1/2 of the Magic: Learn to Love and Believe

I kind of like this. Many creatures can use magic, but they may have forgotten it. Because of the convenience of technology, creatures have forgotten many instinctive world settings. Whether it is to see his father, Ian tried and failed again and again, and slowly he truly believed in magic. Is the existence of the surly elves remembered in the thrilling moment and flew naturally, or the manticores spread their wings that have not been exercised for a long time with suspicion, and finally when the people and horses really started to run recklessly, I will feel, wow , In fact, what we have to do is to believe and act (effort) and move (force)!

The film tells the story of a pair of brothers who miss their father and set foot on the road to find the Phoenix Stone, the core of magic, in order to spend a day with their complete father. It is an adventure story, a family love story, and a classic growth story.

When Ian, who had just grown up, wrote "NEW ME" in his notebook, it seemed like I easily decided to start over every time. And perhaps this decision is too easy, so after encountering a small setback, it will be easily given up. But in the face of the father who only returned half of it because of 1/2 magic, and the regret of his brother, Ian's magic and perseverance are sprouting and erupting, and this time the decision has been fulfilled!

Brother Barry looks like a big boy, always believes in magic, all love is strong and direct, and seems to be a troublemaker, but if there is no brother, Ian may never be Ian. In fact, my brother is also soft and sensitive in his heart, but he is only covered up by his careless sincerity, a proper warm-blooded boy.

The brave warrior mother is very unusual and unusual. I realized at the end that about bravery, it turned out that the film had already laid a foreshadowing at the beginning. Such a strong love for her son was portrayed incisively and vividly in every action. It is a racing car The anxiety at this time is an unstoppable urging, an uneasy temptation, and an attack that is struggling at a critical moment.

There is a lot of love and companionship in the film, including the love of the younger brother for the father who has never met, the company of the confident older brother for the unconfident younger brother, the love of the mother for the child, and many small pieces of trust and growth, just like the world.

Digression, the translation of the movie is really mysterious, so the point is just right, if Ian only released 1/2 of the magic, and his father only returned 1/2, how could Ian or the creatures in the movie open the other 1/2 the new world.
