前不久，一部印度的《摔跤吧！爸爸》血洗我大影院，以近13亿的票房完美收官。

至今豆瓣评分高达9.1，可谓是口碑票房双丰收。

这部片子之后，阿米尔汗、印度电影、包括摔跤这项冷门运动都成了热门标签。

就在这两天，另一部和“摔跤”有关的新电影横空出世。

甚至被称为好莱坞版「摔跤吧！爸爸」——

《美国奇才摔跤手》I 2017

American Wrestler: The Wizard

和《摔跤吧！爸爸》一样，这部电影也是根据真实事件改编。

讲的是一个伊朗男孩逃亡到美国，在舅舅的帮助下成长为一名摔跤英雄的故事。

所以准确点说，应该叫它《摔跤吧！舅舅》才对。

故事的主人公名叫阿里，一个来自伊朗的热血骚年。

当时，伊朗同美国、伊拉克正在撕逼。

为了给儿子找条活路，父母把他藏在卡车夹层里，偷偷送到了美国舅舅家。

那时的美国视伊朗为肉中刺。

街上到处都是“伊朗人和狗不得入内”的牌子。

身为伊朗人，阿里在学校的待遇可想而知。

开学第一天，老师讽刺他装逼;

吃素食的他被痞子男辱骂成畜生：

除了语言侮辱，身体挑衅也是家常便饭。

当阿里想加入学校社团来改善同学关系时，也没有一个部门愿意接收他。

好在天无绝人之路，阿里凭借独特的优势杀进了摔跤队。

这让他的舅舅跟打了鸡血一样兴奋。

原来阿里的舅舅曾经就是一名相当出色的摔跤手。

他决定亲自训练阿里，打败那些一直看不起他们的美国人。

有了神助攻，阿里进步神速。

但歧视没有因此停止，他依旧只能作为替补队员原地待命。

直到一个队友因病退赛，阿里终于可以上场，并一举摘得冠军。

首战告捷，随后的阿里一路开挂，逢战必胜。

在别人都在为荣誉而战的时候，阿里却是为了生存和尊严，在摔跤这条路上越走越远。

不知小伙伴们发现了没，电影中其实暗藏了一个小彩蛋。

其实片中阿里的原型就是舅舅的扮演者，阿里·阿夫沙尔。

换句话说，阿里本人倒成了舅舅。

作为美版《摔跤吧！舅舅》，片中有很多地方都有着《摔跤吧！爸爸》的影子——

都和摔跤有关；都属于励志向；都是用摔跤来挑战传统和世俗。

两部电影也都体现了永不放弃的体育精神，并且一样震撼人心。

尽管有很多相似的地方，但两者的差别却也十分明显。

其中最大的差异就是，同样是摔跤，反抗的却是截然不同的对象——

“爸爸”对抗的是性别歧视，“舅舅”对抗的是种族歧视。

爸爸看到了女儿的天分，决定教她们摔跤来实现男女平等，获得社会的尊重；

舅舅则是深知美国是一个好胜的国家，只有击败他们，才能获得他们的尊重。

除此之外，《摔跤吧！舅舅》的打斗戏码也不如《摔跤吧！爸爸》那么丰富。

它更多表现的是政治励志，对人物情感的刻画、转变的历程描述的不够细腻。

这可能也是两部电影评分差距悬殊的最大原因。

尽管如此，两部片子都教会了我们一个简单而深刻的道理。

那就是，人想要获得尊重，就得靠自己的努力和实力。

往大了说是种族歧视、重男轻女的大流，往小了说就是日常生活的点滴。

当你找准了路子，激发了潜力，收获了实力，你也能收获一个开挂的人生。

Plyler:It's not what I was saying.Coaches were talking. Skinner:Okay.Okay. 31.Plyler:How easily did you get off the balance?

故事讲述了伊朗少年阿里由于国家战争，为了逃命来到美国求学，受尽欺凌，最终加入摔跤队，并成功获得冠军的故事。影片开始的抓杆子躲避搜查很好，成功为观众设立了一个共同观影目标，希望这个男孩活下去，希望他成功，整个故事来说还算流畅，讲两个问题：1.他第二次跟同学打架并被校长抓住，校长责令他退出摔跤队，他怎么口舌都校长都不同意，最后仅仅说了一句衣服的事，转变太快，很突兀。2.舅舅被车撞死说明编剧江郎才尽，令人失望，为了死而死人，用这种方式让故事达到高潮让人想呕，恶心。总得来说还可以，但比《摔跤吧爸爸》还差些

虽然男主角在美国倍受排挤，但是当他能够留在美国的时候却那么兴奋，因为回到伊朗，他可能就会送命。只要生命还在，过往的一切都将成为身后的风。每个人的生活都不容易，要么妥协，要么像男主那样，击败心中的恐惧。男主和《摔跤吧，爸爸》里面的女主一样，都面临着世俗的压力，可是我觉得，相对于《摔跤吧，爸爸》里面的女主，男主的压力更大，因为《摔跤吧，爸爸》里面的女主，毕竟生活在自己的国家，还有一个强有力的爸爸作为自己的后盾。可是男主的依靠，他的舅舅，也同样被排挤（一个是他的汽修厂被喷字，并且很快没有了生意；还有就是当他的啤酒瓶不小心打碎别人车玻璃的时候，他和他朋友惊慌失措的样子）。
