“To live is to die. To die is to live. Avoiding death is to avoid living. ” – Sunday Adelaj.
Michael Bay’s debut documentary, “We Are Storor”, is a pulse-customer immersion in extreme tension (I know, so of nature). Focus? A British Parkour squad known as Storor with 10+ million subscribers on Youtube. The big one collaborated with Bay on Netflix “6 underground” to stunt on famous landmarks, and now Bay brought its insane history south of Southwest. You will test your fear of heights, marvel at parkour precision and learn why bigs draw their lives while bleeding passion. It is an adrenaline to remember and crack the psyche of professional daredevils.
“We Are Story” examines poster children to “live on the edge.” Seven individuals-two pairs of brothers and three friends-globetrot to exotic destinations and film deaths that Parkour Glans. Bay does not ignore the Peter Pan syndrome of everything and map the boys’ rise well into their vulnerable 30s, but remains focused on individual attitudes. The gang never wanted to grow up, so they didn’t – they turned big blog into a golden ticket. Bay does not ignore the naivety and stupidity of actions, but the story is still inspiring. You either get busy living or getting busy to die, which strings strive to speed.
The Docu thriller gives Parkour Novices a glimpse of X-Games-flavored experiences. Camaraderie remains of the utmost importance, while Stores members chase heavenly heights, combat burning, heal from injuries and think about a life without parkour. They are self -made niche celebrities with smiles plastered in the faces around the clock, but more interesting is that Storor’s consensus is stone -resistant. “We are Storor” game like a road-travel bridge comedy and their compatibility is contagious. Hollywood’s conditioned us to wait for an inevitable division or nasty divorce, but a single recorded argument leaves no scar. Bay remains in love with their supportive, sibling -like bands, as if he is chasing the ultimate key to happiness through Storro’s community.
Visually allows “We are struggles” outstanding access to ridiculous parkour fees. Chinatography leans on the first person’s handheld images and drone images that see what Storor sees, all shot from them. Bay did not shoot the pictures himself for fear of responsibility given the dangerous nature of the stunt, so he gathered the captured images in the distance. We peel skyscrapers in Hong Kong, rock fixtures in Malta and waste in Bulgaria with the eternal players. Your heart skips a beat every time a member backflips on the roof to the roof and gains with unnecessary risks – the rush is real. Surprises boast about the euphoria of surviving another stunt, the weightless millisecond when coasting through the air without the bottom in sight. Camerawork replicates first person-shooting films such as “Hardcore Henry” or “Abled” in addition to This is real. The sweaty palms, windy sound effects, scams, that’s all there – along with incredible (possibly illegal) views, how many stories high.
“We Are Bigs” will not be the sugar’s dangers and recognizes how parkour does not have to be at a large level. You will witness Gnary injuries, including a scene where you, for a second, are convinced that the movie was recording someone’s death. Bredorror athletes are always a mistake from eternal pension, which makes their precision technology more impressive. They not only piruettes over concrete obstacles-voltages provide synchronized choreography to their intricate, multi-person videos. Artism and physical fitness are united when the iron -friendly artists find rhythms while browsing poles, stairs, ramps and other architecture such as acrobats. It is fluid, practiced for perfection and in their senses, worth every hospital trip.
As a philosophical exercise, “We are Storor” does not say anything new. Bay’s documentary examines the fine line between crippling terror and pure happiness. Bredorror defines their practice as liberating, not rebel. They are three -pass, but just because they think some rules are stupid. Why can’t they the chance that their lives skip rites and sleep on helicopter pads without security networks below? There is a man child to discoveries who are respectful but still self -developed. Bay’s focus is overwhelmingly positive and fond of the visual splendor, which can reject emotional average. The threatening question of what comes the next haunts most members, but it is a volatile theme.
At his peak, “We are Storor”, the Gutorna lets be unpologetically themselves. They acknowledge how happy they are when they act like naked buffons. Bay highlights their endless spirits and inner fear as the characteristics of successful individuals. No one clinged to Parkour Youtube celebrities, but they built a following under the site’s outdated wild vest and swung to “safer” stunts when the demonetization time hit. Storrors refusal to quit is their message, and Bay’s documentary is a festive reflection.
Think of “We Are Story” as “Man On A Wire” sponsored by Mountain Dew. Michael Bay treats the gentlemen as more than online personalities with a death toll. Bredorror is a family that rises and falls together that happens to be parkour ninjas. There is no argument about action sequences that steal the show, but Bay finds a story worth telling about the specialists of the urban playground. Its tiles do not extend beyond to drive life to its boundaries, and that is good. “We Are Story” has a unique spin on documentaries about exceptionally driven people – just looking down.
“We are Stororor” is currently looking for distribution.
