The fetters outlined by family love in the poems and books of dreams have become the most simple moving face of "Heart is There". In front of dreams, although there is real helplessness, it is still worthy of hope. The conclusion of home and dreams It is the ingenuity of the movie, but on the other hand, the flatness of characterization and the lack of plot conception make the film look and feel unavoidably lengthy.
In middle age, he is still nothing but a real dilemma for Aidan as an actor, but he is lucky. He has a father who can still help him financially and a kind and tolerant wife. , There are two lovely children, and the sudden accident of the father’s cancer and the dilemma of children’s tuition make Aidan as a father, before the dream of an actor who is still far away, all he can face seems to be only Compromise, but people who have dreams can always shine with a unique light.
This is not a movie dedicated to dreams. The love of the family members builds the film’s context. Aidan, who returns to the family, helps daughters and sons to find themselves in their growth, teaches colleagues who harass their wives, and also helps. The younger brother got rid of the grievances with his father, and the little bit of emotional cohesion between the family members formed a simple and moving sentiment in the movie. In the end, Aidan, who loves acting, also found a job as a university teacher because of his kindness and integrity. , "Heart is There" is actually the family, even in the face of difficulties, hope still exists, and behind this hope is the deep fetters of a family.
There is no denying the sincerity of the emotions presented in the film, but the director Zach Bluff’s presentation in this work is just a re-enactment of his work more than 10 years ago. The Andrew in "Love Return to New Jersey" is like that. Ten years later, Aidan in "Heart is There" is a downcast actor image. The flat characters cannot be made three-dimensional by a few golden lines. In the plot conception, the movie has the same home and dream two. The conclusion of the author, but the overall rhythm control is too bad, so that many self-contained emotional settings ultimately only make the movie appear mediocre. This is undoubtedly a pity for this work.
Although "Heart Is There" is still lacking in directing skills, as a healing and warm family drama, the sincere emotions presented by the film are indeed enough to give the audience a chance to find the spiritual harbor built by the house.
