"Life's Ups and Downs"

When I saw a third of the movie, I started to get excited about the movie. From the moment that mysterious company appeared, the movie became a game that allowed the audience to guess the ending. I tried to think this was a well-meaning scam, but when the waitress told the protagonist that his brother had lied to him, I started to think it was a malicious fraud again. But no one would have thought that when the protagonist jumped from a tall building, he finally fell into an air cushion with a big "x" painted on it. This is life, and the big ups and downs are always in an instant. I think it’s hard to have that kind of excitement a second time. In these stimuli, the protagonist’s invisible panic towards his father, unprecedented enthusiasm for work, and indifference to his family have been relieved and redeemed. So when the protagonist smiles at the end, we know that the movie is over, but the protagonist's life has changed into another look.
