recommends to everyone today is "The Defender" released in 2017. Because the volume of the film is too small, the box office on the first day was only 790,000, and the total box office was only 10,201,800. Even so, it is still a good film.
"The Defenders" is based on the real historical events of the Chinese Army General Yao Ziqing defending Baoshan County during the second Sino-Japanese decisive battle in Songhu, leading his 600 soldiers and the Japanese elite to fight for seven days and nights until all the heroic martyrdom. The whole film of
is full of tragic and shocking, and the war scenes are tragic and bloody, quite real! Especially after the Japanese army broke the city, Yao Ziqing led the only 24 people to deal with the Japanese army in street battles. The scenes were handled very well, which made people feel like they were on the scene. What they saw was thrilling and nervous.
Many netizens also said that this movie is a counter-current of domestic anti-Japanese movies in recent years for two reasons.
First, it’s rare to see the Kuomintang army do the protagonist in this film. In the anti-Japanese war dramas we have seen in the past, either the KMT and the Communist Party cooperated to fight against Japan, or the former acted as a negative role against the latter. This is naturally a departure from the mainstream ideology, and this is one of them.
The second is the restoration of human nature. In this movie, there are no shredders, no bombs, and no turning bullets. In this movie, instead, we can see soldiers peeing their pants scared by shells, soldiers with amulets in their arms, and old men. Thinking about molesting the female doctor's company commander.
When people were accustomed to using the "primary school text" thinking to look at the anti-Japanese war, they were used to Japanese soldiers who had no IQ, and were used to the fixed pattern of certain battles. The film "The Defender" subverted people's habitual thinking in the war of war. The movie
shows us how fragile and vulnerable people are in the face of war; seeing people’s fear of death and war is in sharp contrast with the anti-Japanese dramas in the past. This is a basic respect for the audience and history. And scrutiny.
