After watching it, I didn't feel as good as "Wrestling, Dad", I thought about why I felt this way, and sorted it out:
1. The plot jumps slightly
In "Wrestling", the heroine's progress is: discovering talent → hard training → encountering setbacks → insisting on training → small test → encountering setbacks again → success
In "Mysterious Superstar", the heroine's progress is as follows: show talent → become an Internet celebrity → encounter setbacks → recorded songs are recognized by the mainstream → setbacks again → self-achievement and mother's redemption
In terms of popularity, in "Mysterious Superstar", the heroine used the first two steps to complete all the plots of "Wrestling".
Maybe at my age, it's really hard to believe that overnight fame is achieved just by hobby talent alone. We only saw that she loved music since she was a child, sang a song on the train, and then posted a video and it became popular. What about practice? study? How to break through from the boring search? On the other hand, the film is not a cartoon, unlike "Dream Travel", which has already drawn a distance in advance, and the presentation of the Indian family structure is more realistic, which makes it feel a bit divided.
"Talent is like a bubble in a soda, it can't be stopped from going up." It sounds really inspirational, but if you look back on becoming famous in one fell swoop, or someone used capital to smash marketing, smash the training environment, or they worked very hard To fight for that small probability event, what you did not pay, naturally someone else has to bear it for you. I think there is no such thing as a hobby that can be a blockbuster. Even if we see someone become popular, there must be a lot of other things behind him to increase the probability.
2. The contrast is slightly larger
On the one hand, it is easy to become famous, and on the other hand, it is the powerless resistance to his father (before the heroine's mother made a big move, the heroine still chose to go abroad). The contrast is really big. I don’t know if it’s because of the different national conditions. I think it stands to reason that the former is more difficult than the latter. Since we have the influence of public opinion, we should make full use of it instead of covering it up. So that part also feels a little split.
When it comes to female independence, though, Mystery Superstar is sharper and more straightforward than The Wrestling.
Start with financial independence. If you don't pay, someone will take care of it for you.
