I just finished watching the movie; I've heard nothing before and after the movie was released whether it was bad or good. It stayed quiet, which honestly I am glad because I got to see it with a clean slate without any tarnish of opinion. Since the movie has been out of theaters I think its fair to give my opinion.
It reminded me that throughout life, there is a handicap... no matter what. The idea of a handicap in a fight through the movie is absolutely symbolic of what real life has to offer. The people you know or don't know have an advantage over those who see life through pure and good but frightened eyes. I've always had a heart for helping and did so, I've help friends cope with tough times personally and confidentially. Those people who have taken my help and end up advised to dislike me due to popular friendship pawn my help and then ridicule it. You should feel ashamed of yourself, betrayal is a sin you can never wash away. Ignorance is no excuse for it either.
I at many points of my life felt I could accomplish anything, I've done many great things that would be considered impossible. But I was only paying a debt, to see someone I know and care about smile was priceless. I was in love once, as true as the love I have for my grandmother and anyone who knows me well enough would know my grandmother means the world to me. I didn't believe I had it in me to handle such a task, not until I knew what it meant to be a man. Now I've seen many things and now I see myself and know I am now.
Redbelt was a good motivator to speak my mind, I wish people would think twice before selling themselves away because I would appreciate the friendships. I have nothing to gain so lying would be a pointless.
So this is my message to you, If you really meant something by now why didn't you show it? You only live once so being true to someone else isn't exactly being true to you. Stop selling out and start living.
