Your battle for the production of coal is as worthy as mine. There's no 'k' in coal. Just one 'l'. Tell me if I'm going too fast.

    Vassili Zaitsev: No, you're not going too fast. Is there any other improvements?

    Mother Filipov: Why don't you get some rest? These letters can wait until tomorrow.

    Vassili Zaitsev: We should carry on. We're not tired. Thank you, Mrs. Filipov. These people took the trouble to write to us. Tomorrow we might not be around to write back.
