Following in the footsteps of "Creed 1", the second film also came out. The film mainly tells the story of boxing champion Creed who was stunned after facing the challenge of a 'feud', and then overcame the psychological obstacles with the help of his friend Rocky and his relatives. .
The story is a traditional personal heroic plot. Although there is nothing new, the structure of the story is complete, and the excitement of boxing itself is also one of the basic points to arouse the audience's interest. The beginning of the film ushered in a small peak, and Creed's opponent became the new boxing champion, but as far as I am concerned, the starting point of this small peak is slightly higher, and in order not to spend time here, it seems too rushed, winning is too simple and does not set off enthusiasm. Of course, the highlight is the rising part, which is understandable here.
The film revolves around personal spirit and also tells about the importance of family and friendship. Rocky can finally face up to his heart after Creed can really face himself. open door. One of my favorite lines in the film is also what Rocky said to Creed: If you want the enemy to suffer, you must first suffer yourself.
If it is hard to go from nothing, then it is torment to go from nothing. After talking about our male protagonist, let's talk about our villains——Drago and his son. The appearance of villains is always disgusting, but in the end I paid more attention to them than the male lead Creed. The battle for dignity is also the battle for survival. Father Ivan treats his son Victor's training indifferently and harshly. He also frequently brainwashes his son with the mother who left the family and the government that neglected him as a catalyst for revenge. What kind of father is this! But when my father picked up the white cloth of surrender and threw it into the boxing ring without hesitation, it suddenly made me sad. Because the people he wanted to prove have abandoned them again, Victor, who has a sullen face throughout the film, is aggrieved like a child when he sees this scene. Can't help thinking that if the woman who called her mother and the government hadn't treated them so ruthlessly a few years ago, everything would have been different. They are heroes too, and even more solitary heroes.
It's hard to be a hero, it's all about yourself.
