Funny and inspirational

The story of a woman pretending to be a man is really nothing new to the Chinese. There are not so many young ladies or heroines in the costume film who pretend to be men for the sake of convenience, and I realized that after watching "Soccer Stunner" , The same scenario hypothesis is equally applicable to the modern civilization and the other side of the ocean. Dress up like a man, imitate a man’s talking and demeanor, suppress your voice and make your breasts thicker, an indispensable corset, and other dispensable props. The so-called female pretending to be a man is nothing more than going to the toilet. , Taking a bath, these objective things that require undressing and frank meeting, but often neglected and weakened people’s common sense and subjective judgment in life, making it possible for a woman to pretend to be a man’s impossible task, and then she can still be after she wears a helping hand. Carrying out romantic love grandiosely to the end is so different in ancient and modern times. It is said that martial arts movies are adult fairy tales, so this movie can also be regarded as a fairy tale.
Nevertheless, I am still amazed by Viola's transformation, the contrast is staggering. Although dressed as a girl, she is harsh, rude and boyish, but she is gentle and charming. After the transformation, apart from objective factors such as facial features, skin, and height, she still has traces of girls, but she is almost masculine in all aspects. , And even alienated by the boy as a strange freak because of overcorrection, the heroine's acting skills can be seen. It can be said that the success of this film is not only the screenwriter's ingenious move of Shakespeare's classic plays to modern times, but also the outstanding performance of the heroine.
As a comedy, this film obviously achieved the desired effect. The endless jokes turned my colleagues and I over laughing, and even the laughter passed through the opposite office, attracting some curious eyes. On the other hand, this film is not purely funny for the sake of being funny, although some nonsensical sections do not feel vulgar, more importantly, the film also conveys a kind of inspirational message with meaning, which is similar to many " What is missing and inferior to "Female and Male Transformation".
Remember the scene where the girls fought in the bathroom for the boy, it was a great irony to the so-called lady. Although the demure, dignified, noble and elegant lady image will never go out of fashion, modern society has given it more meaning. Women in the 21st century are no longer attached to men. With the improvement of women’s status, the awareness of equality and freedom of feminism has become an important part of women’s psychology, "how to live true happiness" and "how to pursue the life you want" It is no longer a topic that only men consider and study. Viola completed the seemingly impossible task amidst the opposition and ridicule of others. Joining the men's football team with strength and helping the team defeat the opponents is showing us a typical contemporary that combines beauty and wisdom. Image of young women. Her independence, self-confidence, perseverance, optimism, enterprising, courage and strength not only won her the competition and love, but also won her understanding, recognition, respect and admiration, turning her efforts into charming and proud fruits, and also turning her prejudices. Become narrow, dirty, and spurned garbage.
Of course, don’t forget her brother who deceived her parents and school to go to London for music. This is not a so-called female inspirational film after all. The siblings clearly know what they like and what they want. As long as they identify the goal, they will stick to it, and they will not hesitate to try their best to fight for and fight, and they will not be able to defeat any difficulties or setbacks. This is the passion, rebellion, stubbornness, fearlessness of youth, but also the rare spirit of fighting for dreams. Don't say "can't do it" to yourself. There are too many things in this world that are not "cannot be done", but "unwilling to do" and "dare not to do". Still the old saying: If you think you can, you can!

btw, the kiss game is too disgusting, too bt! Fortunately, it was in the United States!
