The reviews of this movie I found on the Internet seemed to focus on children with emotional disabilities, and it was classified as a thriller drama, but after watching it, I didn't feel horrified. On the contrary, there was some helplessness and regret. In the film, the adults (including Mark's father and the self-righteous doctor) did not really communicate with the children from beginning to end. All the details were not paid attention to, and the children had no time to listen and think until the problem was over. I only realized that I didn’t know my children anymore. I thought I could understand my children by sitting at the same table every day. In fact, the inner world of the children was ignored in the busy work and running every day. The children are just competing for toys. They never thought about what the toys represent. If Henry’s parents can be more patient and sensitive, they will not slowly brew the final evil. If they don’t just express love with their mouths, Herry will not fall alone in jealousy and longing in a cold corner where no warmth can be seen (fortunately, this problem is effectively solved by our family planning policy).
By the way, what surprised me is Macaulay. On one side, this baby can be a smart and wise little angel, on the other hand, it can be a dark, evil and fearsome little devil. His eyes and lines are not at all in the film. It’s so real, it’s like the little boy next door to me. Now I know that the children’s seemingly carefree smiling faces may already have their own little abacus. The children really can’t afford it. ~

    The script idea is very good, but the specific plot arrangement is a bit poor. Make people less anxious, less afraid, less hated. The director is too messy and has no talent. Where did this weird hand come from?

    When I was a child, the Little Ghost series was the hottest, I used VCD to watch it. I remember the mother's decision in the last scene, and I was deeply impressed.

The Good Son quotes

  • [Mark and Henry run up to Henry's ladder and high treehouse]

    Henry: Afraid of heights?

    Mark: No.

    Henry: Good. See you at the top. You coming?

    Mark: Sure.

    [they begin to climb the ladder to the very top]

    Henry: Come on, it's easy.

    Mark: Help me up.

    [Mark struggles and the branch for his footing breaks, Mark dangles high up barely able to hold onto Henry's hand]

    Henry: [Henry asks Mark very directly] If I let you go, do you think that you can fly?

    Mark: [Mark murmurs out very scared] Help.

    [Henry finally helps Mark all the way into the treehouse as the two kids laugh]

  • [Alice finds Mark sitting at the park]

    Alice: Susan told me you were here. I guess you forgot our appointment.

    Mark: I just didn't feel like talking.

    Alice: Talking helps. It helped the last time, didn't it?

    Mark: You're a doctor. You know things.

    Alice: Well, some things.

    Mark: What do you think? What makes people evil?

    Alice: Evil is a word people use when they've given up trying to understand someone. There's a reason for everything if we could just find it.

    Mark: What if there isn't a reason? What if something just is?

    Alice: Why, Mark? Do you think you're evil? 'Cause you let your mother die? You know that's not true.

    Mark: What if there was this boy and he did these terrible things because he liked doing them? Wouldn't you say he was evil?

    Alice: I don't believe in evil.

    Mark: You should.
