Épico de guerra dirigido pelo francês Arthur Harari, Onoda, 10 000 Nuits dans la Jungle inspira-se na história real de Hiroo Onoda (1922-2014), um oficial japonês da inteligência do Exército Imperial japonês que combateu nas Filipinas durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial e que passou quase 30 anos nas selvas da ilha de Lubang após o fim do conflito, nunca se convencendo de que a guerra tinha terminado. Foi o penúltimo soldado japonês a dar baixa, em março de 1974. Arthur Harari constrói um respeitável épico de guerra sobre uma personagem que pode ser vista de vários ângulos (ou como uma figura polifacetada e contraditória), sendo para uns um herói e um resistente que se recusou a submeter-se aos invasores ocidentais e para outros um louco delirante que matou inocentes enquanto travava uma guerra santa imaginária.

The runtime of this film might seem daunting to those unfamiliar with the subject, but considering it spans thirty years of guerrilla activities by the Japanese army on the island of Lubang, it's quite understandable. Having read Onoda's book "No Surrender: My Thirty-Year War" many years ago, I was initially shocked by the unbelievable account, but the film couldn't catch me off guard. The creators handled the topic admirably, though they couldn't resist some unnecessary dramatization here and there (the addition of the character Iniez to the plot left me scratching my head - perhaps quotas?). However, both actors portraying Hiro Onoda did an excellent job resembling the original figure. Even though there was very little happening at times that even slightly hinted at action, the film kept me engaged throughout. I appreciated the story of perseverance, sense of duty, and the rigorous training that instills a distrust of false enemy propaganda. Onoda's unwavering approach was admirable, although it's likely that Filipinos, who suffered from his subversive activities, may have a different perspective. / Lesson learned: If you've reached your limit, grit your teeth and push through. 5*-
