Take a look if you are patient

After reading the introduction, I thought it should be very good. Later, I found out that the length of the film is 121 minutes. Generally speaking, when I watch a film with a length of more than 100 minutes, I will feel a little confused.

For the first 60 minutes, the plot was really slow and slow. I feel that there is no so-called climax part of the whole film. I can only say that the last 30 minutes of the film will make you feel a little more enjoyable to watch.

As for the theme of the film, I have no interest in thinking about the impact of war on people or how cruel the war is.

The ending song is good.
