Based on real events, "Fox Hunter" tells a tragic story: John DuPont, the heir of the DuPont Group, hopes that Olympic gold medalist Mark Schultz will help DuPont Real Estate form a team to participate in the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Mark seized this opportunity and hoped to get out of the shadow of his respected brother Dave.

Under the aura of DuPont Group, Mark increasingly relied on his "beneficiary." At first everything went well, but DuPont's fickle temperament and wrong guidance gradually began to affect Mark's training. Soon, DuPont's weirdness and cruelty weakened Mark's shaky self-esteem. At the same time, DuPont also shifted his interest to Dave. Under his separation, the three finally walked towards the abyss of tragedy. [1] Mark finally left DuPont, who he once considered to be a "mentor" and "father". And one winter eight years later, DuPont shot Dave in front of his wife and DuPont bodyguards. Three bullets ended the life of the former Olympic and world champion. DuPont was arrested and later convicted of third-degree murder and died in prison. He was 72 years old.

    7.5. All I can say is that Steve Carell played well enough to make me hate him. My uncle is so pitiful, he looks like a cute bear when he plays with scumbag. The imitation of the wrestler is in place. This is not an inspirational story. This is the story of a group of athletes raised by autistic patients with psychological deformity. The most terrifying thing is that kind of silent emotional training. Some scenes are quite fun. What you see is not real.

    What a gloomy story, where is the sports theme, it is clearly a love triangle. The so-called sadomasochism, the most fundamental thing is that you love me. The surface is full of fear, but the heart is full of desire. If you get it, throw it away, and if you don't get it, you destroy it.
