      General level of ability is limited

      I heard a story when I was young. The head of a theatre company. Unspoken rules a newly assigned beautiful young actor promised to give her the number one girl.

      A more worthy war movie than "Wolf Warrior" is a forgotten history.

      Speaking of Nanjing, there should be no Chinese who do not know about the Nanjing Massacre.

      Speaking of Chongqing, few people know about the Chongqing bombing .

      Eighty years ago, as the wartime capital of the Nationalist government, Chongqing was bombed by the Japanese invaders for 6 years and 10 months during the Anti-Japanese War.

      Chongqing will not die, China will not die!

      First of all, I think this film should be released in China, and the value of the whole film should not be denied because of the mistakes of individual artists. The film itself tells the story of Japan's six-year and ten-month bombing of the temporary capital of Chongqing during World War II. During this period, the Chinese people are experiencing life and death every day, not knowing which disaster or tomorrow will come first. Even in this environment, the Chinese people fought the war to...

      Tear and return, the history cannot be forgotten

      Just swiped on Weibo~ I was pleasantly surprised to find that this movie was finally released. Although it is in North America, the resources have already flowed out~ It is destined that the story behind it will be more exciting than the plot, money laundering, fraud, tax evasion, and all kinds of intrigues. Needless to say in detail~ However, people now know how many Chongqing bombers were bombed. This three-dimensional fashion capital, which is widely sought after by travelers, was...

      There is nothing wrong with the basic facts of the film. The spray point of the military fans is wrong

      In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the main force of the National Army Air Force was Hawke III (Modified version of Curtis BF2C-1). The advantage of the biplane is that the horizontal turning radius is small, the operation is easier, the lift is large and it is not easy to stall; it can also be used as a ground attack aircraft. However, the top speed of the monoplane is much higher, and it is more suitable for vertical maneuvering and one-hit disengagement. At that time, there was...

    Evaluation action

    The structure of the film is too chaotic, without focus, and the plot is not logically self-consistent, leaving the audience at a loss. The film has three narrative clues, one is the anti-Japanese line of the Air Force led by an instructor of the US Air Force played by Walter Bruce Willis, one is the narrative line of fighting wits and bravery with Japanese spies played by Liu Ye, and one is played by Wei Fan. The civil anti-Japanese...
