Let me first talk about the personal rating standard of
5 points--4 points for must-see classics
--more exciting, recommended to watch
3 points--but it's not lost, you can watch
2 points if you have free time--even if you don't watch it, there is nothing to lose
1 point --Completely a waste of time
X.5 points--Between the two, let's

briefly talk about the film. Personal score is 3 points.

It is difficult for boxing movies to get rid of genre routines, and the protagonist grows from a small person to a big hero. Or the protagonist originally had outstanding achievements, but after sinking, he made a comeback. This film belongs to the latter.

Thanks to modern film technology, the film is very rich in visual effects, the boxing scenes are edited quickly, and there are a lot of subjective shots, which is more enjoyable. But in terms of plot, it is quite weak. After the male protagonist's wife was shot and killed, he originally thought that the male protagonist would make a comeback to find the real culprit. Unexpectedly, the male protagonist just defeated the provocative opponent and regained the championship. The death of the wife is black and white. mentioned. There are still illogical points in the plot. As a dignified lightweight boxing champion, the male protagonist can't even do basic defense, and he has to focus on training defense. Could it be that his championship is obtained by defending with his face?

In short, this film is a visual film, and the emotional depth of the characters is not enough. Needless to say, compared to the earlier "Raging Bull" and "Rocky", it is said that compared with the newer "Million Dollar Baby" and "Iron Fist Man", the script is more emotional There is also a big difference in the above, but it is generally acceptable, and you can take a look when you have free time.
