The premiere of War Meridian is over.
What was gratifying to see was that all the audience members who walked out of the premiere at the National Library had red eyes.
Many female viewers were so distraught that they cried.
But after walking out, many people still couldn't help crying.
"This dog director, I should have thought of it earlier!"
"No wonder they are giving out tissues, one pack is not enough!"
"I cried so much that I dare not watch this kind of movie a second time!"
"Halfway through watching it, I couldn't bear it anymore. I was crying to death!"
"Although I cried miserably, more movies like this should be made!"
Fans who came out shared their feelings about watching the movie.
Some movie fans can't wait to go online to give their review of the movie.
"I almost cried my eyes out. It was so uncomfortable, but I couldn't help but hope that more people could see this movie. This is the movie we long for, the movie we hope to see, "War Meridian" , five-star recommendation!”
"War Meridian" is a huge hit. I even think this kind of film is more shocking than "Wreaths Under the Mountain". Full marks!"
"Our heroes may not be heroic enough, but our heroes are real! When the art troupe died, it was so real that I dare not watch it again!"
"I once met someone who said that we don't need to keep our hatred until now, and we must learn to let go of it. This sentence is possible for other things, but it is impossible for the Japanese and us."
"I suddenly remembered that I watched "City of Life and Death" some time ago, and I felt that Lu Jing should really watch this movie. If you are willing to fight, you will die, and if you forget to fight, you will be in danger.
Talking about world recognition is really pretentious. If we are still poor and weak, do you think their warships will come in?
What we need to discuss is not how to get recognized, but how to continue to be strong. "
"Don't try to persuade others to be kind without their suffering. We are not qualified to forgive those war criminals on behalf of our ancestors."
"I cried miserably. The saddest thing is that many of us have forgotten that this is just the tip of the iceberg of the cruelty of war..."
"I used to say: "Long live the people's heroes, the people's heroes are immortal", but I always said it easily. I know that many martyrs shed their blood for today's peace, and I know that many martyrs sacrificed for today's peace, but it has never been truly I feel the sacrifice, but I never really understand it. It wasn’t until I watched this movie today that I truly realized that today’s life is hard-won, and I felt the weight of the words that the people’s heroes will live forever!”
"Parents should really watch movies like this with their children. Today's education is missing this part. Occasionally when I see this kind of movie, I will cry and tell my daughter about the Anti-Japanese War, about heroes, and about us. The origin of a peaceful and happy life now.”
"Those scenes where two times and spaces intersect are heart-wrenching to watch. Our children today are so lacking in education in this area!"
Just the first day of release.
"War Meridian" once maintained a rating of 9.5 or above on the popular film review website. However, there is usually a small group of people who always pour cold water on this type of film.
But it was quickly drowned in countless people's rebuttals.
However, there is one thing that makes Li Yi particularly gratified. This time, no one calls him a bad director!
Movie fans are finally sensible!
And soon, many film critics also joined in!
Du Xianghai, Li Yi's number one film critic, immediately wrote a film review.
The title is very simple and clear: "They are still just children, and they still cry "Mom"".
"I watched every one of Li Yi's movies without missing a beat. The ones that made me cry the most were "The Story of Hachiko" and "Wreaths Under the Mountain". I once thought that in terms of sensationalism and tear-jerking, these two were the best. The movie has gone to the extreme.
But after watching "War Meridian", I not only burst into tears in the theater, but after I came back, when I wrote a review and recalled the scenes in the movie, I couldn't help but choke again.
After watching the movie, I really want to say that they are still just children, and they still cry for their mother!
The little blind girl who was poisoned cried for her mother when she was hungry; the little girl who was hanging on the edge of the cliff cried for her mother when she was holding on to the cliff with her hands and trying hard to get away but could not get up; the mountain cannon , the son of the political minister of the military division, firmly remembered his father's words to wait for him in Yangcun, and went to Yangcun to find him after the war, but he did not know that his father had already died.
They're just kids. In peaceful times, this is the age for studying, the age for enjoying childhood and happiness.
However, at that time, they were only a little older, and they could only call mother when they encountered difficulties, but they had to take up responsibilities, learn to protect themselves, learn to work as a team, and even help others and defend their own lives. motherland.
These children did not go to war, it was the war that found them. They would not have been so if the invaders had not started the war.
At the beginning, I felt that deliberately inserting modern children, or letting children wearing Eighth Route clothing stand on the current streets, seemed very stiff and a bit inexplicable.
After watching it, I felt that this was the beauty of the movie.
Perhaps Director Li Yi's original intention was to use this kind of picture and this kind of artistic expression to tell our modern children to cherish their current life.
Now it looks particularly sad.
Xiao Xiao longed to study, but at that time, he might not have even attended a serious school. They longed to study, longed to be happy, and longed to have something to eat.
The trumpet who was killed by the landmine shed tears when he saw the modern school, the loud sound of reading, and sat in the seat of the multimedia room. For the trumpets, these are completely extravagant hopes, and they are the last of their dreams. Well, the best, and for our children today, these are easily available.
Maybe it is true to that sentence, the easier it is to get it, the less you know how to cherish it.
Do our children know that all this was poured into them with the blood of their ancestors?
A veteran, he is indeed a veteran. He said proudly, I have participated in three anti-mopping operations. I have been in the army for seven years, but he is only sixteen years old!
He is already a veteran of hundreds of battles at the age of sixteen. Why do I always want to cry when I hear his words? Seven years ago, he was only nine years old!
But at the age of nine, he was already a warrior!
What were we doing as sixteen-year-olds? I can't imagine the difference between the two!
The veteran ran on the modern plastic track, wearing pure white clothes, and rushed to the finish line.
But in history, in order to cover the nurse and the ten-and-a-half-year-old, he made his own bait to blow up the enemy. Both of his feet were hit by bullets. In order to eliminate more Japanese, he dragged his legs to crawl to grab the mines, trailing two traces of blood behind him. Isn't he afraid?
I think he was also afraid, but he still did it, because at that time, he was a soldier, a glorious Eighth Route Army soldier, but he, he was still a child!
Cao'er, the youngest child in the movie, has always been the childish voice of a sharp-tongued girl in the movie. At the end of her life, she didn't count to 999, but she saw stars.
She experienced a cruelty that no child has ever experienced. She was placed in a fellow villager's home by her mother, but all the fellow villagers were massacred by the Japanese army, and she was the only one left alive!
She saw a fat man on the modern Great Wall holding a drink in one hand and a piece of bread in the other. In the end, he threw the food away without finishing it. But now the little girl wiped the blood on her hands, and when she came back with a bunch of snacks, Cao'er had already left.
Every scene is so cruel and straightforward. They are still just children!
To the north is the base area and to the west are the Japanese. But the order was to go west, and the veteran took over the task without hesitation, even if it was not his task. This is the mission of a soldier, to accept orders. Even in the end, I didn't know what the order was.
Some people may say, is it not worth it for 12 children to save one wounded person?
All I can say is that you live in a peaceful country, so you can have dreams, have enough to eat, have clothes to wear, and your imagination can be unlimited. But please remember that in troubled times, there are no men, women, young or old, only Chinese people. At the last moment of the country, even a child under 10 years old must shoulder the burden and thunder to kill the enemy, even if it is suicide. When there is peace, your three-acre land is your home. When it is invaded, this country is your home. You must defend your home. This has nothing to do with cold-bloodedness or value. It is just to protect your home and country. , for this land!
Some people may say, is this true?
Please don't think it's untrue. What's true is that there are photos of G Army child soldiers in history textbooks. Not to mention the ranks of the Eighth Route Army. Many children survived the raids and followed the army. Many children were Eighth Route Army soldiers in their teens. So thank our ancestors for creating peace for us, and cherish the opportunity to study and study. After all, they were already on the battlefield when they were younger than us.
In fact, in my opinion, this movie is very, very real, in every aspect.
There are no miracles, no superheroes, no saviors in the war in this movie.
There are many things that make people long for miracles, but none of them happen!
Cao'er's blind eyes will not heal, nor will the wounded's injuries. No one in the art troupe hanging on the edge of the cliff can help.
They don't have that kind of miraculous anti-Japanese methods. They are even a little immature and clumsy.
For example, if the trumpet blows and the target is exposed, if the trumpet steps on a forgotten landmine, if the art troupe escapes and escapes to a dead end, even if it is as strong as a "veteran", it will miss the mark and be shot.
But they all did it bravely and faithfully carried out an order that they had no idea what it was. For this order, I dared to sacrifice. He implemented the discipline of the Eighth Route Army, sacrificed himself for the large army, did not kill prisoners and children, and did not leave the army without permission to enjoy the food.
I think this is our anti-Japanese spirit. There is no miracle or heroism, but a spirit of bravery and sacrifice under discipline, kindness and simplicity. True courage does not mean not being afraid of death. A simple lack of fear of death can only be called ignorance of death, such as that of the Japanese. True courage is when you are so scared that you cry for your mother, but you still stand up and do what you need to do. "
For the outbreak of "War Meridian", competitors at the same time were already mentally prepared.
But they didn't expect that this movie would be even more exaggerated than "Wreaths Under the Mountain".
In fact, this is really not difficult to understand, because this movie tells the story of children.
On National Day, "War Meridian" almost instantly killed other movies in the same period, and no one was spared.
Even Li Zhanshan's "Awesome!" "My Motherland" has a pretty good reputation, but it was still defeated by "War Meridian".
Because, "War Meridian" and "Awesome!" Compared with "My Motherland", the two films tell completely different directions.
And that's not all.
The official media is also on National Day.
I used a character comparison picture from "War Meridian" as the composition of the article.
The picture shows Cao'er in 1942 and a child in 2019.
The text attached to the picture is: "Things were in turmoil that year. May you have a prosperous life in the next life!"
At the same time, the article records the personal experiences and narrations of some surviving elderly people. Reading them one by one is equally unbearable. Every word is so piercing, which makes people feel sad and hurts their eyes.
That period of history should not be forgotten, and the pain and resentment in our hearts should also be resolved. The hell-like events on earth tell us how precious peace is and how much life needs to be respected.
There is also a picture, which is a silhouette of the cultural troupe on a cliff under the sunset.
The comparison is with another child standing on the Great Wall.
Text attached to the picture: "I'm sorry, I can't save you, but I won't forget you!"
All these make the movie "War Meridian" even more outstanding.
And many parents also brought their children into the theater.
A parent was interviewed by the media as he walked out of the theater with his child whose eyes were red from crying.
"Why take your children to watch this movie?" the reporter asked.
"Dream of peace, see the peaceful years of childhood in the war-torn years, the cruelty of war makes people feel the same.
Maybe children will have many questions when watching this movie at this time, but I believe they will understand how lucky they are now compared to those children in the war years. "
Another middle-aged father walked out of the theater with his son who was 17 or 18 years old. When being interviewed by a reporter, he said: "The interweaving of the two time and space scenes in the movie is the most unforgettable. It is very interesting to watch." It makes people feel unable to calm down. Walking in the traffic, the blue sky square, and running in the huge sports field, all of this is so illusory. It is the dream of all children and the dream of the Chinese people in the war.
I think back in those days, when the college entrance examination had just been resumed, and all the young people were studying for the prosperity of the motherland. What people learned was dedication and ability. In factories, units, but at the grassroots level, they are serious about learning, serious about work, and serious about the motherland.
What about our children today?
Ask yourself how many people are wasting their time on a happy campus, and they still claim that studying hard makes people lose their youth. Young people should be impulsive and have individuality. Of course people have different understandings. But if you don't study hard and waste time, you will let some people down.
I hope my children can understand that they are really lucky to have such a group of children who have gone through the war years for us, allowing them to have the wonderful life they have today! "
After the release of "War Meridian".
Lu Jing's "City of Life and Death" was once again taken out and flogged.
"Why are the scenes in our current war movies getting bigger and bigger, but they don't make me cry like this movie."
"Because many people sit on their butts, such as "City of Life and Death"!"
"Yes, how can Lu Jing have the face to face these children who died in the war and tell them that there are good people among the Japanese?"
"The facts are so cruel. There is nothing to be seen or seen. We must always tell the younger generations that our predecessors spent their lives to build a new China. We must be stronger and stronger. We will no longer fall behind and be beaten. That is the best consolation for the martyrs." I want to watch this movie again with my kids! Not the bullshit "City of Life and Death"!"
"16 years old, seven-year veteran, crying. Nowadays, many younger children do not understand the feelings of family and country. Perhaps the information age is too fast. You can like what you like, but you can't forget it! So I hope everyone can Go watch "War Meridian" instead of "City of Life and Death"!
Because we have no qualifications to forgive those beasts on behalf of the martyrs! "
Lu Jing was dumbfounded!
He didn't expect that even though his movie had been released, he still couldn't escape.
He wanted to give himself a few slaps at this moment, just because he wanted to pull Li Yi to fight the thunder together, but as a result, now that "War Meridian" is released, the positions and themes of the two movies are so completely opposite.
Many movie fans, when discussing "War Meridian", couldn't help but pull out "City of Life and Death" to whip the corpse!
And the road scene was scolded by many fans who watched "War Meridian" because of "City of Life and Death"!
All I have to do is say that he is a Japanese devil!
"War Meridian" does not have any lofty themes or loud slogans like other anti-war movies, but only those children!
Not all of them are perfect, they also have a childish side, and some of them will tease Cao'er for being blind. They also like the beautiful red leaves. Look, how beautiful they are?
They may also play the trumpet clumsily, revealing their position;
Seeing the rabbits giving birth to baby rabbits, no one objected to letting the rabbit family go, even though they were all very hungry.
When they saw the three Japanese children, even though their eyes were full of hostility, even if they wanted to die together, the veteran still couldn't do it... Didn't he hate them in his heart? How can you not hate it, but this is the difference between humans and beasts!
In fact, the movie is not that perfect, and there are many things in it that are more freehand than realistic.
Such as the intersection of two time and space, such as the veteran blowing up the tunnel alone and killing the group of Japs... But this movie has touched countless people and made countless fans. Shocking.
