[Replay of old movies] The movie that tricked me out of the most bodily fluids at a time

Today I want to share with you the 2011 movie "Warrior". This is a movie that doesn't waste any second and doesn't actively distribute male hormones, open your mouth and punch, punch and hit, all the way to the end, and then inexplicably make countless old men cry like a spell. The feelings between men are portrayed as thin as silk, and a needle eye can pass through the minds of all three men. "Warrior", the plot of this movie must not be the most reasonable, it must not be dripping, but the director is too skillful in emotional scheduling, so you have no time to question the credibility of the plot, and you have become the protagonist brother. Two believers. After the boxing match officially started, the rhythm has formed a unique rhythm, which brings you into a state of excitement. Once a person enters this state, the most annoying thing is that he is always agitated, especially prone to emotional ups and downs? Damn, my eyes accidentally squeezed out body fluid three times when watching this film.

The movie tells the story of a broken family who once again found a connection because of an MMA mixed martial arts competition.

The male protagonist is a venom baby that no one does not love. Tom Hardy and Tang Lao wet play the roles of the younger brother in the movie. His name is Tommy. He is a Marine with a very talented fighting talent. After watching "Warriors", you will feel that playing the counselor in "Venom" is really too wronged. Tang Laoshi, who has a back and a back, actually doesn't need any extraterrestrials at all, it's enough to be frightening.

Another male protagonist, actor named Joel Edgerton, plays Tommy's brother, Brandon in the movie. A physics teacher who re-entered the fighting arena under pressure from life. This actor is actually a familiar face. He has appeared in many movies such as "Star Wars 3", "Pharaohs and the Gods", "The Great Gatsby", etc. He has good acting skills, but unfortunately he has never been popular.

Another crucial role in the movie is Tommy and Brandon’s father. The actor is named Nick Knott. He is not very familiar. With the movie "Warrior", he won an Oscar nomination for best supporting actor. His name was also used in other series of awards that year. The interpretation of the father's role in the movie is indeed worthy of the recognition given to him by so many awards, depicting the image of an old father who has scattered, fell into the abyss, and prayed for salvation.

The three men who were stunned in boxing, however, were all aggrieved.

Brother aggrieved: Because everyone in the world abandoned him. The drunk father forced his mother away, and after cruelly abandoning, there was no contact. When his mother ran away, he was the only one who depended on his mother, and his brother chose to stay with his father and parted ways with him. When Tommy and his comrades fought bloody battles on the battlefield, the country abandoned them and dropped bombs in their direction without any explanation. Even Tommy's best brother died in the plane bombing and left himself. So Tommy felt that he had nothing, and the whole world had abandoned himself.

Brother's grievance: Because no one has ever been optimistic about him. The opponent disliked him and said that he was going to teach himself as a middle school teacher a good lesson; the game commentator disregarded him, saying that he was a little goldfish that fell into a school of sharks, and specially took out a goldfish to mock him; the coach did not look at him He thought that he was KO 5 seconds after entering the cage. It was almost the same to form a children's band; his wife was not optimistic about him, thinking that he was either going to be beaten or disabled, and he could not afford the medical expenses. What made him most embarrassed was that even his father was not optimistic about him, and he only took care of training Tommy since he was a child, even if Tommy had left, he never thought of himself.

Father's grievance: No one wants to give him a chance to repent. Although he gave up the bad habit of alcoholism, a thousand days of persistence has been accomplished. I thought that Tommy's appearance was to reassure myself, but instead he poured cold water on him to remind him of the big mistake he had made. Can't make up. Even if you erase the edges and corners, try to please in a low voice, and pray for forgiveness, the brothers cannot change their minds. After finally gathering the courage to try to repair the relationship, it was finally extinguished by repeated cynicism. Can only pick up the wine glass again, live alone in the story of Moby Dick, and taste the bitter fruit of self-made.

Three men, one ring, a good show. I have never seen a movie before "Warrior" depicting the emotions between men so delicately. Cut the chaotic brotherhood, the scarred father and son relationship. The emotional drama of the whole movie can be summed up in five words simply-abuse, abuse, abuse. Every time the father and son met, the opponent scene was stabbing each other's heart with a knife. The younger brother stabs the father, the younger brother stabs the elder brother, the older brother stabs the younger brother, and the older brother stabs the father. This plot is a hundred times more torturous than the bitter love drama in Gongdou drama. Even the way the brothers repaired their relationship was carried out in the octagonal cage with the pain of a punch. The state of the fighting scene between the two brothers was exactly the same as the game commentary described-the mothers quickly put away the vases at home because the boys were about to start fighting again. Tommy and Brandon, the two boys who have experienced thousands of sails for a long time, tore their old faces for what they lost, and raised their fists desperately to vent their breath, especially Tommy, who has not yet gotten a family and established a family, provokes himself with small gestures. His brother, ignoring the rules, slammed into Brandon's face with an angry blow. Sometimes it was true that the closer he was facing, the more unscrupulous he would be to hurt him. And Brandon, facing the flabby Tommy, was both angry and guilty. The anger is because he believes that his brother has no right to conceal the news of his mother’s dying life, and he did not even have the opportunity to say goodbye to his mother. The guilt is because it was his own choice that caused the fate of his mother and brother to be displaced, which caused Tommy. The hostility of the whole body now,

At the end of the fight, this is not a fist-to-fist contest, but a struggle between forgiveness and forgiveness. It was really too cruel, and in the end I tortured and cried. Korean dramas dare not shoot so abusively.

The subject matter of the movie is actually not pleasing, and sports inspiration seems to have been unable to set off a bloody storm in China. To be honest, it is difficult to find a more influential sports film in China than "Women's Basketball No. 5". Movies that talk about fighting skills are even more unwelcome. Because of too many brutal and bloody shots and unfamiliarity with the rules of the game. Fighting movies are easily alienated.

In 2013, a film about MMA mixed martial arts was finally released-"Guild Wars". Even with the help of the actor Zhang Jiahui and the hero Peng Yuyan, it did not push "Guild Wars" to the position of the box office myth, even the current box office champions. no. They are also directed by Lin Chaoxian. "Guild Wars" has a box office of 118 million, and the sports film "Broken Wind" has a box office of 145 million. The main melody movie "Operation Mekong" reached 1.184 billion at the box office, and "Operation Red Sea" reached 3.648 billion. Sports movies in China seem to have no good soil for rooting and sprouting. Perhaps this has something to do with the conservative status quo of the nationwide system of sports in China. Chinese sports are still a long way from European and American countries on the road to commercialization, so sports movies that are affected by it also cover up different paths to the same goal. status. In fact, I am looking forward to the sports biopic "Li Na" prepared by Director Chen Kexin. Li Na has always been a highly controversial and topical sports star. If you want to make movies from her, you don't need to worry about the lack of drama. More importantly, Li Na is taking a road of self-seeking commercialization that is completely contrary to the national system. Whether Director Chen Kexin will come to discuss this topic is very exciting.

Going back to fighting movies, this genre is abroad, but it is a movie genre that is easier to shine. Right in front of my eyes is "Wrestling, Dad", an Indian movie about wrestling. After its release, its reputation has exploded. It is so valuable that it is highly praised in China.

There are countless fighting movies that are favored by Oscars, such as "Million Dollar Baby" which tells the story of female boxers in 2004, and "Rocky" written and played by Stallone in 1976. They have won the best Oscars. Laurel wreath.

And films like "Fighter", "Angry Bull", "Boxing King Ali", "Tekken Man" and "Wrestler" have also handed over good score cards at the Oscars. Although "Warrior" did not win many awards in the Oscars, it also got a high score of 8.2 on the IMDB score.

Fighting movies often discuss the level of absolute control of the human mind and body at the end. This kind of topic that is very close to the true nature of human beings is very philosophical, and it is easy to sublimate some simple but particularly true and transparent themes. In fact, so many things that a person has experienced in his entire life are not brought by life or death, and only his own spirit and body are what he really owns. If you can let go of the guard against the fact that movies are a fighting type, and open your arms to accommodate them, you will find that they are often more profound than most movies. It's not a model drama in our stereotype that purely fights and kills, and only relies on motion visual effects to catch people's attention.

"Warrior" is such a severely inconsistent movie. Just like the protagonist's brother Tommy, there are countless thoughts that I see especially pity hidden under the rough and bold appearance.

But the movie is a fighting movie after all, and it is not appropriate to not talk about the action at all. My feeling for the action scene of "Warrior" is like watching a hearty, unscrupulous sex. The right literary play in the first half brought the father and son into the Colosseum without any muddle, and then the two brothers played alternately. One moment it burst, another moment it was dying and dying. People can't stop at all. If you just watch the excitement, the action scenes of "Warrior" will not let you down. But there are actually many topics that can be said about action dramas, many of which are more than just a lively topic. Later we will talk about the keyword that frequently appears in the movie-MMA.

OK, so far, I guess you have guessed the trend of the main storyline of the movie. The two brothers are going to have an earth-shattering duel in this octagonal cage. And I also want to tell you that the stage where the brothers meet is the final, and there is no suspense like the Chinese Olympic Table Tennis Team.

Well, if you want to complain about the plot of "Warrior", you can let it go now. Two non-professional MMA players made it to the finals at random. According to logic, this wave of people should not believe that Sicong's IG team won the League of Legends championship for China without precedent. "Consistent with common sense" may be the minimum requirement for judging a movie, but it is absolutely impossible for people to decide whether or not to watch a movie. I can guarantee that there will be more people who want to see "not in line with common sense" than people who want to see "in line with common sense." If you want to watch things that are "in line with common sense", then why bother to watch movies, why bother to watch TV shows, why bother to read novels, why bother to read cartoons, read textbooks to learn Newton's Three Laws, that is the most common sense.

What's more, the so-called "unreasonable" of this so-called plot should be called "unexpected" from the text, and then I will analyze with you why the main plot of "Warrior" is actually "reasonable." middle".

Why can the brothers make it to the finals without any risk?

First of all, let's look at the competition system. There are four games in two nights, with 16 players competing for the first place. That is to say, there are 16 players in total, two by two PK, one round will determine the outcome. A player can play up to four games, and an inadvertent error can completely knock the master out. Therefore, there is a lot of uncertainty, and everyone has a chance to win.

Then look at the question of the qualifications of the two brothers, the movie also explains. The person who signed up for them should be someone who has a certain right to speak in the MMA circle, and there are already professional players who are ready to participate. The elder brother is the seed player who replaced the coach’s injury, and the younger brother opened a back door through the mad dog’s coach, but I believe that the video of Tommy beating the mad dog circulated on the Internet must have provided him with a lot of convenience for registration.

Let's see if they have any motivation to participate. Not to mention.

Tommy lost his best friend in the battle, so he volunteered to take care of the widow of his comrades. Participating in the competition is to win high prizes to support the widow’s family.

And Brandon, an American house slave with a heavy mortgage on his back, has been unable to repay the bank loan on time due to her daughter’s congenital heart disease and the bank will confiscate their house. Just like the coach inspired him, don’t forget why you came to the game. If you don’t win the game, you will have no home.

And the prize money of the competition is as high as 5 million US dollars, which is more than 30 million yuan converted into RMB. For the two brothers, it is definitely a good reason to fight for this.

The most important thing is the issue of strength.

Look at my brother Tommy first.

The first time Tommy punched it, he was easily killed. He is quite famous in the fighting circle and has already decided to participate in the Spartan competition. There are three important additions to this person's follow-up, which will not appear too pale.

First, Tommy is a Marine, and his physical fitness, stamina, and close hand-to-hand skills can definitely be guaranteed under the training of the army. Not to mention that the director also gave Tommy a skill to tear tanks.

Second, Tommy was already a talented wrestler in high school, and his record was amazing, never losing. The goal is to match the 1400 unbeaten record of the Greek Saint Eugenis. This tells the audience that Tang Lao wet is a ruthless character who has become accustomed to being a young man.

Third, Tommy invited his father to be his coach. From the film’s account, his father used to be a very good coach and player, and the father and son had the basis for cooperation at the earliest, regardless of relationship issues. , Purely speaking of training, their efficiency should be very high.

So according to the setting of the story, it is completely reasonable for Tommy to enter the finals.

Let’s analyze the last elder brother Brandon who made it to the final without any reason. To be honest, there is actually a lot of foreshadowing in the movie. I don’t know why many people just turn a blind eye:

First, my brother has played UFC. Although his record is average, he has at least eaten pork and watched pigs run. And from the conversation between him and the coach, Brandon has always been a boxer who would rather die than admit defeat. He has a firm will. The coach is not afraid of him losing, but he is stuck in a cage for fear that he will not win.

Second, during the entire eight weeks of preparations, Brandon's condition has been improved through training. At the beginning of physical training, he ran at the end, and after running, he has reached the first position. As a sparring partner, in training against the coach's seed players, he also beat the opponent with a lock and squeeze.

Third, in addition to the usual training, Brandon has been playing black boxing in order to support his family, which is equivalent to he is always in actual combat training, which is much more helpful to the game than the training effect in the gym.

Fourth, Brandon is good at ground skills and almost always uses the same trick to knock down opponents. This requires some knowledge of fighting. Ground fighting is a very important part of MMA. This style of play is recognized as the strongest heads-up technique. When a person is fixed on the ground by the back joint, he quickly loses the ability to resist. This is equivalent to using torture on a person-a tiger stool. Who can stand it? But there is one thing to say, the ground skills are very good, and more than one hit will not work. When fighting in groups, lying on the ground and fighting with one of the enemies, isn't it just looking for death? The point is, it still looks strange.

Fifth, one point that cannot be ignored is that Brandon has a particularly reliable coach. A very mindful coach who can use classical music to stabilize players' emotions off the court, and he can calmly observe the battle and arrange effective tactics and strategies in a timely manner. There is also a sharp mouth to motivate his players all the time.

Who said it's impossible for my brother to make it to the finals? Did all the above bedding be fed to the dog? Not to mention packing tickets, there is always the possibility of entering the finals. Is it possible that the winner of the gold belt must be set to be satisfied?

Don't believe it. Middle school teachers played UFC and won championships. There was a precedent. In 2005, Rich Franklin, a former high school math teacher, nicknamed ACE, defeated the former champion and reached the middleweight championship. Brandon in the movie was probably created based on Rich Franklin.

In the finals of the two brothers meeting, there may be some suspicions of blood, but the most important thing is to enjoy it. The two were both out of the first round. Isn't it embarrassing to watch?

Alright. Talking about "Warriors" but not talking about MMA and the topic of fighting is absolutely unreasonable. Although people who don't know anything about fighting, watching "Warrior" will not have any obstacles. But if you are really confused about what is MMA, what is UFC, and what is Sparta, then you watch the World Cup football match, but you don’t know what is offside. You can still tell others you are watching. , But there is no soul in that kind of look.

If you have already seen this, you might as well take a look at literacy and see what MMA is.

MMA is the English abbreviation of mixed martial arts. It is called "Mixed Fighting" or "Mixed Fighting" in Chinese. It is a form of fighting that can be contested. Boxing, judo, and wrestling are a category that has certain rules. , There are clear criteria for winning or losing. The biggest feature of the integrated fighting game is that it allows players to use the techniques of various fighting genres, including but not limited to boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, wrestling, karate, Judo, Sanda, Jeet Kune Do, etc., to make an inappropriate analogy , MMA is like the Street Fighter we used to play, KOF King of Fighters, there are some karate, some boxing, some Muay Thai, some Jiu-Jitsu, everyone's fighting genre is different, but the standard of victory and defeat is the same.

There is a big difference between the rules of integrated martial arts and the rules of boxing that we are more familiar with. Although they are all shirtless, don’t make a mistake, otherwise you will feel very helpless when watching MMA. Why are they the same? He kicked someone up and fouled, but the referee repeatedly indulged him and turned a blind eye when he smashed his face on someone else. In the end, it was not too messy, and both were entangled and spread out on the ground like a rogue. These are actually allowed in mixed martial arts. Including the elbows and knees, which we consider to be very dangerous, are also allowed as attack sites. Throwing skills, ground skills, and locking skills are also commonplace in MMA. As long as it is within the scope permitted by the rules, there are no restrictions on the forms of combat.

In addition to the way of attack, another big difference between mixed martial arts and boxing is the difference in winning rules. The most common way to determine a victory in boxing is to knock down a KO, then count down to determine the loss, or look at the points of the final two sides. The main way to win in mixed martial arts is to see whether the opponent surrenders or not. That is, in the movie, we see players tapping the floor or tapping their opponent's body. There is also the judgment of the referee or medical officer on whether the player can continue the game, and the referee can directly terminate the game. Although the mixed martial arts game looks bloody and brutal, the fatality rate of the game is lower than that of boxing. The serious injury in boxing is often not when the fighter is knocked down for the first time, but when the fighter gets up and is knocked down again. Because boxing has a countdown, the boxers are all too bad, and they feel good about themselves that they can compete, but in fact they are already delirious. It is very dangerous to continue the game under such circumstances. In mixed martial arts, if the players are dizzy, the referee may have terminated the game. In addition, confession is rarely seen in boxing matches. It does not mean that boxers are more sturdy than MMA athletes, but the injuries caused by boxing are often explosive injuries, and the range of attacks that can be attacked is limited, and hitting the head can get higher. Everyone likes to slap their faces, and if they hit the middle of the door with a heavy punch, they don’t even have the chance to admit defeat, and they fall in an instant.

There are various styles of fighting in MMA, and some of them are not based on the concept of martial arts, such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which is used by his brother Brandon in the movie. Jiu-Jitsu emphasizes the concept of surpassing rigidity by softness, subduing the opponent and controlling the opponent as the martial arts philosophy. This style of play does not have too much explosive damage, but it will continue to cause damage. If the opponent feels exhausted, or the pain is too great, or when the unlocking is hopeless, they may choose to surrender and end the game. Therefore, there is only one death case in the history of mixed martial arts, while professional boxing has an average of 3 death cases every year.

Regarding mixed martial arts, there is actually one more thing that we Chinese are proud of. Many people now say that Bruce Lee is the father of mixed martial arts, because Bruce Lee proposed very early on that martial arts in the world should learn from the best, blend with each other, and don't stick to martial arts. This coincides with MMA's martial arts philosophy. And Bruce Lee not only had this idea, he also put it into action to promote the development of martial arts in the world. The Jeet Kune Do that he created by himself is a fighting technique that combines multiple martial arts genres, and he also proposed no The concept of limiting martial arts-the inability is the law, and the infinity is the finite. The fight between Bruce Lee and Sammo Hung in the movie "Dragon Fighting Tiger Fighting" looks quite modern MMA mixed martial arts flavor. Including the finger-pointing gloves worn by Bruce Lee in the movie, they are now standard in mixed martial arts. As a Chinese, I discovered that MMA was originally a sport invented by the Chinese, and I would feel much more cordial after watching the game. But here I have to dispel a rumor. Although Bruce Lee has an indissoluble bond with MMA, or is the enlightenment of MMA concept, he is not a MMA competition directly created by him. MMA has entered everyone’s attention as an official posture. Actually because of the UFC. The reason why there is now a saying that "Bruce Lee is the father of mixed martial arts" is because of an interview with UFC President Bai Dana. He publicly expressed his fate with Chinese martial arts and claimed that Bruce Lee was the originator of mixed martial arts. However, at the time the UFC tournament was fighting for the Chinese market, so his remarks may have some commercial considerations.

So the question is, what exactly is UFC, and what does it have to do with UFO? Do you remember what Brandon said when he was comforting his wife in the movie? He said that black punching can't do anything, because his opponent only watches the UFC every day, not every day he plays UFC. The so-called UFC is the English abbreviation of Ultimate Fighting Championship, which means the ultimate fighting championship in Chinese. It is currently the world's top and largest professional MMA (Mixed Fighting) event. The octagonal cage ring is a typical symbol of UFC. If MMA is basketball, then UFC is NBA, one is sports type and the other is competition. The fighting game in the main plot of the movie-Sparta, is another fictitious MMA game. The system is different from the UFC and the fighting rules are almost the same.

When it comes to UFC, one has to mention the famous fighting family-the Gracie family. The Gracie Jiu-Jitsu created by the Gracie family is the prototype of the most popular Jiu-Jitsu style in all kinds of mixed martial arts competitions we see now. It was Hoyen Gracie of the Gracie family who founded the first UFC competition in history together with advertiser Art David in 1993. At that time, his idea was very simple, just to let everyone know what fighting technique is the best in the world. Therefore, the competition does not impose any restrictions on the genres of martial arts, and even the weight is not restricted at the earliest, and the time is not restricted. It is very sturdy. Because Hoyen believes that no rules are the greatest fairness, and truly effective fighting skills can surpass physical fitness. Royce, the younger brother of Hoyen, who is also the Gracie family, defeated Dan Servern, an American Olympic wrestler who is 30 kilograms heavier than himself. His concept is very close to the concept of martial arts written by Mr. Jin Yong, so the earliest UFC competition can also be understood as the Western Huashan Lunjian. You can fight as long as you have a species.

UFC did not undergo major changes until the fourth edition. The final at that time was just mentioned above, Royce was a classic battle with a small Boda. At that time, the competition was not for money, but to promote Jiu-Jitsu, so the funds were very tight. The satellite signal purchased by Hoyen was only 2 hours, and there was no time limit for their competition. In the final final, the two sides fought fiercely for 15 minutes to decide the winner, but when the game started, only the last 10 minutes of satellite signal time remained. So all the spectators at that time didn't even see the final result of the game, and the game was cut off.

This triggered a series of chain reactions, and we are sure to be on the hot search now. At that time, the audience who watched the first half of the game went crazy and wanted to know the final result, so they inquired about the news of the game. From only a few people, the UFC game suddenly became an online celebrity game spread by word of mouth. The good part is that the UFC market opened up all at once. The bad part is that this means that the subsequent games must be time limited, and time limitation means that there will be wins and losses when the time is up, which must introduce scores. System, which in turn means that there must be grading and clear rules. This system later paved the way for the commercialization of UFC, but it went against Hoyen Gracie's original intention. So he finally withdrew from the promotion of UFC and sold it to SEG.

Now that Jiu-Jitsu is mentioned, let's talk about Jiu-Jitsu again. How powerful is Jiu-Jitsu? Is there any movie that Brandon is as effective as it is? Give a practical example. In the first UFC competition, Royce Gracie played on Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Among the eight contestants, he was the thinnest. One, facing the good players of various genres, and his record is three wins, and it took less than 5 minutes to win the championship, which surprised everyone. Perhaps it was a fluke in the first session, and the crowd was not large, but after the following UFC has gained a certain degree of popularity, Royce can still win the championship, which shows that Jiu-Jitsu does have two brushes.

The characteristics of close hand-to-hand combat in Jiu-Jitsu make some fighting techniques that require space to perform their fists completely dumb. Although I don't know how to fight, I did fight when I was a kid. At that time, I had nothing else but one move. I never fisted or kicked the foot or anything. When I went up, I used my arm to encircle the opponent’s head and drag it into my arms. Whenever I move down, the person who fights with you instantly loses combat power. It has no relationship with Jiu-Jitsu for half a dime, but it is really easy to get close in one-on-one situations.

Of course, the current mixed martial arts players are not as monotonous as they used to be, and there will be no situations in which people are not recruited when they see Jiu-Jitsu. Everyone has studied this style of play and knows how to restrain it. Today's mixed martial arts fighters generally have to be able to master at least two or more types of fighting skills. Basically, you must be able to master jiu-jitsu or other ground skills.

Because the talk is mainly around the movie "Warrior", so the long time-consuming Jiu-Jitsu in the movie also talks a few more words. In fact, MMA is not always as rough as fighting on the ground. There are also beautiful standing skills, like boxing, Muay Thai, and Sanda skills shown in movies. Regardless of practicality, standing skills are enjoyable. It is indeed much more gorgeous than ground technology. In some movies, the movement of stepping on a person’s legs to climb to the head and then turning 360 degrees to knock the person down to control the joints does not exist in actual combat. They are all technical movements that can only be made by people with good cooperation. It looks a bit like a jiu-jitsu action, but strictly speaking it cannot be called a fighting, it is acrobatics.

Let’s just say so much about fighting. In fact, I don’t know much about it. I know the fur in some furs. The more I say it, the more mistakes I make. If you are interested, you can find the feeling by watching a few real games directly on the Internet.

Finally, I want to click on the question. The movie's name is "Warriors". Warriors-warriors for those who know they can't do. The film's interpretation of the word warrior has a sense of hierarchy. The director explored this theme from three perspectives: father and son.

Is his father a warrior? Maybe not, at least not before. But he hopes he is, and his two sons are. The old man is a big fan of audiobooks in movies and listens to Himalayas every day. The novel he heard was called "Moby Dick", which has a pivotal position in the history of Western literature and is recognized as one of the most classic epic literary works. The literary status of the author Herman Melville is not under the celebrities such as Mark Twain and Hemingway. "Moby Dick" is an inspiring and almost crazy story about a warrior. "Moby Dick" tells the story of Captain Ahab who was bitten off a leg by the ferocious and clever beluga Moby Dick during a whaling process. In order to chase Moby Dick, his boat traveled almost all over the world. The story of the end of the sea with the beluga. From the point of view of the movie text, the novel "Moby Dick" has made a heavy annotation to the title of the movie "Warrior". I believe my father should have seen the shadow of Captain Ahab on the brothers in the end.

Brother Brandon, isn't he a warrior? He is the one who interprets this directly and personally. In the whole movie, his brother is the one who has been beaten the most, and the one who is least favored by others, but he always held his breath and didn't give up hope. Give up on himself, and finally succeeded in reaching the finals. Knowing what to do, Brandon is a veritable warrior.

Is that brother Tommy a warrior? The audience on the field thought he was a warrior, the Marines thought he was a warrior, the fans in the training hall thought he was a warrior, and the widow of a good brother thought he was a warrior, but Tommy himself thought he was not a warrior. In his own eyes, he is a deserter on the battlefield, a traitor to his family, and a stumbling block to his brothers. On the surface, the whole world owes Tommy, but Tommy actually has high demands on himself, rather than venting his inner dissatisfaction. , To get confession from others, what he actually yearns for more-is to be forgiven. And this heart lock, there is only one key that can open it-to forgive. Use forgiveness to be forgiven. When seeing the old father who was drunk with nonsense and brandishing the bottle, Tommy took the bottle and let his father lie in his arms. The hard-hearted man didn't say much, but I knew his heart had melted. After that, the hearts of the audience are also melted. When the last two brothers hugged each other, Tommy did not expect to have the opportunity to hear his brother's voice at such a close distance in many years, and when he heard his brother comforting himself like he did when he was a child, it's okay, I love you. At this time, he slapped his brother on the shoulder, which had nothing to do with the game. He was not even forgiving his brother, but at the same time he forgave the devastated himself.

Is a man who dared to shake hands and make peace with his former self, is he considered a warrior? The answer is actually in our hearts.
