      "The Killing of Munich" film review

      "The Killing of Munich" is one of the only two movies I have made to go to the cinema in recent years. As a viewer who doesn't even know much about basketball, I initially chose to watch its movies out of curiosity. Before reading it, I searched the introduction and knew that this was a story with a lore in the last three seconds. In fact, I was still curious about how to attract audiences to spend two hours watching a story that knew the ending. One of the things that attracts me most about...

      Ugh

      I really don’t know who gave such a high score. First of all, from the narrative level, this movie tells about a real historical event, but whether it’s the narrative before the finals or the interpretation of the finals, it’s all super rubbish. It's a cliché. The previous plot is confusing. It's like a hodgepodge of hodgepodge. You talk about everything, but you don't say anything. Winning the championship, the players have no sense of sublimation of the characters, and it feels almost like...

      Love can be everything, even if it's clumsy

      A year before the 1979 Munich Olympics, the new Soviet basketball coach, Garland, said at a press conference that since the US basketball team must be defeated, it is not ashamed to lose to us. Those remarks made the Soviet authorities ridiculed, at a time when the United States had won 36 consecutive championships and Soviet basketball was just a rookie in Europe. But this short year has really made the big story come true. This year, Garland, who was not favored, insisted on...

      A movie that is not afraid of spoilers (*micro spoilers)

      This is a movie that is not afraid of spoilers.

      How can the story be told when the ending is already doomed?

      First, break up the story.

      Put the story on each individual character, with their own motivations and twists.

      When the head coach decides to go abroad for training, is he going to treat the child for the sake of public welfare?

      Will the bearded Galloff despise the coach, will it affect the team's game?

      Will the little handsome Lithuanian run...

      the power of faith

      The movie is very inspiring and inspirational, based on real events. The Russian national basketball coach led the national team to a championship at the Munich Olympics in Germany, breaking the U.S. team's 36-year monopoly of Olympic champions. The movie basically took more than 40 minutes to restore the scene of the game, but it didn't feel procrastinating and tedious at all, but felt very exciting and exciting. The allure of sports.

      First of all, the coach has a very strong will to...

      Full of political satire. Summed up in one sentence, it is almost "the system is ruthless and people have feelings", what is the fight for Guo Jia, I fight for you, only for you! I didn't hold on to the United States to be black, so that's why the coach is not a good thing (a lot of spoilers below). (xiao) The charm of song (huo)... How did the leg injury of Sergey, the absolute core of the Soviet team, temporarily overcome? Isn't that medicine given by American players? And Sasha's heart,...

      Is this any different from other biopics? If you just watch the film and don’t understand this history, it will be a movie with no cause, a mythical story, and a bloody ending, which means that this movie cannot exist as a literary and artistic work alone. This section of history is shown to future generations, which seems to be incomparable to any sports documentaries; in addition, the State Sports Bureau organizes all the viewing of the film, I don't think it has any effect, and we don't know...

      The shooting level is still ok, high frame slow motion, color correction, and angle are all good. Let’s talk about the bad points: on the one hand, the technical aspects of basketball are not shown enough. For example, various training techniques, tactical skills, etc. are rarely photographed. Excessive shaking makes professional basketball players feel that the shooting is "unprofessional", and it is precisely because of this shortcoming that it just dilutes the emotional impact of the Soviet...

      8.5 points; Broadway Studios on the side of the Concord, the whole hall applauds when the lore is over; historically, a kind of off-court result justice (FIBA President) is used to ensure the procedural justice on the court (but the last three seconds must be The process is really exciting; the title should directly show the flashback scene of the final; it is flammable and explosive, and it is full of Russian humor; The spectators (announcers, hosts, officials, Georgian folks, American street...

      Domestic sports commercial films are basically blank lore, which is considered to be passable, neat, humorous, mocking brotherhood, etc. The use of commercial film elements is also quite skilled, but it always feels unreal. Years ago, a country bumpkin without any self-confidence was reborn as a lore and lore, the basketball hegemon, the American Emperor. I believe it can make people believe that a rookie is only one perfect coach and a few games abroad away from the Olympic champion. It's an...

    The film shows Chinese audiences the strength of the Russian film industry and its attitude of excellence. Even if the "battlefield" is condensed into a small stadium, it can still use superb shooting techniques and editing rhythm to present the innate fighting nation. Spiritual colors   . (m1905 review)
    Different from traditional Hollywood sports films, the film used nearly half of the space to restore almost the entire match between...
