So, I've been watching war movies with one of my buds, and first one was american Hurt Locker that told about Operation Iraqi Freedom's aftermatch in Baghdad city, Iraq's capital city. The movie was different kind of war movie, not starred up by some over-hyped cast and it wasn't loaded up by mindless action. It just simply told about life on a battlefield, in pioneer squad that just disarmed harmful IEDs and other bombs. It seriously got 5/5 from me, as it was intelligent, deep and realistic.
As bomb-unit's former commanding sub officer dies in violent 155mm artillery grenade explosion, new asshole is transferred from Afghanistan to take control over the unit. Movie was good, and stays in my favorites.
Second one was korean Joint Security Area, that actually was stunningly awesome movie. Once again, no mindless action, but it was an detailed description of murder investigation regarding an incident that occur in North- and South-Korean borderline between North -and South-Korean soldiers. South-Korean sergeant Lee admitted that he killed three N-Koreans but then again Swiss investigator with Swedish officer were ordered to question Lee about his motives.
The movie was exceptionally good, but the name of Swedish officer bothered both of us, raising different sorts of amusement: what are the odds that someone got name "Persson". As 'Pers' can be referred to 'ass' in finnish language and 'son' simply means son, it can be pulled together as "Ass-son". And what is funny about this, sub-worthy joke is that some of us finns have the habit to refer swedes as gay people (this of course only shows the jealousy of our nation towards to Sweden) and to that end "Ass-son" is rather 'funny' joke. Never mind.
To this rather boring post I shall end my tour on Blogspot, if anyone bothers to comment, I will answer to them, but new posts are out of the question.
