This movie was another parallel of war, war is a topic that is timeless because it’s constantly around us. The basic humanity and the lack thereof, brought it into a more modern light. Every person has a drive in them at a primal and instinctual level, that makes them fight for what they believe in or run away.

The main motto of the film was “ I want you to be forever strong on the field so that you will be forever strong off the field.” This quote is what drove rick and his new team to be the best that they could be. They didnt care about being the best they cared about fighting the hardest that they could because helping and inspiring others is what is actually important.

The first scene I will be discussing is when the police officers pull over Cameron Thayer, the seconnd time, with Anthony in the car with him. When Officer Tom Hansen desides to let Cameron go, you realise that he felt bad for what happened preveoisly to Camerons wife. You can tell by the look on Officer Hansens face that he knew what Office John Ryan did to Camerons wife was wrong and unethical. Officer Hansen thought that this was the best thing he could offer Cameron, which would be to let him go, or the other officers would shoot Cameron.

The film also teaches us that we must persevere, as shown by Gardner when he stood against all odds in order to achieve a perfect life for him and his son.

The political elements of the movie are shown through the politics of violence. The movie focuses on masculinity, violence and gender. It resembles the pathology of individual and institutional violence that fills America, ranging from hate crimes to criminal subcultures. Violence functions mostly through the politics of denial, insulation, disinterest and inability to criticize with self-consiousness. This is the violence that represents society today.

Other themes that will be evident are anger, urgency, betrayal, and at times even disgust. All these themes are incorporated into this soliloquy and must be portrayed in different ways. When trying to portray this scene is therefore important that the same themes are shown no matter if it is a modern adaptation or not.
