Talk about the political metaphor in it

Watching the film on an Air China flight to Dubai has an absurd sense of conflict. A few highlights:

1. The meeting occupies a large part of the film. Any use of the Self-Defense Forces after Godzilla goes ashore and starts to frantically destroy it will be reported step by step and then the Prime Minister will decide. After using the military force, he also said with emotion that this was the first time the Self-Defense Forces were dispatched after World War II. On the one hand, it satirizes the redundant and inefficient administrative system, on the other hand, it is not difficult for the post-war system, and it is dissatisfied with the difficulty and complexity of Japan's use of the army. A false landing of Godzilla aroused the people's demand for national military power, paving the way for the abolition of peace in the future.

2. Views on America. After the failure of the first attack by the Self-Defense Forces, the US penetrating bomb came on stage, which severely damaged Godzilla, but failed to destroy Godzilla. Godzilla was eventually killed by blood clotting. It implies that the Japan-US security agreement is unreliable, and the ultimate security still needs to rely on Japan itself. Especially in the end, the United States agreed with the United Nations to use the hydrogen bomb, but it did not give enough time to evacuate. The film said, is Japan going to be attacked by nuclear weapons for the third time, expressing that it is also a victim of World War II.

3. In the countdown before the use of the nuclear bomb, not enough coagulants were prepared, and the attack time was delayed by contacting France, but China and Russia did not agree. It is pointed out that China and Russia are enemies of Japan, while countries in continental Europe, France, are friends of Japan.

A Japanese patriotic educational film.

    The old is refurbished, the new is the old. The leather case is replaced by CG, but the graininess and roughness of the leather case are deliberately made. The advancement of technology has brought wide scenes and disaster scenes that are difficult to see in traditional special photography, but it still uses the golden age of the 1960s and 1970s. The sound effects of explosions and broken buildings, Anno Hideaki knows how to retain the soul of the special camera, and also knows how to innovate. He completed the evolution of this ancient type with an anti-special camera, and the responsibility of inheritance is up to him. Mobile "nuclear reactors" roaming Japan, the disintegration of the old order, the establishment of a new world, a wonderful close to the historical and contemporary political fables, and we found that the Salvation Army led by Hasegawa Hiroshi, led by Tsukamoto Shinya, Takahashi Composed of a group of geeks with otaku attributes, such as Yisheng and Ichikawa, Anno's spiritual beliefs are still so romantic and empathetic.
