Boxing will never be outdated in Hollywood, although it is difficult to have new ideas, such as "Million Dollar Baby" and "Warrior" are even more rare. Boxing naturally has its own inspirational attributes, and it has elements of action confrontation (more direct conflict than non-contact sports such as track and field swimming, and more intense than physical confrontation projects such as football and basketball), which is also the biggest advantage of boxing movies. Sports alone In terms of competition, chess, card, billiards, bowling, fishing, etc. are not as good as track and field, swimming, rowing, shooting, etc. The latter is not as good as badminton, table tennis, tennis, volleyball, etc., which are confronted across a net, and badminton is not as good as basketball, football, water polo, handball, and rugby. Confrontation, while the fierce collision of boxing racing class even has the most exciting project of life and death test.
I think I looked forward to watching Tyson vs Holyfield, Lewis, Banu, and even Zou Shiming later. Boxing is a sport that needs to make stars, and topicality is an important way to make stars. Mayweather's show of wealth is actually part of the star-making plan of the relevant organizations and forces behind it.
There is nothing new in this story. The family line is a bit sluggish, not as expected as the first love line. Stallone's coach is really not as good as Morgan Freeman. His existence is to sell the feelings of "Rocky".
Personally, I think it would be very interesting to film Tyson's agent, Tang Jin. This guy is like a star and knows how to steal the show. Mendes and La Fatty in football are all agents who steal the show. crocodile.
Some exercises try to be different, after all, pulling tires and lifting dumbbells are all too routine.
Several songs are connected to the whole film, which is a bit like a collection of MVs.
The final battle is not very exciting.
It is said that Ang Lee is filming the story of the former boxing champion. I don't know what kind of experience it will bring to people at that time. If it's just a technical gimmick for "Billy Lynn's Halftime Battle", it's disappointing.
Ryan Coogler, the director of "Creed 1" (producer and screenwriter of "Creed 1"), who was born in 1986, blew up with "Black Panther" and was selected by "Time Magazine" as one of the "Top 100 People in the World in 2018" , albeit a bit overrated (more for political correctness), but still talented.
