When you really face it, the world's problems won't affect you anymore

A small investment movie

After watching it for many years, it makes me remember it for a long time

This film shows the charm of trail running in a more life-like way

Not only cross-country running, but almost all sports have a cohesive force that allows everyone to complete the challenge together

The way the script of this film is arranged is solid and interesting, giving people a feeling of teaming up to fight monsters. There are many contradictions: the estrangement between races, the family conflicts of various characters, the integration between team members, and the departure from home. There are a lot of points that need to be expressed, but the movie has made them clear, all the clues are explained, and all the problems are solved in order, so it will not feel particularly abrupt. When these points are solved wonderfully, the film has a wonderful chemical reaction, which makes people feel very comfortable to watch.

A middle-aged physical education teacher came to a foreign land to start a new life, which is the opportunity for the development of the story of this film. In a town with a large Latino population, dissonance pervades the crowd. Our protagonist is going to let the children participate in the cross-country running training together in the school, and with the help of the cohesion of sports, let everyone really come together. Caring for the neighbors in life and integrating the family into the community. The protagonist succeeds in the end, so often the difficulty of things is not how powerful he is, but whether you really face it.

The reason why I feel more emotional about this film is because everyone can feel a positive force during the running process. We set up a running team to train and complete a competition together. That kind of motivational power can really affect our performance. Life. So every sports movie is an inspiration for life, which is why everyone loves sports movies.

    The inspirational story of American grassroots people's teachers changing their own lives and the lives around them. Compared with "Moneyball", which analyzes complex human nature, this story is more naive and kind, and it also analyzes the current situation of American society more deeply. Although the film is adapted from real people, it does not Dramatic ability is very admirable.
