      Dreams, beliefs - the light that drives you across the vast desert, ignoring the eyes of others just for victory

      With the ball in his hand, Angel was filled with unease and tears in his eyes. The coach walked up to him.
        "Everyone counts on you."
        "No, not everyone. My dad, he mocks me."
        "I forgot to give you this. Your dad gave it to him, he's proud of you."
        Angel kissed the one Necklace, calm down your heart. He raised his arms and threw two strikes in a row. The audience cheered for him, as well as the father of the gods in his hometown, and the father who left his post in...

      The young man who is chasing his dreams and being an assistant coach in the Red Sparrows is actually a chorus of jobs. I could guess before that, he also came for his dream, and also wanted to experience a bloody youth, go to Fight and chase.

      But it backfired, he took care of everything in the team. He left the United States and returned to his hometown of Mexico. He had an errand in an industrial city, and occasionally he was treated unfairly. They thought he was not a...

      A sports-themed movie, the movie was shot and edited in a fragmented way, to avoid the scenes of these children playing baseball, focusing on the emotional drama outside the game, the drama in the characters' hearts, under the oppression of the outside world's racist concept , the process of constantly conquering itself. The ideology of racial discrimination adds a different color and tone to the film, and also establishes that this is an inspirational and passionate film that uses miracles to...

    Movie plot

    In the 1950s, a group of ragged children from a slum in the city of Monterrey in northern Mexico already had a strong interest and talent for baseball. In the eyes of others, this group of thin, shabby poor children was simply incomparable to the noble sport of baseball at the time. It is this group of children who can't even afford decent jerseys, sneakers, and even bats and balls. Under the guidance and leadership of "old neighbor"...

    Evaluation action

    Although the film has countless topics to talk about: true events, legendary stories, inspirational passions, etc., everything that is a little bit cliché still somewhat dispels people's interest in such films. However, "The Perfect Game" can still be seen as a way for Hollywood people to "participate" in the Olympics from a different angle   . (Sina Entertainment Review)
