Dedicated to the baby boomer generation

Hollywood is a big commercial film factory, and each film is produced through a series of standard processes such as market research and audience positioning. If you think this movie is just a farewell show for a bunch of old guys, that's too emotional. In fact, the commercial positioning of this film is very clear, that is, it is dedicated to the generation born in the 1950s and 1960s, that is, the generation of baby boomers.

This generation has experienced the Vietnam War, the expansion of Wall Street, rock and roll, and witnessed one of the most exciting historical changes in American society after the war, but this generation has now left their jobs and started to live a pensionable life, but they are not at all. Not reconciled, so this movie will surely stimulate their inner blood and prove their disobedience to the old heart!
