剧情介绍
在朝鲜战争期间，3名美军士兵被命令执行押解的犯人，藏在他们的返回的船上。 但是，最终，他们没有一个敢于迈出第一步，局势变得日益引人注目...
During an evacuation in the waning days of the Korean War, three American soldiers retrieve an enemy airman and take him prisoner aboard the civilian ship returning them to their lines. When an order comes down from their superiors to kill the prisoner, the sergeant in charge, Briscoe, orders his men, Dennison and Hackett, to carry out the execution. But first one and then the other refuse to follow the order. A tense stand-off ensues between the seemingly heartless sergeant and his conscience-stricken men.
让人心情复杂的人性测验。确如开场白所说，朝鲜战争并非这类故事的专有背景，是men in war的故事而不是men at war。本来感觉前段有些过分滥情和说教，然而几个人物关系和前情的交代都为后面的冲突爆发做了有效铺垫，每个点掐得都挺好，故事和人物的逻辑足够清晰。KD演最擅长的人物类型，个性里的所有矛盾之间最终都能架起桥梁使人理解：对精神上不落下风的下属A亦父亦友，对外强中干的下属B抓住把柄尽情压制，看似用铁血军人身份合理化恃强凌弱的本能和（表面上的）对生命的漠视，到最后屈服于并未真被磨灭的人性并且似乎找回了一些内心平静……这个人物一波三折的心理变化看他演真的很过瘾。小Walker长得还挺像他爸的，演戏天赋不如他爸。
