Many people of the same age may have seen this movie, the movie trailer. I give this movie a 7.5. What many people don't know is that this movie was actually made by a group of non-professional and fanatical Baptists, who are dedicated and confident in order to accomplish God's mission-- a movie. The male and female protagonists in the story are held by a priest with bald hair and an inexperienced housewife respectively. In addition, in the absence of budget and equipment, they had to make their own or ask for the assistance of volunteers. Whether it is children, housewives, or the elderly, they all put in manpower and effort to help the entire team.
Going back to the movie, there is nothing particularly exaggerated, especially the shocking scenes, like telling a story, telling one thing bit by bit, and the insertion of various music is also reasonable. Compared with those big investments, the movie can be described as small and cannot be smaller, but it has achieved extraordinary success. It was released in more than 400 theaters in the United States, and within 10 days of its premiere, it hit a box office of 2.7 million US dollars, and squeezed into the box office income of the first week. the thirteenth.
Going back to the movie, I came to the death crawling part, which is my favorite part. The coach has been shouting keep going, shouting, shouting, shouting 48 times, walking and shouting. Shouting, knelt down beside him and shouted, keep going, keep going. In this way, the team leader surpassed his own expectations by 50 yards and climbed the entire field (110 yards). From this, we can see that our own potential is actually beyond our imagination.
Through this death crawl, the movie starts slowly to a cheerful rhythm, and things start getting better and better, as if everything was on track. Who knew that after a season of hard work, they failed to enter the semi-finals, but at this time, everything suddenly turned around. The top three were disqualified due to fraud, and they re-entered the finals. At this time, facing the Giants with twice the number, when they dragged the countdown for two seconds, there was a free kick opportunity left. At this time, because the main shooter was injured, only the substitute shooter could be sent. This was a free kick with a full 51 yards, and the substitute shooter had only raised the farthest 35 yards, and had to face the headwind. At this moment, God seemed to appear, and the coach of the other side called a timeout, and the wind suddenly changed from headwind to tailwind. And the wheelchair father of the substitute shooter stood up to cheer up his son, who was a shooter. Here he said something I remember well: "don't touch me, I standing for my son!" In the end they won by one point.
The movie is full of praise to God, and their team's philosophy is to honor God. I am not a believer, I do not believe in God. But a few clips in this movie are enough for me to remember for the rest of my life and illuminate my life when I am confused.
Never give up on yourself, like you don't know your potential, can support you through longer nights, hope everyone can glorify themselves.
