WHIP IT, Chinese translation of roller youth. It is a very typical youth inspirational movie, based on the original novel of the same name, and a good movie that is moved from the heart. There are too many youth movies, some of them show off their love, and the sinking and disapproval of young people. In the current movie market, there are indeed too many youthful pure love, especially Taiwanese style, and it is boring to watch too much. Change your taste, put aside the bitter and erotic movies, and watch WHIP IT, you will definitely fall in love with it. This is the second Ellen Page movie I've watched, the first Hard Candy, Ellen Page's high intelligence and proficiency in acting, has already been reflected in my mind. She was simply unmatched.

Watch WHIP IT, a film full of beats, visuals, music to a high standard, and the consciousness it carries deep inside. This movie is a must-see, and it's inspiring. The protagonist in the story is a villager from a small town who has been obediently listening to his mother's words since he was a child and participating in what his mother wants her to do. Including participating in beauty pageants, she didn't like it after all, but she didn't know how to tell her mother. She was attacked by some at school, and she was confused when the path of interest was lost. Being young without failure is her short life at the age of seventeen. In the arena, she competed with people older than her, she suffered setbacks and learned to setbacks. At the same time on the playing field, she saw the future and her first love, and gained friendship, trust and self.

In the process of pursuit, we have faced too much, and many times we will give up. In the game, she is willing to do her best, even if she is injured, even if she loses something due to external factors, she is still here. The process of watching the movie is very exciting, and the structure of the movie is quite rich, which can be regarded as the work of a Hollywood movie. In the story, Ellen Page is only 17 years old, curious at the age of 17, youth at the age of 17, willful and rebellious, reminds me of Janis Ian's <<>, Janis Ian's loneliness seems to reflect Ellen Page's liveliness in the movie. Because of love, because of the horizons opened, choose a sport, a life. No one has the right to object, and no one can influence her decision.

Among them, I saw that there is a "strong feminism" behind the film, which is the strength of Girl Power, especially the struggle of women, the ideal of women. Using roller skating to unite a team and make people find themselves.

Ellen Page's eyes, light depression, and the movie. A must. I will recommend this movie to everyone, so that the country of dreams and interests will expand. Go to the farthest depths. Like the phrase "Be your own hero" on the movie poster, you can do it too.
