So how good is this movie, please listen to Qingqing slowly!

1, ten minutes into the game, the hero dies?

This "All Quiet on the Western Front" can actually be shocked by just watching the opening ten minutes of the movie.

Because the opening ten minutes, the film tells the story of a soldier named Heinrich. Commander

because he saw his comrades around him die in front of him one by one, no matter which comrades in arms called for help or who shouted to him.

In the next second, his comrades will be killed by artillery fire.

, of course, the most surprising thing is that this timid Heinrich actually lived to the end.

When everyone thought that this Heinrich was the protagonist, and everyone thought that this Heinrich would become the narrator and witness of this movie.

Suddenly a gunshot rang out, and Heinrich's life suddenly disappeared!

At this time, the audience will realize: "So this Heinrich is not the male lead, he is just a supporting role!"

And the story of Heinrich is not over yet.

was washed in the laundry factory, and then the worn-out clothes were sent to the hands of ingenious textile women. After the

was patched up, a brand new uniform reappeared in the hands of the recruiting company.

On the other side, Paul, the real male protagonist of "All Quiet on the Western Front", appeared, a hot-blooded high school student, a young man who longed to be in Paris in a few weeks.

And when he took over the uniform and found that Heinrich's name was still written on the uniform, he stupidly asked the officer if he had sent the wrong clothes. How did the officer

respond when he saw it?

He directly removed Heinrich's name and threw it on the ground at will, and then said to Paul: "This should be someone else's ill-fitting clothes!"

Until this second, Heinrich's story is over.

And the male protagonist of this film Paul also officially appeared in Heinrich's clothes!

can be said to only watch the first ten minutes of "All Quiet on the Western Front" to see the gist of the film.

did not use a scene of the battlefield to reflect the cruelty of the war, and set the tone of the film without an emotional rendering.

As a movie, the first ten minutes of this movie have already confirmed the status of this blockbuster!

2, from hot-blooded youth to war machine!

If you want to understand this "All Quiet on the Western Front", you only need to understand Paul's emotional changes.

has just enlisted in the army, Paul's blood is a young man who is full of good yearning for war.

His dream is to kill a few more Frenchies, preferably in a few weeks, before making it to Paris. On the first day that

could be on the front line, Paul realized the cruelty of war.

Countless comrades-in-arms died beside him. The most terrifying thing was that his classmates who joined the army with him were killed by a bomb right in front of him.

When he picked up his classmate's glasses, Paul suddenly realized one thing: war is not beautiful, on the contrary it is quite cruel.

And at this moment, Paul becomes Heinrich, equally timid, equally afraid.

their best hope is that the war ends soon and they can go back to their homeTownship, they can start their lives again.

But when peace really comes, when the battlefield really returns to peace. The death of

's comrades did stimulate Paul again.

First, Jaden's death, his dream is to return to his hometown to be a village policeman after the war is over.

But he survived the battle, but he lost his leg.

can't be a village policeman without his legs.

And Jaden's last choice was to use the fork that Paul brought, and chose suicide in front of them.

can say that this scene really stimulated Paul.

And this is just the beginning. In the end, when Kate also died in front of Paul, Paul, who lost all his friends and all his comrades, was finally alone.

At this time, he has really turned into a war machine from a hot-blooded youth.

When the boss ordered him to march forward, he rushed towards the opponent's front line without hesitation.

has no expressions, no emotions.

can say that Paul's psychological change process is the essence of this "All Quiet on the Western Front". What is it about

that turns a hot-blooded, idealistic young man into a lifeless war machine that is bent on death?

is the damn war!

3, some classic details! Some details in "All Quiet on the Western Front" by

are really classic.

For example, the details of tying a scarf.

Paul watched his comrade die, so he picked up his comrade's scarf and tied it around his neck. The meaning of

is a kind of inheritance, a kind of commemoration.

And wait until the end Paul also died to save his comrades.

The new soldiers on the battlefield also tied the scarf around Paul's neck without hesitation and left the battlefield.

contact the opening again, Paul wears Heinrich's uniform.

actually understands what this detail means.

From Heinrich to Paul, to the new soldiers on the battlefield, in fact, they are all a kind of people, they are all victims, they are all innocent victims of war.

They all went to the battlefield with beautiful fantasies about war, and finally they were suddenly ashamed of war. The details of this scarf

are indeed worth pondering!

Of course, in addition to the scarf, there is another detail in the film, which made me particularly stunned.

That's the end of the movie, and the peace deal is about to take effect.

But because of the general's unwillingness to admit defeat, he insisted on winning a victory before the agreement was signed, and although the young soldiers were reluctant to fight again, they rushed to the battlefield under the pressure of military might.

can be right in the middle of their fight, when the French guy on the opposite side is dead.

suddenly announced on the broadcast that the peace agreement was in effect and the war was over.

In an instant, everyone stopped fighting, and even the soldiers on both sides were still packing their own identity plates in the same trench. The appearance of this detail of

really makes people doubt the necessity of this war.

Neither side wanted to fight, but as soon as the orders from the superiors on both sides arrived, the fighters on both sides raised their butcher knives towards the enemy like machines.

When the boss's order arrives, both parties don't even want to look at each other.

can say that this lens is really wonderful!

And in fact, in the history of the war on the Western Front, that was the case.

The two armies faced each other on the Western Front for several years. For a long time, they fought in trenches only a few hundred meters away. Over the distance of just a few hundred meters, the two sides sacrificed more than 1.5 million soldiers.

It can be said that this "All Quiet on the Western Front" really brought this history to life.

An unnecessary war, a war known as a meat grinder in later generations, is indeed cruel and unnecessary!

And that's why Qingqing thinks "All Quiet on the Western Front" is the best war movie of 2022, because this movieWhether it is from the war scene or from the connotation, it is worth digging deeply. A movie like

is really unreasonable if it doesn't win an award, what do you think?
