If you want to briefly summarize this movie, it is the story of a father who trains two daughters to become wrestling champions.

Mahavira (Amir Khan Aamir Khan) was once a promising wrestler, but was forced by life to give up wrestling. After giving up his career, his biggest regret was that he was not able to win the gold medal for the country. Mahavira pinned her hopes on her unborn son, who knew that his wife bore him two daughters in succession, named Geeta (Fatima Shaikh) and Babita (Sanya Malhotra). What Mahavira did not expect was that the two girls showed outstanding wrestling talent in a fight with a boy, which made him realize that even if it was a girl, she could stand on the competition field with her head held high and win honors for the country and themselves. Thus, the Indian version of "Mulan" grew into a story that began.

How many times have I heard that "wearing a skirt and having long hair is a girl", "a girl must be able to cook and do housework", "a girl must be quiet and sweet", etc. How must girls be told and so on?

Have you ever thought that if you abandon these shackles, what kind of person you will become?

In India, the status of women is low, child marriage is the norm, young marriage and children, the various possibilities of life are buried in the sadness of the family; The state hopes that the athletes will win the gold, but they do not give full support, and they want the horses to run, and they want the horses not to eat grass, which leads to the helplessness of the athletes in an embarrassing situation.

In the film, the wrestling father has always cherished the dream of a champion, paranoidly wants to continue the dream to the next generation, carry out devilish training for the two daughters in the image of a "tyrant", and even cut off the long hair of the female symbol, and the two daughters take a beautiful childhood time, and even the green onion time, not only to bear physical pain, but also to be criticized and ridiculed by the outside world.

You might say that the father in the play acts arbitrarily and has no respect for the personal wishes of his daughters. But how could the suffering of the daughters not be the happiness that other girls look up to? He guided his daughters into the sports industry, completely changed the direction of their destiny, and turned them into a modern woman with a world perspective.

Wrestling small stage, social stage, daughter has a life, its wonderful degree is far more than other Indian women, all say that father love is like a mountain, deep and thick, not as warm and thorough as mother's love, tiger Port Ganfan imitation song wet splash, may sometimes be difficult to detect, but as long as you touch the wall and are wronged, he must stand where you can see, cheering for you.

As the century old man Bing Xin said: The flower of success, people only admire her current brilliance, but its buds were soaked with the tears of struggle and sprinkled with the blood rain of sacrifice.

Success is the dream of creating life by pain, and the miracle of self-improvement.

In order to realize their father's dream of winning the championship, Geeta and Babita in the play are forced to tearfully cut off the long hair that symbolizes women with tears, and endure the different eyes, criticism and ridicule from their peers and non-peers.

They sacrifice the recreational time they should have at that age and train hard.

They suppress youth, but they also reshape youth, just like college entrance examination students, carrying the dreams of the family, the expectations of society, in the take-off stage of chasing the dream of life, vibrating heavy wings, difficult to move forward.

The wonderful moment of Geeta's final success comes from the accumulation of a lot of boring training every day, from the turning back in the detour, from the last blow that never gives up, thus achieving a historical legend! The road to success is full of hardships, and the glory is sprinkled with sweat.

But even if the road ahead is difficult and the thorns are deep, the realization of dreams is not impossible.

The pace of the movie is bright and tight, the tension is measured, and each game makes people nervous, pinch a cold sweat, and even make people can't help but applaud.

Everyone can be a high-flying eagle, don't think that you can only be a canary, not be someone else's princess, be your own queen. Appear in the form you like and grow savagely in the direction you want.

WrestleMania! "Daddy", a film with sports themes, belongs to the genre film that can basically guess the end after watching the beginning, but the actors' acting skills are online, the story details are in place, and the emotions are real and moving. Combining fatherly love and dreams so perfectly, and focusing on gold medal consciousness and feminist consciousness, the whole film presents a broken and standing style, both the whipping of reality and the courage to break the tradition, touching confidence, and making people tear up.

The shock brought by this movie even made Feng Xiaogang sigh "ashamed of himself". Behind this movie is the long-term absence of Chinese sports movies. In Hollywood and even around the world, sports movies are an important branch, carrying the artistic sublimation of people's lives, but in the Chinese film market, there are few excellent sports movies. Why is it that in China, where the film market is growing rapidly and all kinds of films can constantly refresh box office records, sports-themed movies have not improved?

This is not a puzzling topic, because film practitioners do not care about sports stories, and because sports practitioners do not have the ability to control artistic or commercial means such as movies. But the criticism of each of the fifty boards, while being simple and rude, avoids a deeper problem: sports is not yet a mainstream way of life, sports are not important, and the sports stories that can be distilled are, at least for modern film practitioners, quite poor and limited.

So this movie can be a short period of time after the release of the Chinese mainland box office word of mouth double harvest is not without reason, no matter what, excellent is excellent, regardless of the country, praise for this!
