Jamp! Boys



After taking many exams, I felt relax and went to libery to watch a movie called "JampBoys".It's a story about seven boys who try hard to make their dreams come true. Those boys are only seven or eight, but they all want to be good gymnasts. In order to join a compitition, they stay in the school to practice gymnastics everyday during the summer vacation. No matter how tired they are, they still keep practicing it. In the end, they win the national compitition and make their dreams come true.


I was touched by this movie because of those boys' courage. Some of them are not good at studies, therefore, they are very shy in the class and seldom talk. However, when they practice gymnasts, it seems that they are confident and active. For them, the most important thing is to be a good gymnast. In order to reach their goals, they will try it again and again even they get hurt or don't have any energy. Before practicing gymnastics, the instructor will help them stretch. One of the boys, 小恩, can't bear the pain. Everytime he has to stretch, he will start to cry. However, he will practice it after crying.


I really respect those boys. When I was as young as them, I just played everyday and never thought about "dreams", but they have had their dreams and tried to make them come true step by step. I felt shame because I was so different from them.....


The movie also talks about the story of the instructor, who is also a good gymnast and join many internatonal compititions. He started to practice gymnastics when he was ten, however,he gave it up after he entered junior high school. He said that it was too tired to practice it everyday and he just wanted to play at that time. After many years, he regret and come back to practice it again. He thinks that people who have patience can success in the end. Also, he believe that some of those boys will become good gymnasts in the future.
