Frankly speaking, this film is easy to think of Cinderella Man: boxing theme, family affection, and the weak overcome the strong. Although the last battle will also make people bloody and cheer for victory, we are all too familiar with this situation; in other words, when we walked out of the cinema, the blood did not stay for too long gradually dissipated.
It seems that the "frustration" of the male protagonist is less. Although he is playing the role of a "prodigal son", Hugh Jackman did not experience too many twists and turns in this film, or there was no "unforgettable" setback. Every time he is accompanied by good luck: a female friend who never left him when he was a teenager, a base for repairing robots, a car, a robot with sufficient power, a child who is also obsessed with Boxing King, and just the right amount of child support... ...we don't see anything in this film that really gets the hero down, not at all.
When the decisive battle reaches the end and begins to fight for the "stamina" of the robot, such a duel begins to move closer to the direction we are used to - the passively beaten party, when the attacker is exhausted, begins the final counterattack, and finally let the nominal The strong man suffered. Although the ending does not end with the underdog winning, all moviegoers know exactly who is the real winner.
If this film is really meaningful, it is that the controller of Zeus is a Russian and the inventor is a Japanese; although the opposite character is an Australian and a Canadian child, but in this film, it is basically American Spiritually infected. At the end of the duel, the upstarts vs the grassroots, and the grassroots wins - this caters to the needs of the people.
A slightly dull film, looking forward to the continued digging of the sequel.
