"The Messenger" exposes the misfortune brought about by the war, but also contains a patriotic sentiment. The film selected the most heartbreaking side of the war to show the audience. The film creates a strong contrast between the huge character gap between a young and energetic youth and an experienced commander. Although most of the film revolves around their amateur lives, the scenes of the two soldiers working together are touching.
In order to prevent the film from being too tragic, the director and screenwriter injected a lot of humor into the film. The occasional jokes of the character are a great tool to make up for the sadness of the film, and over time, the audience can also appreciate the fragility of this seemingly hard-hearted character. After all, in the war, no one is spared, and no one will be a winner
