The war theme film shapes the hero, and the hero images hold the war theme film. Due to the development of technology, contemporary war theme films have more skills and paths in the shaping of hero images. With the further blending of Eastern and Western cultures, the way in which hero images are shaped has also been used for mutual learning, or to reduce the depiction of individual heroism, or to throw away the rigid and straightforward preaching, so that the hero images are between the individual and others, society, and home country. The relationship gradually re-implemented its own image reconstruction, and also completed the theme of the film.
