Men of Honor, the legend of men

In my case, if you write a film review, you have to watch the movie at least twice. The first time I watched the plot, I understood the outline of the story, and then after many days, the details were almost forgotten, and only one frame was left. At the same time, the feeling of the movie would not be forgotten. Is it sad, bright, tragic or full of pride, even if the plot cannot be remembered, the taste and feeling of the movie are still there. However, I can’t write with this feeling. The second time I saw the details that were carefully designed by the director and screenwriter, I slowly wrote those feelings into the article. If the film conveys people’s feelings If it is a soul, the details are hair and flesh and blood. The soul needs the support of the entity, and the entity also needs the soul to not be a walking dead.

Men of honor, men who are born only for glory. In that turbulent era, or at any time, there was a cruel rule of elimination of winners and losers—but the discrimination against blacks at the time made this rule more cruel—you don’t need to live. No matter how humble, he plays the role that a cow should do in an endless field, no longer need to be discriminated against, no longer let his dignity go wherever he is trampled underfoot, wanting to get ahead, not wanting to live in obscurity Death, not even a trace of voice is left to the world. No, there are always people who live for glory. They are unwilling to live a mediocre life and passively accept the destiny of their talents. They were born to hold the power of the chaotic world. Even if they face the seemingly bottomless cliff, they still insist on holding it. The handle, even holding the blade and rushing forward.

In fact, Carl did not have the courage and ingenuity to control troubled times. The hero he yearned for was just the highest imaginable hero limited by his own knowledge. Such a stubborn desire to do everything to become a hero who cannot be called a hero in the eyes of most soldiers and officers, such courage and determination is truly commendable. Throughout the whole film, this can be called "stupid" effort, the reason why he didn't make people laugh, it was because he dared to think, had a goal, and put it into practice. There are many people who dare to think about in this world, but when they really put it into practice, they are always hindered by various reasons, whether it is their own or the outside world. Walkers should always be respected. Those of us who think we are smart and self-preserving, at some point, stop dull at one point, facing the fear of life, we are afraid of our hands and feet like walking on thin ice. It's like many people spend their entire lives looking into the distance, but they don't know that if they don't march towards the distance, the distance will always be the distance.

I remember that there is a classic line in a movie called: "If a person lives according to his heart, he will either become a madman or become a legend." What Carl followed was established by all the hardships in his childhood. Faith. Faith always has a strange power. It is like a seed that takes root and sprouts in people’s hearts. In Carl’s heart, becoming a naval diver is probably the highest pursuit he can achieve. In his heart, the one named Faith The seeds are watered by water called "discrimination" and "tribulation", catalyzed by the love and expectations of their parents, and eventually become a thriving tree under his own hard work. The so-called brave are fearless, and those who walk have no boundaries. Courageous people will not be afraid of a road full of thorns, and those who really want to walk on the road have no obstacles to stop them. No matter the obstacle is the end of the world or the corner, the brave walker can always ride the wind and waves and set sail.

Let's talk about other characters. General Cindy did not accept the sorrow of his hero's old man, and the old general who was locked up on the heights, perhaps being forgotten, was a shame even more painful to him than death. He or they are just one or two of thousands of proud heroes. Heroes have the pride of heroes. Heroes do not die on a bed. The true method of death is a hero’s death. It is best to die by exhaustion of all human resources. Before death, you can scream "I am not ashamed of my life!" Such a legendary life is enough A strong and colorful stroke left in the history of youth.

But the times are different. This era does not accept such legendary heroes. What the audience needs to see is the heroes of ordinary people who have grown up step by step from small people. The myth of the world is only suitable for storytelling and novels. The struggle of ordinary people is easier to empathize and achieve the desired effect of inspirational films.

So in fact, the current inspirational films are all the same. The directors understand the audience's psychology and always shoot small people and small angles, portraying a seemingly ordinary life that has always been exaggerated by artistic processing. But movies are movies after all, and more people in life are probably just unfortunate people who have worked hard for a long time without those luck and opportunities. They may have firm confidence and clear goals, but they happen to have not met a leader who can tolerate them and is willing to give him the opportunity to treat their friends and lovers who are friendly to them so that they will not despair. In the quagmire of life, forever He was the only one struggling, and then, as the previous sentence said, he lived according to his own heart, and then became a lunatic.

So, after all, things like movies are still too far away from life. Even if he is adapted from real people, it is just a coincidence of thousands of factors.

But saying this may be a bit unfair to those who have really struggled. Heroes are just those who wander through the sloppy waters of life. They may become heroes only because they follow their inner desires and open the door to face the silence. When the long road in the wilderness is raining and dark as night, you can still step out without looking back.

Speaking of which I found out the freshman writing in order to turn over the paper, it can be seen that I still maintained the level of literature and art at that time.

Although I don’t remember the content of the movie at all, I clearly remember that this is a film review required by the aesthetics course of the first semester of the freshman year; I clearly remember writing this article to the point where I finally rushed to write enough words before the New Year’s holiday. ; I clearly remember that the closed-book essay film review of this public elective course broke down, and then the teacher gave me a score of 59...peat, see you in debt!

    The acting is outstanding and the tone is passionate and inspirational. The plot is more procrastinated. Overall, it is like the Sialon in the movie. It is obviously beautiful, but in this film, it is ugly and beautiful. It can neither make people feel bright, nor can it shine in every scene. . . Three and a half.

Men of Honor quotes

  • Mac Brashear: You get in there and fight, Carl. Don't take promises. Bust their rules if you have to. And when it gets hard, and it will, don't quit on me, ever.

  • Billy Sunday: A Chief Petty Officer shall not drink. However, if he should drink he shall not get drunk. If he should get drunk, he shall not stagger. And if he should stagger, he shall not fall. And if he should fall, he will fall in such a manner as to cover up his rank so that passerbyers will think he is an officer.
