The first movie I watched in the new year, I didn't expect to see this "Rocky" in the cinema at first. The series of movies are also full of lengthy, and I'm afraid that like "Transformed Steel", it will become a complete popcorn movie.
After watching this movie, I feel like I'm blown away. Can't blow it up, it's an American hero theme movie, but as a movie with sports, family, and plot labels, you can't expect it to be as reversible and ups and downs as the plots of suspense, sci-fi, and thriller movies.
The story is based on the fact that CREED's career went to a low point and returned to the peak after winning the WBC gold belt, but the whole process is deeper and contains the embodiment of the emotions of people and families. Below I will highlight a few clips that I am impressed by for your reference:
Fragment 1 :
The whole film uses Dolph Lundgren 's revenge as the fuse. Friends who have watched the Rocky series of movies must still remember the battle of the century in Rocky 4. In 1985, it was the era when the US-Soviet bipolar competition for hegemony became more and more intense. The film released at that time in the context of the Cold War had a strong color of the times.
When Lundgren showed his hatred for Rocky for decades under the Rocky statue in Philadelphia, he felt that Rocky took everything from him back then, and she trained her son hard in order to repay one of those years. Vengeance of Arrows.
Fragment two:
At this time, Michael B. Jordan, who was in full swing, won the WBC heavyweight championship, but at the peak of his life, Lundgren and his son angered him by scolding him, and asked Creed to accept the revenge for killing his father. challenge. Apparently Victor is not a vegetarian,
Tyrone disagreed with him for two main reasons: Creed would be hard to win at his current level of play; and he didn't want to see a repeat of the tragedy. At this time, the actor showed that Rocky was a stubborn old man who was not good at words, and he was not even willing to leave Philadelphia, while Creed was still young and a little immature, blinded by hatred.
Fragment three:
An angry Creed decided to fight anyway (for the first time) because of hatred.
And Creed, who just got married at this time, was unexpectedly happy to be a father. Her wife, little Rihanna, objected, and hoped that he would think more about the family. I was a little surprised by the attitude of Credy's mother. She said "you are an adult". Pain, shit and piss pulled him big, but he chose to respect Creed's decision. (If it is in China, it is definitely: my mother beats you to death, you unlucky child)
It is conceivable that in the face of the powerful Victor, without Rocky's support, Creed was stunned and forced to be knocked down... Since then, it may be the biggest ups and downs in Creed's life, losing. He was questioned after losing the match, and he didn't even dare to practice boxing again. Compared with the pain in her body, the pain in her heart made him suffer even more.
I think Rocky was called by his mother to let them go, and Rocky made constructive comments (what is more important to you in the end) to the birth of her daughter, which is the point where Creed matures and the direction of the movie turns. The birth of a new life represents hope, and all this also makes sense for the rematch of the War of the Century to start anew.
Creed fights Victor again, and this time not because of anger and revenge, but because he has to face difficulties, set an example for his family, and do what a boxer should do - win the fight.
Fragment Four
Because Creed's wife Rihanna suffers from congenital deafness or hearing disease, and hereditary, after her daughter was born, after a medical test, it was found that her daughter would have a high probability of hearing impairment, and Creed's tears flowed. Down, Creed seems to care about this matter (not to abandon the baby, but because he is afraid that his daughter will mature like his wife and suffer from the pressure or discrimination of the surrounding public opinion), but in a conversation of Rocky, he asked Creed what would you do? Do you dislike your daughter, then you assume that the disease has been diagnosed, what will you do, Creed first dare not face the reality, and then he understands the truth, for our loved ones, no matter health or disease, we have to do the same thing. Love as much as you can.
When the stubborn old man saw this scene, he also thought of his children and grandchildren. He wanted to make a call but stopped. Looking at the phone book, I also thought of my grandfather. What happened more than 20 years ago is still fresh in my memory, and I was in tears at that time. Fortunately, the left back of Rocky was reunited with his relatives, and everyone was happy. So everyone must cherish the people around you who love you, don’t leave regrets, and don’t waste your energy on meaningless people or things.
Fragment five:
I have to say that the film is quite emotional. Many actors from the old movie "Rocky" all appeared.
Lundgren's girlfriend Brigitte Nielsen also participated in the film. In the film, she is a mercenary bitch who only cares about power and money, and doesn't want to see more of his own flesh and blood, Victor. The composition of the family forms the contrast of the previous post. No matter whether his career and life are highs or lows, he has the company of his lover, the support of his mother, and the guidance of his life mentor Rocky. Different views on life are classified according to different countries and social forms. Sometimes I think about it hahaha. In our country, there will be many people who cannot get married without a house, a car, a loan or food, and what kind of nonsense love and family. It is the superiority and inferiority between the countries, let’s think of it as the gap between the two types of people).
In the end, after Victor was defeated, his mother felt ashamed and left. At this time, Lundgren seemed to think of himself many years ago. He should have woken up at this moment. It made his son a tool for revenge. , let him walk on his old path, growing up in pain and hatred, but at this moment everything is broken, old Ivan threw out the white handkerchief to surrender, and also completed self-redemption.
I haven't written anything for many years. I'm very lazy. After watching this movie, I was a little touched. I decided to write something.
