I have always liked Jake Gyllenhaal's movies very much. This movie was only seen by accident, and it was entirely for the male lead. Of course his films are of excellent quality. In this film, the male lead shows the irritability of a boxer and the boxer's characteristic use of force to solve problems rather than brains. Because of being provoked by his opponent, his wife was accidentally shot to death, and the male protagonist also fell into a low point in his life. He was suspended for attacking the referee inadvertently, and was forcibly separated from his daughter because of his irritability. Looking for a job but being told that he can only be a cleaner, of course, as a shining boxer, he couldn't stand it. He left angrily, and then remembered his daughter and persisted. His temper gradually became gentler. And the daughter has suffered so much, and it is difficult to control her emotions, blaming it all on her father, and refusing to see her father. The turning point of all this came from an irregular small game, which made the previous coach optimistic about him again, and let him get revenge faster through other means. This game is to punish the wicked who escape the law through their own power. I can't describe that match in words, but it made my blood boil. As a person who is not interested in boxing at all, it also fluctuates unexpectedly with the development of the movie. Everyone in this world has unlimited power. And what can really make proud people bow their heads must be love.
