"A Ball to Fame" series: Inspirational with equal emphasis on visual effects and plot. Wen/Vulcan Because of our dreams, we are alive. We are able to have the courage and strength to support our progress. Because of our dreams, we have never wasted our years and years. ——Vulcan Ji. Inscription.
From the Premier League to the UEFA Champions League to the World Cup, the trilogy series of movies that were planned from the beginning looks coherent and feels very good. The third part I am looking forward to, will San Diego lead Mexico to the World Cup? Judging from the previous two films, the third one is undoubtedly worth looking forward to. The movie itself has a certain degree of continuity in the plot, which paved the way for the enthusiasm of the third part. The entire trilogy series should basically be based on the growth of the Mexican man San Diego in football as the general story development clue running through the three movies. From an unnamed pawn with excellent talent and passion for football to becoming a professional player and leading his team Newcastle United to become the Premier League champion and enter the UEFA Champions League; and the second film transfers from Newcastle United to super luxury at the beginning The battleship Real Madrid, from the reserve team to the bench players repeatedly turned the tide and then to Real Madrid's starting lineup, played the whole game and won the European Champions Cup with one goal and one assist. The general outline before the shooting has actually clarified the main line of the entire trilogy. From unknown pawns to professional players in the Premier League to the main hero in the second European Champions Cup, to the yet-to-be-launched World Cup. When San Diego completed his growth and transformation in his football career, he also completed the entire story development of this series of movies. With its own hard work, inherent talent, perseverance to dreams, and persistence in self-love, San Diego has completed the leap from an unknown person to an international football superstar, and has also completed the most difficult player in his football life. The triple jump. How many things can we see in this series of movies. The first is the independent and continuous storyline in each movie, and then the many active international football superstars. In contrast, the actors are not as dazzling as those football stars. Using non-professional actor football stars to support the performance of the actors in the movie, just as a movie, its performance can be regarded as remarkable. The exquisite CGI computer special effects screen brings together the stadium, the audience, the unparalleled footwork and the arc of the football passing by; football, growth, lost, love, affair and final victory, everything is inspiring. The trilogy that was in the plan from the beginning shouldn't be too bad. Judging from the previous two films that have been released, what is commendable is that each film is an independent film and a continuous continuation. It is independent and serves the overall storyline of the series. Many of the sequels of the series are much better just because they are outstanding at the box office.
As a non-professional fan, the football in this series of movies is still enough to make me excited. I remember this feeling seems to be similar to what I felt when I was watching the World Cup. Perhaps this should also be attributed to the film’s interpretation and interpretation of football matches. A football movie that excites a fan may not be a success of the movie, but can a football movie that excites and touches a non-fans who don't know much about football can explain the success of this series of films in film craftsmanship. Of course, as a movie fan, I may be much more competent than as a fan. If I look at this series of movies purely from the perspective of movies, I might have more say. What I appreciate is the excellent ability of this series of films in overall regulation. I remember when I watched the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy before, I couldn't separate any of the trilogy from the entire series of movies. It was not so much a series of three movies. As for the part, it would be better to say that it is a gorgeous masterpiece spanning three movies. This series of movies is naturally different from "The Lord of the Rings". However, this series is a little better than "The Lord of the Rings" in this respect, even if it is far less than "The Lord of the Rings" in other places. Looking at each part of it separately, it looks more independent than movies like the "Lord of the Rings" series; and it looks more integrated than the separately filmed movies of the "SAW" and "Lamb Doctor" series Feel stronger. This can't help but admire me, after all, this series of movies is so full and excellent in plot.
If the audience is full of strong desire for progress and positive subjective touch after watching a movie, we will always attribute this encouraging movie to an inspirational movie. If the character in the movie grows from an obscure little person to a great person, then we will always habitually attribute this kind of biographical movies to inspirational movies. The films in this series are exactly this kind of encouraging character biographical films; its inspirational meaning seems to be self-evident. Pure inspirational movies do not look bad, at least because of this, we are full of yearning and hope for life, and passionately loving life. But it is easy for us to reject the kind of inspirational movies that are purely preaching; because we walk into the cinema only for entertainment or relaxation, and we don’t want to be put on a heavy moral shackle and heavier when we entertain and relax ourselves. Self-reflection. Film critics with moral advantages once severely condemned my fanatical worship of obscene movies. However, what they may not know is that I actually like watching inspirational movies. As long as the preaching is not so obvious, maybe I can accept it. For example, the preaching in the "A Ball to Fame" series hides the preaching behind the plot and plot of the movie and the growth of the characters. Perhaps, some truths always have to be understood by ourselves before we can be convinced; and the kind is overwhelming. On the contrary, his preaching retreated three feet because it disgusted us. In this respect, the inspiration of this series of films should be considered just right. We can understand a lot of sincerity that makes us positive from the goals that made us excited and the character of San Diego. With some insight, it can be said that such a movie is enough for inspiration.
We are all grown-ups. When we no longer have any desires for our football career, this series of films can at least arouse our enthusiasm and yearning for our own careers, encourage us to be more persistent and work harder to fulfill our dreams. This is a good inspirational movie. And because we are all grown-ups, we no longer want us to sit in the classroom like we did when we were young, listening to the teacher with pious faces on our faces. Positioning inspiration behind the story and characters, it can be said that this is the best of this series of movies or its inspiration. In other words, perhaps it is the plot that is well done. Only by burying the inspiration in such an unobtrusive manner, so that the inspiration will not make us disgusted, its inspiration can be more thorough. The visual effects and plot are good, and it has not forgotten its original inspirational nature. It can be said that this is a good trilogy series. In addition to the two films that have been laid before, I am thinking about how San Diego will play in the World Cup when the third one comes out. I look forward to it because of the continuation of the plot and the escalation of the battle. The invigorating feeling in the audiovisual made me deeply impressed by this series of movies.
