One can always rely on oneself only

Tonight enjoy the film "Iron Fist" that is ready to hit the Oscars. The content of the story is not new, and the layout is small. It is nothing more than how boxers get out of failure and succeed, so the integration of inner drama and outer conflict is particularly important. Gyllenhaal is dazzling, from Brokeback Mountain to Nightcrawler to Iron Fist, there are not many scenes, but it is refreshing. Therefore, he succeeded in completing the boxer's self-redemption in this play, at least proving that the tendon was not practiced in vain. As for the external conflict, it is still a little reluctant. The death of his wife, the cause of Hobby's death, the complaint of his daughter and the final reconciliation are all sudden. I just know that the film should go this way, and ignore the importance of details. At the same time, if you want to bid for the Olympics, you must give a warm push to people's life questions in addition to the competition scenes, but because the dramatic conflict is too sudden and the audience's emotions are incoherent, you can't help but feel that you are not moved enough, and that you are more than mediocre. I want to rush Ao should be hopeless, but it's still a good movie, and it's still worth watching...

    It would have been better if I cut 30 minutes. It's a cliché and mediocre story, but seeing Jack's skinny in Nightcrawler suddenly become muscular, I really want to applaud him, his eyes are full of drama.

    Pay more attention to family life and add a lot of details. Little Jack did a great job. But the whole is still the way to fall and get up again.
