The story revolves around Ethan, 17, who joins a stable as an apprentice jockey. In this world ruled by betting and money, places are expensive. After difficult beginnings, the teenager wins his first race. With his winnings, he hopes to put his father to safety but soon discovers the shortcomings of the equestrian world, from anorexia and drugs to fixed races. Until he commits...
一个完全不了解的世界和职业,也算一种开拓眼界。电影本身也可圈可点,节奏,剪辑都不错。通过一个社会再融入的青少年展现了赛马世界的荣光和黑暗,这种apprentissage的过程也让电影本身成为成长电影,通过身边的亲朋师友等(特别是和Lucas这种矛盾的关系),实现自身真正意义的觉醒,虽然结局不一定会更好,但此时的少年依旧保有赤诚之心。
是难得 “下饭” 佳作,轻松诙谐风格、紧凑剧情,闲暇观影驱散疲惫,带来愉悦好心情,解压又惬意。
虽然影片在某些方面存在不足,但对于喜欢这类题材的观众来说还是值得一看的。
每个角色都栩栩如生,他们的性格和动机都得到了充分的展现,令人印象深刻。
这剧剧情拖沓,感情线莫名其妙,看得人直打瞌睡,差评。
