First, Brendan played several roles.
1.a) Cinderella Man. A man at the trough of his career, for the sake of his family's livelihood, returned to the ring, despite starvation and fractures, he miraculously defeated an invincible opponent.
In this film, Brendan has several roles, but he still can't stop the danger of the house being forcibly repossessed. In the end, he had to return to the fighting ring, and finally defeated the legendary Koba and his brother who was even more ruthless by Koba.
Personally, I believe that Brendan's inability to repay the mortgage is the result of overestimating his own economic strength. Of course, the bank is also responsible for lending indiscriminately. All in all, in terms of portraying characters struggling in difficult times, this film is a few steps behind Cinderella Man. And for Brendan's few games, the two games with Koba and his younger brother, the camera rendering didn't convince me, and it wasn't as nervous as the first game.
1.b) The FIghter. He has been living in the shadow of his brother and has not received the attention of his family, especially his mother, who is also a manager. Later, he broke with his brother and mother. After a downturn, rebuild rapport with your family and win games.
From the dialogue in this film, it can be seen that he and his younger brother were trained by their father since childhood, but because the younger brother is better, they have not been paid attention to by their father. Later, for some reason, he did not run away with his mother and younger brother, so he broke with his younger brother and became a stranger. But after staying, he still failed to gain confidence from his father, and finally broke with his father, never getting along with him. At the end of the film, the relationship with his father and younger brother took a turn for the better.
The long-standing conflicts and conflicts in family life should have been the highlight, but unfortunately there are too few scenes, and we can only guess through a few conversations. It's like a climax without foreplay, I always feel like something is missing.
Secondly, the director put anti-war elements on Tommy, and also used a dialogue with the wife of a deceased comrade-in-arms and a dialogue with his father in the amusement hall to show his inner pain and struggle. These sets of shots made me smell Brothers.
I have to say that this film uses too much force, too much. If the director can only choose one or two contradictions and enlarge them, this film will be more enjoyable to watch.
