Where is the breakthrough of domestic sports inspirational films?

Compared with the Korean film "National Representative", which also talks about ski jumping, the plot is too simple, and the pursuit of dreams is far from deep enough, and the degree of touching is slightly lower. The most important thing for inspirational films is to be touching. The mentorship between the drunken coach and the half-way ski jumper is not moving enough. And, why not join a love line? Visual impact is okay, but sports without confrontation seem less intense. Although there are Wolverine and the agent boy, it is not enough to call the audience to enter the venue, mainly because the story is too weak. By the way, I have reason to suspect that the screenwriter of this film watched "National Representative", because several comedy elements are too similar, even the scene at the airport to greet the return.
Sports inspirational films will always be an indispensable type of film. Unfortunately, there are not many domestic films every year. Some of them are also the outdated theme. "Broken Wind" failed to lead the trend. In the end, it was also because of the plot. weak. It's not enough to have good looks. Stories, we need stories, learn from Koreans!
PS: Next, there will be a bunch of football-themed domestic films, and some are known as big productions. Don't expect to see a film like "Fame with One Goal", it would be good to have the level of "Kyoto Player". Realistic shooting can only produce the main melody, and you can send it to CCTV6 directly. Even if you want to play comedy, it is only "defensive counterattack" level. If there is an inspirational comedy with special effects like "Shaolin Soccer", I will live and eat my notebook! Speculation with ulterior motives, you still want to expect good things? Do you think you can make a Chinese Super League team that is better than the United States and Barcelona in one year? There are already unfinished films, including "How to Save You, My Soccer Goddess" in Guangzhou (the title of the film is directly copied from Hai Yan's novel). The production company is suspected of illegal fundraising, and the boss has been arrested. You can't make a good movie if you rush for quick success and instant profit! The days of making quick money in the movie business are coming to an end.

Eddie the Eagle quotes

  • Matti Nykänen: You and I... You and I are like one o'clock and eleven o'clock. You see, we are closer to each other than to others. Winning, losing, all that stuff is for the little people. Men like us, we jump to free our souls. We are the only two jumpers with a chance to make history today. If we do less than our best with the whole world watching, it will kill us inside. For all time.

    Eddie Edwards: Good luck, Matti.

  • Official Speaker: [At the Closing Ceremony of the Calgary Olympics] You have broken world records. You have established many of your own personal bests and some of you have even soared like an eagle.
