I know there is some negativity and pessimism in this kind of thinking, and this kind of thinking has actually happened to me more than once. It ran out of trouble when I was in my third year of high school, and made my life extremely depressed and stagnant. At that time my Chinese teacher would give me advice and adjust my mood. But now I'm on my own. So I chose an inspirational movie "Eagle Eddie" when I walked into the theater, and wanted to give myself a dozen blood.
What I didn't expect was that I would walk out of the theater in tears in the end.
In fact, no matter from which point of view, I don't think "Eagle Eddie" is an inspirational movie in the traditional sense - those people who have gone through a lot of hardships, never give up, keep working hard and finally succeed, and get countless flowers and applause movie of. "Eddie the Eagle" is not. The protagonist of the movie, Eddie, is not a successful athlete in the traditional sense. He is highly short-sighted and can hardly see anything after wearing ski goggles. His legs and feet are not good. device. But even so, he still had a dream growing up - to participate in the Olympics. This dream has been deeply embedded in his heart since he was a child. Every time he packs his things and tells his mother that he is going to participate in the Olympics, his mother gives him a cookie box, and then Eddie stands at the bus stop, and his father picks him up. go home. In fact, what a warm family, although there is a father who always stands against it.
Later, Eddie went to Germany to train ski jumping despite his family's objections. In Germany, he meets his coach, Piri, played by "Uncle Wolf" Hugh Jackman. Perry was a former ski jumper and was known to be a gifted kind. For some reason he left ski jumping and is now a snow plow. Eddie started his own ski jumping journey under his guidance. From the adult tournament to the European Tour to the final Olympics, Eddie got a little closer to his dream.
Sitting in a small movie hall with less than ten people, although I was prepared for this bowl of chicken blood, I couldn't help but burst into tears. From Uncle Wolf's appearance, to his 90-meter high stage show, to Eddie's constant competition in the second half, a little bit closer to the Olympics, it is really all tears in the eyes of people like me with low tears.
The appearance of Uncle Wolf was actually a simple act of getting off the snow plow. The camera moved up until Uncle Wolf's face appeared on the screen, and I had pantothenic acid in my nose. He is so hot and sexy. The Wolverine he once played is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, that is the undead wolf, that is the forever superhero in my heart. Uncle Wolf once said something that made fans cry on SDCC: "I have played the legendary role of Wolverine for 16 years, and this is the most exciting part of my life. I think Wolverine is the best comic original character in history. , one of the main reasons I'm here is to thank you guys because you guys are the best fans I could ever hope for as an actor. You are the most loyal, passionate, even domineering honest fans, yes , sometimes we make mistakes, you will tell us, but you are always there for us, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for that. Like I said before, this will be the last time I put on the dewclaws. Finally, finally , One, two. That's it." For a small fan like me, going to SDCC once is like a dream in life. Many times I thought that one day I would go to SDCC to see the actors who I liked throughout my youth chatting and laughing in front of me. I can no longer see Uncle Wolf in future X-Man movies, see him unruly, and see him with a cigar in his mouth. For a long time I couldn't accept anyone else playing Wolverine, and this viewing proved once again that I still care. And "Wolverine 3", which will be released one day later, is Uncle Wolf's curtain call as Wolverine, and it is also our best farewell to him.
Pi Li's 90-meter high-stage show is so handsome, with a cigarette in his mouth, he looks like a very unruly Wolverine. I love the moment when all the actors look high-spirited in the movie, the moment when Piri jumps, he is no longer the usual drunken snow shovel, he is Piri, the most talented ski jumper. The 90-meter platform is the height of the goddess, and Piri is the person who successfully jumped from the 90-meter platform. At that moment, he seemed to be in the arena, so high-spirited and so proud. Piri never cared about the exclamation of the people around him when he landed, because it all seemed so natural, and Eddie under the snowy slope gave birth to infinite yearning for the goddess-like 90-meter platform because of Piri's jump. You can stand on the 90-meter high platform and jump.
The second half of the film begins to depict Eddie's journey into the Olympics, and I can't hold back my tears. Eddie started from an ordinary adult competition and broke the British men's high altitude snow jumping record, dreaming that he could enter the Olympic Games, sitting in the office of the British Olympic Committee and saying that he was the British men's high altitude snow diving record holder. Eddie's face was full of pride at that moment. But the Olympic Committee told him that he had to jump to 60 meters. Eddie's face flashed for a moment of disappointment. He probably didn't understand why he broke the record but couldn't make it to the Olympics. This is how the world is. When you especially want to achieve something, there will always be various difficulties waiting for you. The key is whether you can ignore the voices of the people around you and go on regardless. . It turns out Eddie did it. He jumped and landed again and again from the European Tour, constantly breaking his own record (of course his record itself is very low), and finally entered the Olympic Games. At the Olympics, he had planned to jump on the 70-meter platform, but he announced to the media that he wanted to jump on the 90-meter platform. Everyone thought he was a grandstanding. He said that I just didn't want to be forgotten by everyone so quickly. In the end, although his results were not good enough, he still caused a sensation in the audience. So much so that at the end of the Olympic Games, the speaker said: "There are people flying like eagles in this Olympics." Along the way, although he has not been favored, he has been ridiculed and looked down upon like a fool, but he Still persisted. So sometimes, you don't have to care what others say, as long as you have a dream, as long as you have enough persistence and persistence in your dream, there will be a day when it will come true. It sounds really inspirational and very enthusiastic. And Eddie's experience and this movie also prove to us that life and life need a little inspiration and blood.
Although the whole movie looks like a well-established biopic, due to the special experience of Eddie himself, the director ingeniously added a comedy factor, which made the biopic that was easy to be dull become very exciting and beautiful. Coubertin once said, "The essence of the Olympic Games is not victory but participation, just as the essence of life is not the result but the experience". Sometimes, some things, maybe as long as you work hard and work hard, you can, but the result is not so important. And my entanglements and self-doubts, maybe less so after I watched the movie and wrote this review. Come on, let's do this bowl of chicken blood together, and then live a more active life.
And I would see tears in the cinema, and the reason I couldn't help myself is probably that I would never have the indomitable state and love for dreams like Eddie. I know what kind of person I am, and it is easy for me to fall into deep self-doubt and self-denial in my monotonous life, and then just give up my seemingly magnificent and beautiful dream in the doubt and denial. I am a child who easily loses self-confidence. A little bit of denial and blow from others is so serious to me. I have never been able to laugh at those ridicule and sarcasm like Eddie. And this bowl of chicken blood came at the right time for me personally. At the beginning of my preparation for the postgraduate entrance examination, when I just fell into self-denial, its appearance is tantamount to a good medicine. Healed all my unease and made me feel at peace in the endless monotony of self-study that followed. It tells me a lot of times not to take the final result too seriously, it's not as important as you might think. For what you want to do, just do it and don't care about the outcome. Because as long as you work hard enough and work hard enough, the result will come safely and steadily. So for my postgraduate entrance examination, I also want to say: do your best and obey the destiny. Do what you should do well, and in the end, no matter what the result is, at least you can say that you have a clear conscience. And this is probably enough.
If you've been feeling down lately and feel that life is not fun, then I suggest you go into the theater and support this movie. I believe you will not regret it, because you know that this bowl of chicken blood is really delicious.
Come on, let's make this bowl of chicken blood together.
