"Each of us must be like a nail, nailing it to our own position"

I was attracted by this sentence in the trailer. When this sentence As soon as the heart-warming lines appeared, I knew that this war blockbuster was destined to become the best-selling movie in theaters this year.

It finally made its debut -

Heroes Attack" (below (referred to as "Volunteer Army 1") was released, with a score of 7.3 on Douban, making it the most popular movie of its time.

This story of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea has moved many viewers. The film ended with the audience still wanting more.

After a year, everyone has finally waited for "Volunteers 2".

After watching the trailer, I dare to say that this is another movie that rewrites the ceiling of domestic war movies.

Based on real battles, the trailer is attractive

"Volunteer Army 2" tells the story from the third battle to the fifth battle in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the fierce battle - the Cheorwon Blockade.

In 1951, at the end of the Fifth Battle of the Korean War, the 63rd Army was ordered to station in Cheorwon battlefield to establish a stable defense line for the volunteers who retreated to the 38th Line.

But the 63rd Army has had almost no rest since entering North Korea, and it has just ended a month-long operation. In this state, they have to face the four divisions of the " United Nations Army ".

In the case of huge disparity in military power, how did the volunteers win this pinnacle battle with their flesh and blood?

This is also the biggest highlight of "Volunteers 2".

Zhu Yu comes first, let alone transcendence, but how can "Volunteer Army 2" live up to this subject matter that makes Chinese people cry just thinking about it?

Chen Kaige only used one trick - truth.

This kind of truth is reflected in the spirit.

On the battlefield, Li Xiang (played by Zhu Yilong), the battalion instructor, stood firm and would not retreat even a step.

In order to create better weapons for New China, Wu Benzheng (played by Zhu Yawen), a returning military expert, entered the battlefield under the protection of Zhang Xiaoheng (played by Ou Hao) to provide weapons support.

Together with all the soldiers of the 63rd Army, they built an unbreakable "Iron Great Wall" on the Cheorwon battlefield.

Their clothes were blown into strips, and their bodies were covered with blood stains and shrapnel wounds.

But they were fearless and attacked the enemy firmly and fearlessly. Under the baptism of artillery fire, they firmly guarded the spirit of the volunteers and the future of the motherland. The truth of

is reflected in the picture.

Chen Kaige’s camera movements bring the audience to the war-torn battlefield with a highly immersive atmosphere.

The enemy was like a wolf and a tiger, and artillery fire came at the 63rd Army like a tide. The feeling of oppression on the battlefield suddenly hit our faces.

In the dark night, the soldiers advanced towards the enemy, resisting the enemy's attack with flesh and blood, and their bodies exploded directly in the air, giving people the most intuitive sense of tragedy.

When the magnificent scenes of war are intertwined with the audience's immersion, every frame stirs up the audience's visual nerves.

Even though we already know the outcome of the war, we can still be involuntarily immersed in the emotional tension caused by the war. The thrilling and blood-spraying feeling makes people unable to calm down for a long time.

html The 21 minutes and 24 seconds of the trailer are so moving, it’s hard to imagine how touching the feature film will be.

Gathering of big names, the cast is luxurious

If you want to shoot war, you can't just shoot the battlefield, the most important thing is to shoot the people.

Even though the narrative of "Volunteers 1" is controversial, there is no doubt about Chen Kaige's vision in casting. Zhang Songwen, Zhang Ziyi, Wang Xiao and other actors have left famous acting scenes in the film.

The same is true for "Volunteers 2". The cast is still luxurious. These are the actors I am most looking forward to.

ranked first, Wu Jing.

No one is more suitable for war dramas than Wu Jing. His tough guy image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. When he plays a soldier, it doesn't feel like he is acting, but he is the character himself.

In the early years, Wu Jing once caused a craze for watching military-themed films with "Wolf Warrior". Later, he portrayed the calm and indomitable Wu Qianli in "Changjin Lake", which left a deep impression on people.

In the new film, Wu Jing plays Fu Chongbi. In the trailer, he looks back and his bloody spirit of sticking to the battlefield to the death is needless to say. He is the right person to play this role.

ranked second, Zhu Yilong .

Compared with appearing as an "Easter Egg Guest" in the previous film, the story of "Volunteers 2" unfolds with Li Xiang, played by Zhu Yilong.

As a golden rooster and a hundred flowers, Zhu Yilong’s acting skills are enough to support the entire role.

There is a scene in the trailer where he encourages the soldiers. Every word he speaks is sonorous and powerful. From the initial encouragement to the natural excitement, the emotions gradually increase and ignite.

I believe Zhu Yilong’s performance in the feature film will be equally exciting.

The third place is Xin Baiqing.

As early as in "Volunteers 1", the audience knew how stable Xin Baiqing's acting skills were. His character Li Moyin exuded an elegant temperament in every gesture.

In "Volunteers 2", Xin Baiqing's acting skills are also outstanding.

A look in the trailer is full of worry and unbearability, and his lips and eyelids are trembling. It is not difficult to guess that something happened to his comrade fighting side by side. At this moment, the cruelty of war is fully demonstrated.

I hope that in the feature film, Xin Baiqing will once again surprise the audience with his acting skills.

ranked fourth, Zhang Zifeng .

The slightly green translator assistant in the previous film has grown into a heroine.

In the trailer of "Volunteer Army 2", Li Xiao, played by Zhang Zifeng, warned the United Nations troops on behalf of the Volunteer Army. His words were sonorous and powerful, his tone was neither humble nor overbearing, and the firmness emanating from his eyes suddenly touched my heart.

Female warriors should be like this. It can be seen that what the director wants is the growth and transformation of the character, and to show the impact of war on an ordinary person from an individual perspective. Zhang Zifeng held up the play.

In addition to the actors mentioned, "Volunteers 2" also has the participation of many powerful actors such as Guo Tao, Ou Hao, Zhu Yawen, Wang Yang, Wang Yanhui, Xiao Yang, etc. It is another acting feast.

Conclusion:

Looking back at the domestic movies in the past few years, war blockbusters have become a box office base.

Films such as "Operation Red Sea", "Eight Hundred", "Changjin Lake" and "Water Gate Bridge" have topped the annual box office list.

In addition to the subject matter that is easier to impress the audience, what is more important is the feelings of family and country behind the film and the spirit of the volunteer soldiers. Those are the real essence of war movies.

The performances of all the actors in "Volunteers 2" gave this war sufficient character arcs, which is also the basis for the whole story to be convincing.

However, if it wants to stabilize the box office and reputation, it depends on whether it can clearly explain the ins and outs of this battle and the true meaning of this war.

I hope "Volunteers 2" will not disappoint the audience.
