China’s Top Ten Must-See War Movies

My personal views on China's top ten must-see war films are as follows:

1. "The Wind"

Perfect narrative rhythm! All the actors have excellent acting skills, and I believe this is just the epitome of the underground people's heroes, and I pay tribute to them. The torture of acupuncture makes people shudder. The actors' superb acting skills make each character more three-dimensional, which is rare for a movie with the main theme. The gladiatorial fight in the secret room amplifies the suspense.

2. "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"

The narrative of the movie is quite profound and thought-provoking. In Nanjing at that time, too many people sacrificed their lives. How to describe this? As for the heavy history and the hatred of the country and the family, from the moment when the students rescued the merchant girls, from the merchant girl who sacrificed her life to save the students and went to the Japanese base, from the merchant girl who did not know the hatred of the country's subjugation, from the song "Qinhuai River" that she sang The song and the tragic atmosphere arise spontaneously. Living in such an era is the misfortune of the people, the misfortune of history, and the tragedy of the nation. For the sake of a better next generation, the brilliance of humanity also shines sporadicly.

3. "Operation Red Sea"

A war movie released during the Spring Festival. The blood in several plots made me a little bit unbearable to watch it. It can only win the annual box office crown. It can be real quality. The script was carefully thought out, and the battles were completely adapted to local conditions, without improvising for the sake of fighting; the praise of the military spirit was reflected by the bravery, devotion to duty, and compassion on the front line; a great country uses powerful weapons with a small but powerful force, just like the masters in martial arts novels. The Qi attack shocked everyone. They are all the main themes of the future. I think it's the most shocking movie I've ever seen in China. It's very beautiful!

4. "Assembly"

War movies in my impression are always the same, but it gives the war more reality and humanity, allowing future generations to see it more clearly. The hardships of that era. Whether it is the sacrifice of the 47 soldiers or the rally call that was not blown, it is enough to make us lament the horror of war! It's a rare red movie that looks comfortable. It's not sensational for the sake of sensation, or sentiment for the sake of emotion.

5. "Sniper"

After watching "Sniper", the biggest feeling is restraint. It restrained the grand narrative structure of the war theme, restrained the ambition of multi-line group portraits, and restrained the impulse to sensationalize. Instead, focus on a sniper battle, eliminating the complex and concise, clean and neat. There is no deliberate belittling or dwarfing of the opponent. There is no choice in war, but respect can be mutual.

6. "Above the Cliff"

The subject matter is very good, and it allows us to understand again that victory is hard-won. The whole plot feels very attractive to me, and its The pace is relatively fast. Even though the whole movie gives people a lazy feeling, what shocked me the most was its reversal. I really didn't expect that Yu Hewei's character and Zhang Yi and the others were together. Unfortunately, in the end it was Several people have been sacrificed. I really hope not to be biased against a movie because of one person. Good works can really be recommended to more people.

7. "Wuwen Xidong"

The soundtrack is too full, which is a shortcoming. But the whole movie moved me unexpectedly and exceeded my expectations. I thought that there would be many restrictions on thesis composition, but I saw more of Tsinghua’s responsibility as an important weapon of the country for a century. Similar to Cloud Atlas, different time and space are secretly connected, and there is also a gospel that runs throughout, inspiring emotions. Although it is a propositional composition, the calm literary demeanor, the epic atmosphere, and the smooth texture of light and shadow are very comfortable. More movies like this should be made, it is meaningful.

8. "Eight Hundred"

This movie has its shortcomings, but they are not outweighed by its flaws. At least the war scenes and human nature are somewhat realistic, and it is no longer about rushing forward desperately. Resoluteness is no longer a uniform hatred, but the attachment and cowardice that ordinary people of flesh and blood should have. The whole movie is very sad to watch, and it is shot very realistically. Although it is shocking, the reality is even worse than this.

9. "Changjin Lake"

I generally don't like watching war movies, but many people recommended it at the time, so I went with the mentality of giving it a try. I went to the cinema and it was amazing. It opened the door to a new world. Their patriotism and dedication really moved me. Instead of some dramas that always talk about how hard the patriotic ancestors worked, the audience simply couldn’t ** *Erotic and war movies usually focus on explosion scenes and action scenes, but I think the literary scenes in this film are more touching. Watching the movie after knowing the history of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea made me feel even more immersed. The determined will of the volunteers is very tear-jerking without deliberately exaggerating it.

10. "Youth"

I cried miserably while watching the screening of "Youth". It was not because I was moved by the so-called "heroes", but because I felt unworthy and uncomfortable for the victims. From this movie, you can feel a subtle accusation and condemnation of the war. What moved me the most was He Xiaoping, wearing a mental illness suit, dancing alone in the wilderness, and then regaining consciousness and returning to normal after being collectively destroyed. Maybe people in our generation cannot understand this pathology and are getting further and further away from it, but I saw at least a microcosm of the life of my parents’ generation.

The above is just my personal opinion. In fact, there are many excellent war movies in China, and you can choose to watch them according to your own preferences and interests.
