Under the tight rhythm, it can express the contradictions of many positions thoroughly. It's a good film.

There are many contradictions in this movie, and a good movie is able to generate a lot of discussion

1 The men and women who launch missiles and other people are the biggest contradiction. In a broad sense, it can be seen as the contradiction between war and death, and the collision is fierce; but from a military point of view, in a narrow sense, it is not compassionate to take control of the soldiers, and the sacrificed comrades and front-line investigators are ignored. This is also the contradiction among the soldiers

1 The contradiction and collision of different functions between politicians, especially the foreign secretary who began to welcome the Americans, and later required him to make decisions when he really pushed the blame, this is quite ironic.

2 The contradiction between the soldiers at the bottom, the front-line soldiers, including the heroine, want to avenge their comrades, while the soldiers behind the scenes mostly consider their jobs

The three contradictions finally focused on the girl. The director's magic trick was that the girl picked up the naan and continued to sell it. There are elements of social poverty and human greed in it, and finally formed a discussion with many opinions.

The point is that what everyone is discussing from the movie is exactly what human beings need to solve at present. I personally think this is the most valuable part of this movie.

    The rhythm is tight, and it was originally a moral discussion with no absolute answer, but the slow motion at the end that highlights the death of the little girl and the fun makes the author's position completely moral and hypocritical.

    Chicken soup and paradigms like high school textbooks don't look like dark British films at all. Weaknesses that can be imagined: important operations are operated by skilled hands, military operations involve political and diplomatic activities, and there are detailed plans for military operations. Frontline commanders are solely responsible for the scene of military operations, and should not be closely monitored and dictated by high-level bureaucrats on the other side of the world.
