lack of depth

I always thought Oscar gave George Clooney too much face.
For example, films such as "Michael Crichton" and "In the Clouds" are actually very general and not too new, but he can always be nominated.
Like this "Descendants".

The story is very simple, that is, the wife's lover turned out to be his partner, but it turned out to be a soft egg, and then the partnership was terminated.
What that lover had to do with his land, I guessed from the beginning.
Then, throughout the film, I was immersed in that pretty daughter's face and hot body.

Don't tell me that he learned from his failed marriage to cherish the land. His final decision, to put it bluntly, was revenge.
The only ideal collaborator is his rival in love. He said he would complete his management of the land within seven years.

OMG, he just realized the importance of family, he wanted to take good care of his family and his two daughters, but he turned himself into a seven-year-old career.

Either the male protagonist has a problem with his brain, or the screenwriter has a problem with his brain.

    It's a very light story, but it's true. The busy father who lost the joy of life is a very kind person.

    It's a very unique movie, and it's so beautiful about the midlife crisis. I love Shailene Woodley, so pretty. The structure is very delicate, and the melodious soundtrack is super-feeling

The Descendants quotes

  • Alexandra King: When I was over at Christmas, I caught her with the guy. It made me sick to see her near you. I went back to school thinking that that was it... that I was just done with her. I was gonna call and tell you everything, and... and then the accident happened, and... I was waiting until she woke up, I guess. You didn't even suspect. Right? Right? You disgusted me too. You're always so busy.

  • Scottie King: I don't like eggs.

    Matt King: Why didn't you say so before I made them?

    Scottie King: I thought they were for you.

    Matt King: Good morning. Does Mom let you have Coke for breakfast?

    Alexandra King: I'm pretty sure it's after eleven. Now that we get a closer look, we might recognize Alexandra from the postcards at the hospital. We also see a resemblance to her mother.

    Matt King: How are you feeling? Hangover, huh? Why am I not surprised? I don't know where to start, and we probably shouldn't in front of Scottie.

    Scottie King: I don't mind.

    Matt King: I thought you were supposed to be getting your act together.

    Alexandra King: I have gotten my act together. I was just drinking. I've been doing really well, but nobody ever seems to notice my grades are better, and how I was in that stupid play you guys didn't bother to see. Do you even remember the name of it? That's what I thought. So what if I got drunk on the ONE night you happened to drop in? So the fuck what?

    Matt King: Hey, hey, hey. Watch your language in front of Scottie.

    Scottie King: I'm okay.

    Matt King: Anyway, it's good to see you. Welcome home. Want some eggs?

    Alexandra King: How long do I have to stay?

    Matt King: We'll discuss that.

    Alexandra King: I'm going swimming.

    Matt King: Then I'll join you.
