[A] The movie-watching expectations at the beginning were wrong. This was first a great "biographical movie" and then a "sports movie". The high-speed shots of the boxing ring at the opening are impressive, and the characters seem to be in a "horizontal" space cage. Family drama surpasses boxing, and gradually cuts into the character's self-decline in repeated character dialogues, without any waste. There are few boxing scenes, but the editing is too fierce. The editing level of the movies I have personally watched can be in the top ten. Unfortunately, due to the times, the boxing scene looks a little distorted. A story about how a man rises, shines, feels lost, angry, and perishes, yet stands firm and accepts it calmly. "I don't know whether a person is guilty, I only know that I was once a blind man, but now I see the light again."
