Depp's quick glance

The war has destroyed one soul after another, annihilated humanity, and the pain left behind is indelible. Ordinary people are so innocent, their family members were shot and killed in front of their eyes, their former homes were torched, and the bodies of young girls were ruthlessly abused, all of which may no longer be able to be sucked in with tears. Are the soldiers fighting the complete persecutors? The pain of war will always be left in their hearts, suffering day and night. Just like the Bahn in the film, he is no longer human, he can still survive after being hit 7 times, he cannot be evaluated as a normal person physically and psychologically, so he finally mutilates his compatriots and kills endlessly Liao, he was the worst victim of the war. As for the male protagonist, just like the soldier King said: "All you can do is to go out alive and live a good life."
Now the phrase "world peace" is not so empty when I think of it.

    The good thing about this film is that it is honest enough and deep enough. It does not cover up certain behaviors in the war. It also shows the various mentalities of ordinary soldiers very true.

    "It's just because we can't face ourselves truly-the real enemy comes from the ugliness inside us." This is not a good story, but a real history.

Platoon quotes

  • Big Harold: I don't know brothers, but I'm hurting real bad inside.

  • Sgt. Barnes: [to Lt. Wolfe after giving wrong target grid for mortar-fire] You ignorant asshole! What the fuck coordinates you giving? You wasted a lot of people up there with your fucked-up fire mission! You know that? You know that? Ah, shit!
