If the war movies with big scenes and big special effects in the past are compared to restaurants with rich and varied dishes, then the war movie Sniper directed by Zhang Yimou is more like a hot private shop dedicated to the perfection of single dishes, thus attracting everyone's admiration. Just like Xu Beihong, who prefers painting horses, Qi Baishi, who has a soft spot for prawns.

The movie Sniper has no sea of people, no planes and cannons, no blasting and few special effects. It focuses on portraying and realistically describing a special group on the battlefield-several snipers of "Sniper Class Five".

The movie Sniper, as a war movie, neither created enemies nor vilified opponents. With different purposes and tasks, the enemy and I bravely and purposefully carried out fierce and cruel attack and defense, which were mutually exclusive and equal. It tells the story of a wonderful and tragic local small war and the arduous task of a war team.

I remember many people complained that Zhang Yimou's films were not strong in story-telling, saying that he couldn't tell stories well. The movie Sniper was also shot in the endless snow, but on the Cliff, there are not many empty environmental mirrors, instead, it focuses on shaping the characters and tells the audience a touching war stories of Sniper Class Five.

Halfway through the movie, when the suspense hasn't been revealed, I'm still worried that the opportunity of class five task in the movie is far-fetched. As the story developed, I found that I was worried too much. This is also "exchanging less for more" on the battlefield, which is not as emotional and controversial as the task motivation in the movie Saving Private Ryan. The film Sniper is more war-like and more in line with the battlefield story.

The information difference of the task object is the key point of the movie story and the turning point of the plot. At the same time, it is also an important factor that affects the change between the initiative and passivity of both sides.

It is worth mentioning that "Sniper" is very bold, and almost all the leading actors have started new actors. Although it is risky, it has no original impression because it is completely unfamiliar, but it has a good sense of realism and substitution. One by one is like a real volunteer soldier we know and have never met.

Although this movie is not deliberately sensational, when you hear the ending song "Going Home" sung by Han Hong after the movie, you can't help but relive this movie through the lyrics on the screen, and realize the greatness of the sacrifice and dedication of every "sniper" soldier, and you can't help crying.
