Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, the movies that the three cooperated with have seen "Goodfellas", "Las Vegas", and this "Raging Bull". I like the films made by Lao Ma very much. They are violent and real, and the way they describe gangsters is very emotional. These three movies only like "Goodfellas", and the other two feel average, but only Joe Pesci performed so well in all three movies, and the ruthless look of this little man is memorable.

Raging Bull, as a 1980 film, should have been considered quite radical at the time. The black-and-white filming technique depicts the events of the 1940s and 1950s. Jake, played by Robert De Niro, is too extreme in his thinking. To put it bluntly, he has a sick mind, which makes the whole film extremely depressed by his bad temper.

I had a lot of things to say, but suddenly I don't want to write, I don't like this movie. I don't like the classic.

    Disappointed. The role of Jack LaMotta as a boxer is essentially the same as the superman in "New York, New York". Even the so-called "anger" is cheap and shameless. There is nothing particularly tragic or worthy of sympathy. Robert De Niro's acting skills have not been fully utilized. Maybe I was expecting too much? Personally, I feel that it's hard to get under the prestige. Samsung and a half // 20160813 The big screen of China Film Archive. Still don't like it

    9/10. Revisiting, the first act alludes to the source of anger. Jack warms up alone on the court, waving his fists and moving his pace. The thick rope in the foreground is extremely powerful and symbolizes the Mafia behind the scenes. This unfair order implies Jack's dictatorship. Violent personality, after being unfairly judged, chairs thrown under the boxing ring, popcorn flying all over the sky, exclamation, stampede, the American national anthem hurriedly sounded, and when the throne of boxing was lost, the fog surrounding Robinson's image became terrifying. The clip vividly accesses the slow motion of Jack being hit on the head and dripping with blood and sweat. Contradictions and chaos affect Jack’s life. When his wife says hello to other men, he will be questioned. Scorsese uses the inequality of composition. Relationships, mirrors that expand the space, broken TV props, and the characters' restless emotions, to interpret the family quarrel scene where Jack asks his brother to slap him in the face, suspects his wife's infidelity, and misunderstands his brother, showing the family’s helplessness and Jack’s self-destruction and loss of faith. Jack asked himself in pain, and slammed desperately against the wall in prison. The once strong boxing champion was forced to live in the club to flatter him. The bull who did not want to bow his head finally learned to ask for forgiveness.
