Stalingrad - ok, reluctant Russian film

Theme: Anti-war, not anti-German. The movie is a big production, the whole scene is very difficult to burn the ashes, and I don't like the plot very much. If the plot was changed to a German wife who was glamorous and took refuge in the same building with Sasha at the end, the effect would be contrasted and it should be better. The director wants to talk about the cruelty of many wars, but not in detail. The Russian prostitute was splashed with water, and it was taken away in one stroke, an understatement. Because of the theme, the cruelty of the German colonel is not described too much: a section on burning mother and daughter; a section on cleaning up, written very lightly. The overall soundtrack is average. The details are mediocre, except for the part where Sasha and the bald head are sleeping upstairs, the door frame has the child's height marking line, and the broken vase. It's a good birthday, and I like this part in contrast to the depositary theme of war. . . It doesn't make sense for the movie to write about Sasha's neighbors and bury them, but it doesn't make sense for Sasha to fetch water. Russian prostitutes put down their headscarves to kiss the Germans, expressing their psychology through actions, not bad. In the part where Sasha looked at the stars in the back, the two planes hanging on the hole in the broken wall were really annoying. Wouldn't a broken wall reflect the war more. The glass was not broken enough, and there were still many windows with the glass intact.
Key point: At the beginning, the burning Russian soldiers rushed towards the Germans. I can only say that the stunts are awesome. So many people were on fire. How did they bring so many actors to put out the fire at the same time? Awesome! But, director, you gave me a strong taste as soon as you came up, and then you described delicate love. If you want to spit out all the things in your mind, the effect will not work. . . . I can barely give you 3 stars because you are a Russian movie.

    The previous trailer was too handsome, and the movie was like a two-hour trailer, the narrative rhythm was chaotic and boring, the director must have watched a few Hollywood blockbusters playing in slow motion, and thought he had learned it, but he stole it. That bit of skill is only suitable for making a trailer. No tragic war, only love, is it because the Russian nation is too romantic? ★★

    I want to see the big from the small, but there are no bright spots, the level is average, and the special effects are not based on a solid plot foundation. There are a lot of people discussing the boring question of who the child is. The war is really ruthless, there is a lot of beautification here.
