      idealism is a disease

      At the end of the film, I think it is also the most central sentence of the whole film that the film wants to convey to the audience. The male protagonist's son said it flatly at the end of the film, "The only one who thinks about you is me, so who's opinion needs your attention? If it's mine, it's mine."

      This film seems to be a joke on the protagonist alone, as if he is the only one in the world who is troubled by this. It is this embarrassing situation that makes the protagonist...

      Distress of life

      It seems that I see myself in the male protagonist. Except that I have no family, I am very similar. I am sensitive and pretentious and have no ability to live a better life. I don't know how to accumulate and care, my mind is on the comparison with others, I constantly feel inferior, and gradually break away from the mainstream life. He has found a good wife, has a good son, and may have gradually succumbed to life because he chose the wrong career and was unable to fulfill his ambitions....

      Brad's status

      "Brad's Midlife Crisis" tells a story: Brad's son is about to take the college entrance examination. He accompanied his son to the Boston college campus and accepted a college interview by the way. Boston is also home to Brad's alma mater, which is a bit of a revisit. It's just such a common thing that it can hardly be called a "story". The only thing that was a little irritating was that the college that interviewed his...

      Crisis in life

      Since the ivory tower, this sense of crisis has slowly started to breed. With the passage of time, the increase of age, and the changes in the life circle, each of us is afraid of falling behind on the running track of life. , But ordinary days wear away our fighting spirit every day. There is an idea in the play that I may agree with at this point in time, that is, you have to force yourself to be a fighter or the other half to be a fighter, so that you can keep pushing yourself to improve...

      hello brad

      Watching this movie made me feel a little depressed. I felt that the choices I encountered in the movie were all my personal experiences. It seemed that my future was being determined all the time, which made me feel a sense of crisis inexplicably. Maybe I live too casually. In the future, like Brad, it may be difficult for me to accept the unsatisfactory life of my life. I gradually get away from the life circle I aspire to, love the world, but cannot own the world. But think about it from...

      If one day my classmates become great, I will be happy. After all, it is a good thing that someone can help you, so why not be unhappy. Don't compare people, the comparison will always be hurt. If people want to move forward, there will be accidents...

      2018-4-28 On Aeroflot from Moscow back to Hong Kong. I really like Ben Stiller, probably from the time I met my father-in-law. Although he is a comedian, it should be said that it is because he is a comedian that I have the kind of lonely feeling that attracts me, just like Jin Kai Rui, Robin Williams, Stephen Chow. I love this movie and the ending is great.

      Three and a half. The plot is basically a portrayal of life. It is sad to find that I have not even gotten married and have not given birth to a baby. I am in an early middle-aged crisis in my 20s. The urban middle class is really sad. It's like a group of middle-class people who live in the false prosperity of the fat friend circle and keep complaining about themselves. Man, you still have to learn to be content (chicken soup face). In addition, the male protagonist is the one from...

    The film’s rhythm is steady, the details are in place, the plot is touching, and it cleverly combines some intriguing jokes with thought-provoking life issues, and shows the audience a less common Ben Stiller . (Timeline Review) 
    The audience may think that this father is a bit nervous, but in fact, the film is very natural. Brad loves his son. He takes great pains to schedule an interview for his son. He did not do anything...

    Movie quotes

    • Ananya: You competing with your friends from college... that competition is the history of colonialism OK? and the oppression of women and the fucking up of the environment.

    • Brad Sloan: [narrating] Her friend, Maya was equally captivating, equally compelling. I suddenly felt a deep grief... for all the women I would never love and all the lives I would never live. I imaging running away with them both and starting again and what that might look like.

    • Troy Sloan: When we were walking around today and you embarrassing me, I kept thinking, like, you know, if I go to this school, everybody here's gonna remember this and I'm never gonna live this down. But... you know, they're not gonna remember. Because, everybody's just thinking about themselves. You know? Nobody cares. Like, the only person that's thinking about you, is me, so... the only person's opinion that you should really care about is mine.

      Brad Sloan: Yeah. What's your opinion?

      Troy Sloan: Well, I love you.

      Brad Sloan: Thank you.
