I like Jason Reitman's movie very much, so I have been looking forward to this movie for almost a year
.
Around November last year, I saw the movie poster and trailer. There was a sentence in it: everyone gets old, not everyone grows up. Feeling hit suddenly. When I arrived at university, the symptoms of procrastination became more and more obvious, and I was dying of my illness. But then I think about it, this kind of weakness and evasion of responsibility is more like immaturity, so I judged myself as "not being old, but not growing up." Seeing this sentence, I suddenly understood that getting old and growing up are two times. So, it's not that I won't grow old before I grow up. Look at Mavis in the movie, with dark circles under her eyes, wearing hello kitty clothes, doing childish things, what if it is yourself many years later? Oh

is said that this film is very popular with the 70 United States, that China's 90 then, maybe just ten years Aging bar. In the beginning of the film, you can find several traces of yourself: I saw Mavis typed a few lines and opened the mailbox, I thought of opening the school in the middle of the code program; I saw Mavis struggle to print with the ink cartridge that should have been replaced a long time ago. When sending out a terrible email, I saw myself who was so full of the wastebasket, but too lazy to pour it. Although there is an age gap with the characters in the play, if you look carefully, the post-90s generations in China can still find a lot of resonance in the film.

In Jason Reitman's four feature films, almost every one has a similar theme. In Juno, Juno's maturity and strength that do not match his age reflect the cynicism of adoptive family men, as well as the avoidance and weakness of sudden responsibility. Ryan Bingham in Up in the Air is such a person, immersed in the life philosophy of his backpack theory, evading real emotions and responsibilities. In the film, Natalie's sentence "I'm too young. You are twelve years old" is even more coincidental." Everyone gets old, not everyone grows up.

talk about the end of the movie. In my opinion, this one The ending of the movie is similar to Up in the Air. It is thought-provoking and sad. It is not so much that the director finally promoted a "be yourself" attitude in life, but rather the director gave a most popular-based one. Opinion. If a friend confides his confusion to us, we often use words like "stick to our own way" and "be yourself" to persuade friends. But sometimes, or often, this so-called "persistence" is more like It is a kind of weakness that is afraid of change. This weakness is the characteristic of mental aging. I can’t help but think of Scent of a Woman’s last speech
"I was on the crossroad in my life. I always knew which the right path was. But I never took it, Because it is too damn hard"
---------------------------------It has nothing to do with the subject-- -------------------------------
Jason Reitman may not know that there is a D8 in China with a group of dicks, but the fat man in the movie expresses the image of dicks too well, short, poor, ugly, and fat. When I saw him say that, Guys like me are born love women like you, I lie on the table and laughed for a long time, my mind is full of goddesses. Dios are often proud of the so-called level of knowledge, that is, no matter how chaotic their life is, whatever outlook on life and values ​​are always the best. The fat man in the film is just like this, doing the same job as moving bricks, but when persuading Baifumei to talk about it. When the dicks saw the goddess stripping naked and standing in front of the fat man in the film, they would definitely say that there was a big deal of people's heart, and they would counterattack one day sooner or later. When I think about it carefully, maybe I understand, md, it is also a spare tire after a counterattack.

The song in the film is so nice. It is

said that JK Simmons,
a humorous uncle, appeared in Jason Reitman's three previous feature films. In Thanks for Smoking, as the boss of the hero, he is an important role in the film. In Juno, he plays Juno's father, and his role is not less than the previous one. In Up in the Air, they are basically reduced to extras with lines. After watching this Young Adult, his figure never appeared. However, Mavis boss is his voice. It's Jason Reitman's old friend
