Use science fiction to educate

This movie reminds me of my college entrance examination composition eight years ago: "If the memory can be transplanted." Wrote a science fiction novel in poor style, but it was too late because of lack of time.

But the same thing as this movie is that it uses science fiction to convey a proposition. It's just that the handling of this movie is of course much smarter, and the drama has a lot of humor.

Because it is a comedy, the protagonist's overly sensational episode before his "imposed death" is also tolerable. The hero's failed "simulation" made him desperately to tell his son "family come first" before he died.

Indeed, he chose "career" every time between "family" and "career". He feels that "family" has brought trouble to his "career", and the "career" is not going well and his "family" is in a mess. So he looked forward to the success of the "career". The "fast-forward" in the movie is not necessarily science fiction. It may not be the feeling of many people who focus on "career" in their lives after success. so fast. . . And a lot of things seem to be lost. . .

Looking back again, it was like a dream.

Fortunately, this is a comedy, and he has the opportunity to choose a new lifestyle and live his life again. The absurd but true dream made him wake up. He learned to enjoy the sorrow and joy of life, as well as the many troubles and annoying things in life. It is impossible for us who are watching movies to be indifferent. . .
