The sibling combination of Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bell, two Hollywood superstars, made this movie very appealing at the beginning of its promotion. Relying on the continuous cooperation with Nolan in recent years, Christian Bale, the new generation of "Batman" and the two screen hero images of "John Connor" who has just taken over, can be said to be in the entire world. They are already famous people. Although they are not small, the only thing lacking is the praise of the judges of the American Film Academy. And it just happened that he, who was almost overwhelmingly dominant in the film, won the "Best Supporting Actor" award at the 83rd Oscar in one fell swoop. He, who participated in the awards ceremony with a big beard, excitedly received it. His first figurine. And it is estimated that it is precisely because of this little golden man that he has the opportunity to have a close contact with Chinese movies. "Lao Mouzi" successfully recruited him to the "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" crew to act as the protagonist, and "The film starring: Oscar Best Supporting Actor-Christian Bale" has also become a major publicity and highlight of the film. Let’s talk about Mark Wahlberg, the already-famous handsome guy, who plays the leading role in this film. A film telling the story of a boxer gives him the opportunity to once again show his on the screen to the audience. The chance of a body with extremely developed muscles, the muscles in that body is absolutely in line with the style of a boxer. And for several years in the top ten of the income list of Hollywood male stars, this one alone can very well illustrate his popularity. (Christian Bell, Nicholas Cage, Jim Carrey and other stars failed to make the list) In fact, these two cards are enough for the film to promote.
The story tells the elder brother Dick Ekland, played by Christian Bell, who was once a famous boxer, but fell into depression due to drug addiction. He pinned his boxing dream on his younger brother Mitch Ward, played by Mark Wahlberg. However, Mickey, who is already a construction worker, is no longer brilliant. In order to make his younger brother rise again in the boxing ring, his elder brother almost does everything at all costs. However, the relationship between the brothers has become increasingly tense and intensified until it is completely broken, and his boxing career has also fallen to the bottom. At this juncture, his younger brother’s girlfriend soothed his injured heart, and the deep brotherhood once again connected the brothers together. Perseverance and hard training allowed the brothers to come to the side of the ring again, and they welcome Victory after the hard fight that came.
After watching this film, I feel that there is that kind of lingering shadow of "Rocky". Really, Stallone made six "Rocky" and made a thorough filming of boxing movies, all about boxing ring and boxing. He made almost a full set of hand-related stories. Other directors want to break out of the "Rocky" mode and want to dispel this shadow, it is very difficult!
It's a good movie!
