In the late 16th century Europe was in the grip of a ferocious witch hunt, where thousands were tortured and burnt at the stake. The church was fully behind this terrifying crusade against the imaginary enemies of Christianity. In France and Germany alone up to 40,000 people may have been killed as witches. But England and Scotland were almost untouched by witch persecutions until King James himself decided to launch his own, personal war on witchcraft.
In 1597 King James VI of Scotland published 'Daemonology', a handbook on how to recognise and destroy, witches. The book explored the threat that 'those Detestable slaves of the Devil', posed to James himself. It fuelled waves of witch hunting throughout Britain.
The legacy of James' 'Daemonology' continued throughout the 17th century, and led to the torture and execution of hundreds of women in a series of infamous witch trials. No-one knows exactly how many men and women died in these trials, such as the Pendle trial of 1612, or how many others were killed in cases that never came to court. The documentary reveals the purges in many areas of Britain drew directly on King James' book. Also for the first time, remarkable new archaeological evidence from Cornwall, suggests that witchcraft was actively practiced for centuries, even during the most intense periods of witch-hunting. Experimental archaeologist Jacqui Wood has excavated strange pits lined with swan's feathers, and filled with animal skins and human remains. She believes the pits were ritual offerings inspired by witchcraft beliefs.
上帝为你关上了一扇窗，就一定会为你开启另一扇窗，体育总是令人着迷，期待中国的《李娜》
太过于流水线化的工整，重点不在于大小威不在于网球运动而在于家庭、种族和成功学，教科书般的颁奖季特供片。以至于在网球比赛段落中，我们可以看到顺风一分不丢逆风一分不得还得满地打滚的诡异场面，因为一分钟也不想浪费嘛。史皇的演技照《让幸福来敲门》没有进步也没有退步，就是个行活。虽然这部影片让我更尊敬大小威，但我依然最爱小克。
7/10。难免会和《摔跤吧！爸爸》做比较，同是父权，同是底层逆袭，情感上我更喜欢这部。有真人故事打底，洗白父亲确实拧巴，但他鸡汤励志讲话很戳我，谁不想要摆脱那样的环境啊。我认为中规中矩的冲奥片得这个质量。
出身低微的梦想者如何崛起成功的励志体育故事，令人兴奋着迷。颜色调的真好看！

一旦小丑开始温暖，整个节奏就开始变得奇怪，弃剧了！
这特么是美国版《我和我的父辈》啊？！实在不能理解，2022年了，为什么这种毫无创新，没有诚意的好莱坞流水线真人改编体育电影能杀入奥斯卡，还一路冲击到最佳影片提名！难以想象，奥斯卡如今都被黑人，同性，少数族裔这些政治正确绑架成这副鬼样子。本来对黑人没什么坏印象，但看着威尔·史密斯整天叼着牙签，吊儿郎当，自我吹嘘，拿着保护做PUA的挡箭牌，一路把孩子当筹码，换取全家的好生活，证明自己不是废物，挟孩子以令诸侯，反击自我敏感的肤色问题，鸠占鹊巢，目中无人，还一路顺风顺水，取得成功，反倒让人觉得小人得志，反感顿起。也许，导演本就不想为黑人平权，而是故意借机讽刺成功的黑人背后，有多么滑稽，要这样的话，那还是白人牛批。
a good movie, but in someway, it's boring af
教育是个永恒的话题，尤其是当下的国人，环境塑造人，所谓的种族问题只是环境问题，我觉得电影虽励志，但他不可复制！我们只能当一个故事来听，或许可以从中吸取一些东西，每个人的人生不同，性格不同，尊重生命的多样性！这也是一种可能！
个人最反感的还是这种堪称“扭曲”的教育方式吧。不管是从出生开始就被铺好的道路还是充满大男子主义的全面控制，都令本人全程想说go fuck yourself…
一旦小丑开始温暖，整个节奏就开始变得奇怪，弃剧了！
又一套好莱坞流水线工业品，哪怕是关乎运动，你也很难从中燃起激情。这都能提名奥斯卡最佳影片，所以别总借主旋律来踩我朝的奖项，大家彼此彼此。就电影呈现的人设来看，理查德值得敬佩，但难以讨喜。
一路都在落泪。when it started with fungus, you know it’s going to be good. What an amazing casting. A bit American centric though. Goddamn the reflection on motherhood. Single child no support system. Different family systems. Hmmm. Human connection, expression of emotions, it’s ok to be not fine.
为史皇看的，传记式的电影，所以就内容上来说相对平铺直述，不过你能够通过电影看到一个黑人父亲如何为他的黑人家庭做了最好的规划，如何逃离那个黑人社区，如何成就了这对网球史上最伟大的姐妹。想要了解威廉姆斯姐妹的球迷可以看，一个励志的故事。
好莱坞的常规套路，励志虎爸片。史皇的演技发挥出色。值得一个小金人。
励志传记黑人冲奥片，每个元素都注定了这肯定是一部“难看”的电影。

在美国，黑人想要摆脱混乱的社区只需要做三件事，高中毕业，找一份稳定的工作，先结婚后生子。但这对很多美国黑人来说都是一种奢侈，而威廉姆斯姐妹的父亲走的更远。
6.9.绝不是网球版《摔跤吧爸爸》。故事别出心裁的将重心放在了大威小威的父亲理查德威廉姆斯身上，对其性格特点和高瞻远瞩进行了细致入微而又不失真实的刻画，加上威尔史密斯堪称影帝级的《当幸福来敲门》式的表演，使本片作为一部传记片已经成功了一大半。第三幕居然选取了一场失败的比赛作为ending也算是不落俗套。美中不足在于篇幅较长的家庭戏码使影片显得拖沓和沉闷，种族议题也并不深刻，对父女之间的冲突也没有深入描写导致略显失真。
