Let's think differently

Compared with the crisis of old age, the so-called midlife crisis is a moron. An 80-year-old widowed old man with no children by his side, his pension was in vain, and he even had to have a kidney transplant to maintain his life. The last stage of his life seemed to be accompanied by despair. Is to laugh at the situation. The film's pragmatic, lighthearted tone conceals the loneliness and powerlessness of old age. The tediousness of the story itself and the routine of the bank robbing passages are dissipated in the gags of the three old men.
When we were young, we worked hard every day, earning money to support our family, but we had to suppress our high-spirited youth and the distance in our hearts when we were young. When we retire, the abundant time is indeed a wave of energy, physical strength, and perseverance. The pattern of life is gone. Unable to open. This paradox often makes us unable to let go of the vastness we once missed when we are old, and let the years pass through the folds of our faces. Therefore, we always mistakenly think that when people are old, they are waiting for death. In fact, waiting for death and going to death are two propositions. The former is negative, heavy and pessimistic, and the latter is positive, calm and optimistic. But as long as there is courage and happiness, the sparks of life will always flicker. I hope that when I grow old, I can still be full of hope for the road ahead. No matter what happens, I can be a fearless brave man.
