So what can you do as an individual?
21 January 2004
It's another one of those war movies. One of what you say? One of those: Saving Private Ryan, Prisoner of the mountains, Battle of Algiers, and Apocalypses now redux. I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I have watched too many anti-war movies. What's the point of all these conflicts? They give good materials for other people to write and shoot films. And they give good materials to have nice conversations with your friends over beers and wines. I hate men. I hate human beings. Can we ever wash blood on our hands? I hate this movie and movies like this. And yet.my soul wouldn't stop breathing in the stench. It's an interesting war flick. I found it mostly satisfying except the repeated appearance of Bryan Adams. Yes, I understand his scenes. Yes, it does make the movie a bit more star-power. However, the messages have been conveyed clearly without dragging him in every so often. I recommend this movie if you wanna bath in messages of pointlessness of war and blah. What can we do to stop the vicious cycle of human tragedy and stupidity? Is there a hope?
