The special thing about "Eight Hundred" is that it can be said that it is indeed a live war broadcast.
And similarly, there is a scene of heaven and hell separated by a river. Although it is not unusual in many movies, what is really amazing is that this is the case in real history.
That makes it hard not to mention.
After all, on one side there are bullets and bullets flying, and on the other side there is feasting, singing and dancing.
People on the other side of the river can even safely watch a real war. This situation is unique even in the history of wars in the world.
This established the particularity of the Sihang Warehouse defense battle.
However, as the number one Li Chui, Du Xianghai took a different approach to comment on this movie!
"If you were born in Shang Hai of that era, what kind of person would you be?"
""The Eight Hundred" is a heroic ensemble drama. There are hundreds of people in the film, dozens of people with names and surnames, and more than a dozen key characters, each with a distinctive personality and flesh and blood.
There are always people who shock you, there are always people who move you, and there are always people who tell you to stand still.
So, who is your favorite character in "Eight Hundred"? Or, who do you think you would be if it were you?
Is it Lao Hulu?
He was originally a member of a security group in Hu Bei, an old Jianghu, and just like Lao Abacus, in the war-torn days, he was ignorant and was collected into the Sixing Warehouse. He had no idea of defending his family and country and killing the enemy bravely. I am always thinking about how to escape the "grave" of war and take my nephews Duanwu and Xiao Hubei back to their hometown. He is not a soldier, or he does not look like a soldier, he is more of a parent, an elder. He may only have the concept of protecting the family and not the idea of defending the country, but he represents many people.
Is it Dragon Boat Festival?
Lao Hulu's nephew, a young man in his early twenties, should be a young man captured temporarily. From the countryside, he walked into Da Shanghai amid gunfire and smoke for the first time, and walked into the Sihang Warehouse where blood and flesh were everywhere. When he saw blood, he He closed his eyes and trembled all over when he picked up the gun. He also tried to escape from Sihang Warehouse twice.
Duanwu is ignorant. He came here initially just because he wanted to "see the world" and see what the metropolis looks like.
If there had been no war, Duanwu might have been living a stable life in a small place. Duanwu's biggest wish was to see the sea, but he entered the Sihang Warehouse by accident. He just wanted to escape at first, but... In the end, he was infected by his comrades in the warehouse, and Duan Wu completely grew up and transformed into a responsible soldier.
Xiao Hu Bei, Dragon Boat Festival's cousin, was only a thirteen-year-old child. He followed his cousin ignorantly and passively walked into the bloody storm, at a loss. Everyone took good care of him and treated him as a child, but when Xiao Qiyue, who was protecting him, fell in front of him, he suddenly grew up overnight. Others, he was still just a child, but this child always paid attention to him. Grandpa’s words, so he finally chose to stay. Maybe, he was thinking, if it was Xiao Qiyue, he would do the same thing, right?
Lao Tie, I believe that when everyone sees him, they will not think that he is a coward as timid as a mouse. He is a thick and strong man, but he is a real "coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death." When the guns rang out and blood splattered, I was so scared that I hugged my head and cried like a little girl. He was asked to go to the battlefield, but his legs were shaking and he couldn't stand up. He likes to scold people for being cowards, but in fact, he is the real coward. He is especially afraid of gunshots. But such a coward has gone from being greedy for life and afraid of death to moving forward bravely. In the time of singing "Dingjun Mountain", or It is said that the heroic spirit in Sihang Warehouse completely changed Lao Tie.
Old Abacus, this is the most annoying character in the whole movie. He was originally the accountant of a local vigilante group. You can guess by his name that he is a man who plots everything. In the movie, by some strange combination of circumstances, he drifts with the tide and is dragged into the war "grave" of Siping Warehouse. However, he does not have the ambition or courage to kill the enemy and save the country. Instead, he is always thinking about his wife and children, and plotting how to do it. To escape life.
The old abacus is very clever, but he uses this cleverness against his own people. He uses a coin with the same two sides to deceive the old man and excuses his escape behavior with a glib tongue. What is particularly ironic is that although we hate such people, the fact is that such people lived to the end, and even lived well. To put it bluntly, even in our era, such people are still alive. Still living better than many people.
Sheep crutch! This may be my personal favorite character. He is a heroic warrior from the beginning, and he can release everything about himself at will, including his unyielding arrogance, lone wolf-like murderousness, and look who Not pleasing to the eye.
At the beginning, Yangguai was also a miscellaneous army from various places who came to support Shanghai. He was regarded as a deserter by the defenders of the 88th Division and was captured in Sihang Warehouse. Compared to Lao Hulu and Lao Abacus, who were real deserters who wanted to run away even after they got here, Yangguai had a calmness about being at ease once he came. He always had a calm look on his face, and even in the end, when he died heroically, he still smoked a cigarette coolly.
As long as he has a cigarette, that's all. Smoke is his life.
Then, after he saved Lao Tie from Zhu Shengzhong's gun, he spent most of the time hanging out with him, the two oldest soldiers in the game.
However, they are still very different. Lao Tie is a coward most of the time, while Yang Guai can kill enemies with a gun.
Yangguai is different from any other character. He fired for the first time, one shot at a time, and every gun shot him in the head.
Yangguai has had top-notch combat effectiveness from the beginning and has never been timid. Who wouldn't like Yangguai's ruthlessness in killing Xiaozhi?
The second time was when I was raising the flag on the roof of the building and was shot wildly by Japanese planes.
It turned out that there was no flagpole on the warehouse. Instead, a long bamboo pole was used as the flagpole, and a few soldiers were required to carry it underneath. When the air raid began, the soldiers were scattered and the flags fell. Just when the flag was about to touch the ground, a strong hand grabbed the flagpole, straightened it again, and lifted it up.
How could you not like a man who has such an aura as the protagonist?
Finally, the eight hundred warriors received orders to evacuate that night.
He chose to sign his name!
And even such a veteran who is extremely cool in everything he does also has his own regrets. He failed to marry a wife, and he has never even touched her in his life. When he gave Lao Tie smoke, he asked him what it felt like. In the end He said longingly: It's so good. It makes me laugh, but at the same time, I want to cry inexplicably.
In the face of war, he has never been afraid, and he can always live a good life. We can imagine that if he chooses to leave, then he can definitely live a good life, but he chose to sign his name and chose to live a certain life in the next life. Have a taste of this! Not in this life! "
