The first week of March belongs to Rocky & Creed.

Thanks to my friend for recommending such an inspirational movie to me, capturing a handsome and cute Stallone!

Although Rocky's later films have a slightly routine plot, it is almost a direct reproduction of the development model of the first film.

But this may be the reason why the audience of the previous generation bought it. The first part of "Rocky" bought the audience inside and outside the show with the "heart of a champion". People like comedy and like this story where hard work can be rewarded.

It is not like many later films, which are profound for the sake of profundity, and tragic for the sake of heavyness. Every "Rocky" has given people a satisfactory ending. Except for those irreversible regrets (the departure of the people around him), Rocky really came to the end step by step.

On the other hand, the audience grew up with Rocky. Like Rocky, he may have harvested his own highlights in his prime, but then began to decline. In the second half of the decadent life, "Rocky 5" and even "Rocky 6" 16 years later aroused the passion of this group of people again, ignited the torch that had been extinguished in their hearts for a long time, and regained the feeling they once put down. s things.

Until "Creed" nine years later, Rocky has been telling us this truth simply and rudely - pay will pay .

The plot of "Creed" is almost the same as that of "Rocky". Every time he faces a stronger opponent than himself, he experiences failure, but he does not give up, faces his inner fear, trains hard, and finally succeeds. Apollo's illegitimate son Creed, like Rocky, has a "champion's heart".

And what does this heart represent?

Be true to yourself, you are afraid to be afraid, but you will face it bravely.

Responsibility to your family, try to provide them with a better life, and if you can't, make them as happy as possible.

Caring for friends, pulling them when they make unfavorable decisions, and being there for them when they need them.

There are also some strangers, the cute Rocky will worry about the little girl learning from the street gangsters, even if he is doing the work of the mafia thugs, he is kind and kind to people.

The kind and sincere Rocky is the image of the boxing champion in the hearts of Philadelphia and the entire American public.

Finally, to repeat, witnessing the birth of a champion is a very exciting thing, but watching him grow old and the hero twilight is always painful. Stallone's persistence in "Rocky" is to accomplish such a thing, that is, you see the ending of those heroes, after the prince and princess are together, they are indeed happy for a lifetime.

They've been fighting and preparing to fight their whole lives, they haven't relaxed for long, they've been doing what they choose and what they like.

Aging can't be changed, but there is no need to be too sorry for it. Rocky can do it, and so can we.
