Still watching "Need for Speed" is why.
In addition to speed, running all the way, all kinds of elegant, overtaking, there are old-fashioned plots. But these 130 minutes, I have been unable to contain the excitement. Whether it's Pitt's car rollover on the bridge, Toby's turning around, or Top Gun's funny role in changing various planes in charge of the whole film, or Finney seeing the roar of the engine under the office building and finally "getting out", and Juliet Leah's penetrating understanding, support and love made me feel a burst of energy in addition to the passion brought by speed.
The modified car shop is facing bankruptcy, brothers can encourage each other and say that they can hold on, no matter how they can lose face. But as the boss, how can you think about things so easily? It is more wise to be able to temporarily compromise than to be willing to deceive yourself and say that you are doing well for the so-called dignity.
Watching his best friend die before his eyes, he was wrongfully imprisoned for 2 years, and took the opportunity of parole to avenge his brother. At this time, another woman just appeared, willing to go on an adventure with him. She witnessed their madness along the way, experienced this kind of trustworthy relationship between brothers, and later shared weal and woe. I think it would be hard for Toby to finally get to the game without Julia.
Toby's last act of saving Dylan, I don't judge. Maybe he still can't watch anyone die, whether it's a relative or an enemy, thinking that with one punch, the past grievances can really be wiped away? The reality is often that even if the bad guy survives, he will still do evil, unless one day his own conscience finds out. But this "unless" is only a small possibility.
When the ending song played, I thought everything would be easy. Grievances, hatreds, memories, rankings can all be left behind.
May your love never end and if you need a friend
There's a seat here along side me.
I didn't understand racing before, I thought it was the passion of a lunatic, or a game where rich people are idle and burn money. But as I got older, I began to learn to understand things that I had misunderstood because I didn't understand, including racing.
As mentioned in the film, racing is an art. Even if you are buried on the track, you will be happy. In this life, it is not easy to find a thing that you are passionate about, and to indulge and persevere in it. Every time you modify the car, every time you test drive, every time you run on the track, the car is like your best partner. You cherish its way, which is to spread its performance to the extreme, luck and skill are good enough , and then won the first place.
In this way, honor and dream coexist.
Life has only a few decades, and we have just passed two or three years. If life remains the same, if it is only repeated tens of thousands of times every day, what is the meaning of life?
The hurried steps of the white-collar workers in the office building can't stop the loneliness rushing towards them. Weeks of food and cold single beds have been lying in the refrigerator. It looks like, even the dream is lost, it is too late to be crazy, and it is so old.
How can you be reconciled to aging so plainly?
At least I am not reconciled.
If you have not been vigorous in your life, how can you be willing to go through decades?
I think, in the future F1 competition, I still won't go to cheer; I still can't play the "Need for Speed" game; the car in the video game city is still driving the automatic transmission for fun, at most just holding the steering wheel of the kart again. time, enjoy the pleasure of speed.
Life still has to go on, but starting today, drive in the direction of your heart.
