Brad Pitt's new film Fury, let's see what these people say.

Brad Pitt's new film Rage: Disappointing World War II blockbuster.

Lead: Variety magazine wrote that some heroic deeds are immortal: we still remember the Battle of the Alamo and 300 Spartan. But what if an American oil tanker with five drivers is defeated by a row of German soldiers? "Anger" did not show the depicted confrontation, which was quite different from the propaganda two months ago.

The film reviews are as follows:

The domestic response in the United States is mediocre, and director David Ayer's first big production will be aimed at overseas markets, but this fantasy of "American exceptionalism" will gain more notoriety.

The film is set at the end of World War II, when the Allies are advancing on Berlin, and the Nazis stubbornly resist at their doorstep. Fury turned the director's attention to military history. Similarly, for David Aiya, this film is a leap of ambition and production, but it also brings disappointment. Although the real historical details are carefully packaged and complicated situations are displayed on the screen, David Ayer's plays are weak in the most basic story level and the characters are not real enough. The final battle was exciting on the surface, but it was obviously stupid, which seriously affected the quality of the film.

Nevertheless, the film still benefits from the usual research methods of the script, capturing the actions of the frontline soldiers who are nervous and full of sense of justice, and what haunts our ears is accurate military terminology. When Sergeant Don Collier (Brad Pitt) and his men squeeze into the Sherman tank, the tension in the film is strengthened. They all have nicknames. Sergeant Collier was nicknamed "Wardaddy", and the tank they were driving was nicknamed "FURY", which was painted on the barrel of a 76 mm cannon.

As ordinary people, we may hate each other, but on the battlefield, we will be like brothers, which is indeed a miracle of the military service system. In the film, we not only see the soldiers abusing each other with vulgar words, but also see the strong friendship between these fictional characters.

The team of War Daddy includes Bible, Latin American driver Gordo and mechanic Kuhn. David Ayer introduced these characters in The Crowded Tank Thunder. Although they didn't have a good perspective, it didn't prevent them from making wisecracks. Through the cracks in the tank armor, photographer Roman WaSinov only captured the actor's eyes.

These tank men feel as if they are from hell. But don't be fooled by their personality and swearing. Their views may be different, but they all agree on one thing: this is the best job. For the recruit Norman Ellison, his views may be completely different. Norman is a gentle civilian in the army. He was assigned to this class. The reason why this role is inserted is because the film is mainly for the plot, not for the actual needs.

Norman was forced to join the team, and he was even unprepared. Therefore, Norman can act as an agent for the audience, and David Ayer can use him to spread the story to the audience. While cleaning the blood on the tank seat, Norman found the scalp of a German soldier, and he vomited on the spot. This is the usual way of war movies. Vomiting is unpleasant, but it is very effective (in Saving Private Ryan, Tom Hanks vomited when he landed in Normandy), just like a tough guy watching his minion smoke the first cigarette.

According to the statistics of Brigadier General S.L.A. Marshall, in World War II, 75% American soldiers never chose to shoot for the purpose of killing. Norman was also stingy with machine guns. But under the guidance of Zhan Dad, Norman grew rapidly.

Either because of the above reasons or because of the inherent risks of war, Norman, an inexperienced recruit, killed almost all his teammates. The rest of the film, the material David Ayer dug up is really too simple. In another episode of the film, Sergeant Collier encourages Norman to sleep with a girl. He said, "She is beautiful and clean. If you don't sleep with her, I'll leave. "

Samuel fuller, a veteran of World War II and a famous director, practiced a film philosophy. In all his films, the first shot and the last shot are the most important. So is Fury. The first act and the second act are battlefields full of corpses, and the movie is for us to witness the consequences of the war.

Generally speaking, Fury is more like an early video work carefully packaged, and the director always pays attention to the details of the work, unlike a modern war movie. The so-called modern war film, that is, the film uses modern hand-held photography, emphasizing the war scene as a whole. The same is true of the soundtrack of film composer Steven Price, who can also be familiar with war films.

Although the action scene was extremely tense, David Ayer balanced it with a calm picture between small-scale battles, which was equivalent to admitting that soldiers were bored most of the time in the war. It is difficult for soldiers to predict when and where the enemy will attack, but when they are attacked, they will immediately change from a safe state to a living state. This produced several thrilling confrontations. In one scene, Zhan Da's tanks single-handedly confronted the German Tiger tanks, taking advantage of speed and flexibility, and destroyed the Tiger tanks in a rage.

In another duel, the war daddy's tank drove into a forest at dusk. This war scene is very similar to Star Wars, where the two sides seem to shoot at each other with green and red laser guns. In fact, David Ayer specially studied the scene of tank shooting. Hot bullets can leave a flight path, so gunners can see their shooting direction.

Like The End of Watch, David Ayer once again became the God of Fury, and he decided the ultimate fate of the characters in the film, even though logically no one could survive. Half of the tanks were destroyed, and five men still insisted on fighting a 300-man German platoon. This choice is the most Hollywood film style. Hollywood movies often switch between cruel realistic details and rigid plots that serve the theme.

David Ayer is contradictory in the whole movie. On the one hand, he captures the slang of actors in his own way and encourages them to speak loudly. On the other hand, the actor is really talking, not giving a speech. If their sacrifice is remembered, we will definitely think that they are real men. Ironically, as a child in the team, Norman is the most mature character in Fury.
