The fight is refreshing, what about after the fight?

Before watching this movie, I absolutely never thought that this kind of vulgar-looking movie would be my food, so that after watching the 1080p version of the movie, I fell into a kind of YY. I just wanted to change the plot. It was in the state I wanted, but probably after all, it was still not strong enough, and soon I realized that I shouldn't go on fornicating. Such a low-investment movie, the plot is not surprising, but it is watching to relieve the qi, blood, and want to jump up and beat the guys who play tricks with the players. This made me see a completely different way of life: can't you see it? Then speak with your fist! This may be a stupid way of solving problems, but when we were young, who did not dream of living a life of pure men? Violence may be bad after all, who cares? After all, people have to leave a little time for their own bloodliness. When we finally get old, we will still be delighted when we think of it, at least we were lovers of personalities before, right?

The character played by SWS in this movie is kind and simple, but has a strong body enough to be one-to-many. He has no strengths except for fighting. It would be very sad for such a person to fail to find his place. , Because in the end he will be unable to control the other himself, hurt the people around him, and let others stay away. But in this movie, he finds a job he loves, and finally he no longer needs to wear security clothes. It is against his will to throw a beer bottle in the bar. He can vent his anger on the ice hockey rink, use his strong body to protect his teammates, there will be children wearing his clothes, there will be teammates hugging him warmly, and someone will avenge him after he keeps the goal with his face. . In such a place, he would not be alone.

The saber-toothed tiger plays a person who is very similar to the male protagonist here, the same strong, and also a master of fights. His conversation with Doug in the bar is impressive. The audience loves to watch them bleed. They are injured on the field, making Others are injured, as if they never stop, and then when the time comes to fight, God takes everything back, leaving only loneliness and full of "is it worth it?" This is the motto of a man who lived for most of his life following his own desire. But I don't think he regrets it, so when Doug says, "They want me to bleed, I'll show it to them", he smiles appreciatively. Loneliness, what a terrible word, but in life, when there is no loneliness, a powerful person will not be held back by this word and lose the way forward. Just like Doug, he is not only powerful in his body, but also in his heart. He understands that his fists can make many people follow his wishes, but he does not. This is the real strong, powerful, but never abuse his power. Looking at Doug's expression outside his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend's door, people really have to fall in love with such a silly boy.

In my impression, the sports movie that made me happy and worried me in the last step was the light of victory in 2004. Perhaps this movie can't reach that height. After all, the ending is a lot worse. But I think I will remember such a silly cute puppy face. If Winchel let me understand the pain of growing up, understand responsibility, and the meaning of perfection. Then Doug is the one who taught me what to be strong.







I watched it again after a while, and I thought it was hypocritical, and I didn't dare to look directly at the film reviews I wrote. But this is how I felt after the enthusiasm had subsided at that time. Sports movies are generally inspirational, which will make the audience feel like chicken blood. But a good sports film is not only chicken blood, it will let the audience examine themselves, find problems or get encouragement. The enthusiasm is only temporary, and it will not last long.

This film and the light of victory are based on real people and real events, so they explain the fate of the protagonist after the game is over. This is different from the general sports inspirational movies that are fixed at the end of the game, so it seems more thought-provoking: the glory of the game. It's like soap bubbles, beautiful, but it doesn't last long. Is it worth so much for this? I think the protagonists must think it is worth it. So this kind of inspirational movie is often very profound. The performance of these heroes on the field made the audience crazy, and then they were forgotten by the audience. Do you want to understand the commitment behind the heroes?
