Masterpiece of the time

Like Kurosawa Akira's "Seven Samurai", it is considered a classic because it was filmed in 1986. Oliver Stone has tried his best at the time to restore the Vietnam War to its truest and most tragic level. There are many stalks in it that are now unusable, such as white people bullying black people, but black fighters have basically been dwarfed. Escape to escape, retired, and self-injured. In fact, this may be very real, because the treatment of black people in their home country was really very poor at the time, and there is really no need for people to work hard for you white dogs. But in the context of political correctness, it will definitely not work. Recently, Spike Lee's "Bloodthirsty Five" is also the opposite of this movie.

The film as a whole revolves around the story of the killing of Ilya and Barnes. These two characters are like the final confession of the film, which is the pros and cons of the male protagonist. On the one hand, the hero is magnificent, positive, and heroic. While being tortured by the war, it was dark and distorted. Even the face is full of scars, externalized to express meaning. It's really great just for the sake of it. The 1986 movie was made so profound and complete. How many movies can do it today? In the end, the male protagonist picked up the AK to kill the dark side. The motive was reasonable and the details were in place.

The whole film restores the essence of the Vietnam War. The humid and sultry feeling of the rainforest and the harsh environment of various snakes, insects, mice and ants are all in place. There are also those enemies of the Viet Cong who are invisible in the rain forest. It can be said that the portrayal is as good as one-third of the wood. Fighting in the rain forest is like this. As soon as you can see a shadow, you will shoot. There is also William Daphne's kneeling posture on the cover of the film history, which is worth it.

    Sgt. Barnes: O'Neill, get me that centipede.
