      Take a 1945 history with special effects in 1945

      As soon as I saw Cage, my heart shook, I hope I was wrong. And it turns out that I was right.

      I really can’t believe that this is a movie that was released in 2016. The special effects in it are not even 20% of the doomsday solitary ship...From the impact of the plane, to the warship going to sea, to the submarine torpedo launch, and finally the sinking encounter. Shark, these are all toys...

      Director, don't let me fix it? For brain supplement, I would rather read the text. At...

      Innocent people keep blaming themselves, and guilty people feel at ease

      Background introduction

      The Indianapolis, the flagship of the 5th Fleet, has experienced several major battles since Pearl Harbor, and won a total of 10 Battle Stars until the final years of the war; but it was two years before the end of the war. Zhou ended his glorious military career with a tragedy.

      Attacked and sunk

      After receiving repairs and modifications, it received a top-secret order to transport the components and nuclear fuel required for the assembly of...

      This movie is entirely for the U.S.-Japan alliance

      The account registered specifically to comment on this movie. This movie is the one that annoys me the most after watching it! It was taken entirely for the U.S.-Japan alliance, and I don’t know why the captain cried when it was about to end. ! It’s true that McVeigh is understandable for his dead comrades, but the Japanese devil said, "We have learned to forgive our old opponents, I hope that one day, we can forgive ourselves for what we did." I can’t understand it, typical thinking. Fool our...

      Don't be afraid of ten thousand be afraid of emergency

      The war movie I just watched, "Indianapolis" starring Cage, has poor special effects, but this movie "Hacksaw Ridge" is also adapted from real history, showing the cruelty of war, more than 1,000 numbers. People hung up for more than 300 when they sank, and then drifted in the ocean for 5 days hopelessly. Most people made a shark meal, bloody and cruel, and in the end only more than 300 died. The captain is still beautified in the film, acting as if the Indian was sunk as a tragic fate. But in...

      Look at this wonderful piece from a military point of view

      The shots are good, but there is not much shock. Why can't I send things by air? Not to mention something so important? Why not send an escort on the return journey? The weird thing is that when the communication is attacked, the communication is regarded as a deceptive signal for the Japanese army? Is there no identification of foe or foe? This is the most basic agreement, brother! Has the basic regular communication system for ship navigation been implemented? The discipline of soldiers is...

      2.5. Adapted from real events, the plot is cliché, and the special effects are sloppy, but the ending is still moved. First, the naval officers of the United States and Japan salute each other, regardless of previous suspicions. Second, due to the political situation, Charles took the blame alone and resisted all the guilt. It was not until half a century later that this "unjust case" was...

      The scene is shabby, the subject matter was ruined by a bad script and a bad director, and it was produced by a third-rate film company. Don't the six majors dare to touch this historical story?...

      The merits and demerits of history are sometimes not even clear to the parties involved, but it’s always good to take them out and show them...

      Captain McVeigh was 70 years old when he committed suicide. He was a rear admiral, which is sighing. The voyage was of no avail. The progress of the movie is roughly based on the course of historical events, and there are deviations in details (for example, the ship is heading to Wright Island after a new crew from Guam, the movie seems to show that it is heading directly to Wright Island after being "unloaded" from Tinian Island), but it is stuffed The past individual stories, such as the...

    Movie plot

    This film is adapted from a real event. Nicholas Cage plays Captain Charles Butler McEvoy. His ship was hit by a torpedo in the South Pacific in July 1945 and carried the first atomic bomb on board   . Approximately 300 of the 1,196 crew members who boarded the ship died with the ship, and the rest faced sun exposure, dehydration, salt water erosion and shark attacks while waiting for rescue. Only 317 sailors were rescued, McAvoy was...
