not entirely my thing but i like when the sailors try to help the people but that is all in vein as they get attacked.
its a great commentary about how good deeds are often drowned out or washed away by evil higher ups.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A visceral, formally audacious account of mutiny and massacre that uses explosive montage to turn political rage into pure cinema. The film feels less like narrative and more like a hammer blow.
