This is a story that will only be possible in the future. Humans no longer like to watch similar hand-to-hand boxing matches. The development of technology has led humans to hide behind the scenes and manipulate robots. Just by controlling the program, the so-called Muay Thai, sumo, and kung fu skills can be applied to the robot's boxing. It seems that the movie first told you that the fighting patterns of technology are comparable to Transformers and the like.
Not so. "Iron Fist" deliberately tells about the position of men and boys in the father-son relationship, and does not place the protagonist on a lifeless robot. At a time when all sci-fi blockbusters have done their best to imaginatively render the reactionary consciousness and dominance of robots to the point of hype, the film calmly handed over the story clues to human beings, and the performance was also related to human nature. It seems that the Iron Warriors are fighting each other in a crowded arena, but they are all intertwined in the cynicism and change of heart of a single father.
After the death of his ex-girlfriend, Charlie Kenton met with his 11-year-old son Max, whom he had never met. He signed custody of his ex-girlfriend's sister with his own hands, but because the other party happened to be traveling abroad, he temporarily asked Charlie to take care of Mike. two months. During this period of time, Max became Charlie's assistant, helping him to guard against arrogance and impatience, and to find the winning points from the defeats, re-digging and designing the robot boxing program, and finally won. And Charlie also realized the guilt from his contempt for his son, and eventually grew up together and reluctantly parted. The scenes of repeated failures remind people of those western cowboys who broke their spines in the writings of American writer Anne Prue. The hardships of life make the fighting force continue.
The adult world and children seem to have endless topics to talk about, from "The Sixth Sense" to "Central Station", from "Kijiro's Summer" to the biographical film "Break Out" about Olympic diving champion Louganis, or more. Or at least make the two collide with the most authentic things of human nature. This type of film often begins with the selfishness, mania, hypocrisy and other symptoms of adults who are infected by society, and later realizes self-examination due to the reflection of children's simple character, or both have their own benefits. Charlie's character is a bit playful, pursuing the excellence of machinery and equipment, eager for success, but ignoring that "people" are the key factor to truly control the machine. This is also the difference between this film and other films. The soft power of human nature is reflected in the cold and masculine mechanical boxing. Charlie's lack of understanding and awareness of others and his own humanity is doomed to defeat again and again. He used to be a real boxer but couldn't face his failures and mistakes. The appearance of Max happened to recall these gradually lost human qualities.
What's interesting is that the sparring robot Adam, who was originally identified as "trash", also gained some kind of life due to the director's special camera treatment. When the battle for the championship was about to start, it was alone in the lounge and was seen from the mirror reflection. own face. At that moment, this face without human expressions and organs was filled with a touch of sadness and happiness. Its tenacity to fight made Charlie unpredictable, and likewise, Charlie didn't expect the most precious thing in his soul to be recalled. This is exactly what moves the audience, there is no deliberate or hypocritical, everything is real and sensible.
Although the story takes place in the future, it is very realistic. The film does not deliberately render the superpower of the robot, but integrates the special effects production into the storytelling very peacefully and naturally. However, the sound and light effects on the field are very shocking, and the scene where Max leads the robot Adam to do warm-up exercises is believed to attract many audiences. This is a film that is inspirational, sci-fi, human, and father-son relationship. The seemingly impossible task finally won the cheers of victory with the characteristics of human nature.
