I really like Grandpa Shi's Rocky

Standard American heroism, limited conflict reversal, basically expected, the boxing part, to be honest, is not outstanding, even reduced points, not only that, as a boxing-themed movie, the film's restoration of professional boxing is obvious Not enough, the details of the game lack novelty, lack of design, the final battle, surprisingly "not bloody", the male protagonist's easily broken and broken ribs, obviously evolved the ability of self-healing in many traumas, the moment of life and death , "Godfather" Rocky's words are always the best painkillers, I just want to say, all this is too TM inspirational, OK! This is the end of the rant, let me say something good, first of all, the 130-minute film is not very procrastinating, and secondly, in addition to the main story, the film spends a lot of effort to describe the boxer's spare time, love, friendship, family, Balabala, and so on. In general, it is difficult for the characters not to be full, such as being overwhelmed when proposing a marriage, taking a pregnancy test, being inhuman on the hospital bed, taking a crying child to an empty boxing gym, the child is quiet, but he is crying, and the game is frustrated After a series of stress reactions and adaptation disorders, all of the above have greatly enriched the character of the male protagonist. The iron man is tender and tearful. At the end of the film, the male protagonist brings his wife and daughter to the cemetery to comfort his father's spirit in the sky. Heart knot (I really like Grandpa Shi's interpretation of the character, obviously the father and son are deeply in love but pretending to be light), old Drago lost the towel, but found himself, and the father and son cried together And the later jogging side by side, isn't it unloading the burden of the past and ushering in a new life? Saying this is the boxing version of "Father and Son" doesn't seem to be wrong, haha.

Creed II quotes

  • Ivan Drago: [Drago sits at a table across from Rocky in the Adrian's restaurant] Because of you... I lose everything. My country. Respect. You ever see stray dogs in the Ukraine? They go for days without food. People spit on them, they are nothing. No home. Only will to survive... to fight. I have son. All he knows...

    [raises his fists]

    Ivan Drago: ... is this.

  • Rocky Balboa: This guy, he's dangerous.

    Adonis Johnson: I'M DANGEROUS!
