I have always disliked the World War II movies made by Japan, and I was a little bit conflicted. When I saw Japan filming the Tokyo Air Raid and Iwo Jima, I wondered in my heart why they only made movies about the US attacking Japan, not Japan's invasion of China, or Japan's sneak attack on Pearl...

Maybe it's because I've watched too many war movies, maybe it's because the movie depicts the Japanese army in World War II as a "normal" person instead of a devil, which seems a little uncomfortable!

If you don't know the history of World War II, you can't tell which side is the righteous side and...

I've been very interested in WWII-themed stuff lately. Mainly because I watched "Eichmann in Jerusalem A Report on the Banality of Evil", and then watched more WWII-themed movies one after another.

This film is really reflective, a rare good film.

Novel and unusual, the American director shot the battle of Iwo Jima from the perspective of Japanese soldiers, which is not the main theme of the film that reflects the bravery of American soldiers in the past. As a former hostile country, it is very commendable to be able to affirm the excellent...

1. Dual perspective comparison. The banner with the father's generation is a set of stories from two perspectives, which is quite interesting and makes people want to compare. In contrast, the banner of the fathers does have a deeper subject matter, a wider range of social issues involved, a...

I have to say that the Japanese in "Letter from Iwo Jima" are the most comfortable Japanese images I have ever seen. They are not real soldiers, but ordinary bakers, clothing store owners, policemen, etc. They are the basic units of society. They should have an ordinary life of ordinary people,...

I probably wouldn't have much to say if I just watched this movie as a regular audience. Perhaps because I am a Chinese, it is impossible not to have any national sentiment, which makes us think this film is thought-provoking. I don't want to say whether this movie is good or bad, because...

This is a war movie from the perspective of the Japanese army.

From the very beginning, the Japanese army was not so much a line of defense on Iwo Jima to stop the American army from attacking the Japanese mainland on Iwo Jima. Rather, it was a group of soldiers trapped on Iwo Jima. They had nowhere...

Hanako, we have been digging, we have been digging all day, this will be the hole in which we will die after the war, are we digging our own grave? "-"Letter from Iwo Jima" 01 "The Banner of the Fathers", set in the background of the Battle of Iwo Jima, was criticized after its release, and its...

Most of the films about World War II in the past have always portrayed Japan as an aggressor. But Uncle Dongmu changed his angle this time, showing the Japanese army as the defeated side. To be precise, it is to show a defensive battle that is sure to be defeated.

When the Pacific War was drawing to...
