17-year-old Brisbane is going to a beauty pageant, but she's not happy because it's not the life she wants. On the surface, Bliss, who is a good girl, has a kind of unruly in her heart and hopes to pursue the life she wants. When she met roller skating, she could no longer suppress herself. Of course she was hiding it from her parents, she knew that 200% of them would not agree.
Brisbane's mother, as her husband describes her, "she is a warrior" and a strong woman, so she wants her daughter to be just like herself, so she imposes too many expectations on her daughter, but ignores her daughter itself. This is like many Chinese families. Parents force their children to do things they don't want, thinking that they can make their children rich, but they don't know that the children are not happy. Fortunately, she finally understood, and she said to Bliss: "I can't stop what you want to do." What her daughter hopes most is that she can be proud of her!
I like Brisbane's father, to use the lines from "Modern Family", he's a "cool dad", he'll side with his wife, but when he finds out what his daughter is doing there's nothing wrong with it, even when he When he finds such a daughter happy, he will support her decisively and without hesitation! He said: "I don't care about money, I only care about whether my daughter is happy or not!" Bris is very happy to have such a father, really!
Brisbane's skating teammates, it's cool! On the one hand, they are a group of older girls who are delinquent. In the coach's opinion, they sometimes don't even think about making progress, and don't care about winning or losing, which makes the coach hate it again and again. But the coach also has a way to deal with this group of little hooves that don't save fuel, let them fight hard, it turns out that they are not weak! Their seriousness impresses the coaches! What I like most about them is their optimistic spirit. Maybe they are not good at anything except roller skating, but they are good at finding their own shining points. At the end of the game, they motivate themselves regardless of whether they win or lose.
After watching this movie, my feeling is that although the plot is a bit old-fashioned, there are still some breakthroughs in it, and the theme of roller skating is also full of passion, and the rival dramas of the old and the young are also enjoyable to watch.
The 36-year-old steel Marvin started to learn roller skating at the age of 31, which is inspirational enough in itself. At the age of 31, he finally found what he is good at. Not everyone has the courage to do it. A lot of sweat and hard work. The 17-year-old Brisbane finally found what he wanted, and no longer acted as a good girl against his will, so he had a new-born calf that was not afraid of tigers! They are each other's opponents, and they have learned more from each other. This is the best part of this movie! Among so many American youth inspirational films, it cannot be regarded as standing out, at least it has its own characteristics!
And the little relationship between Bliss and Pash makes me think that Drew is also cute and cute.

    Colby: What's the name of that thing that if I eat it real fast, it's free?

    Bliss Cavendar: That's the Squealer. You have to eat it in three minutes or less.

    Colby: [ponders briefly] Yeah. You bring me a Squealer. And I don't mean Corbi.
