If life is too perfect, it would be boring

It’s a story of a very ordinary male protagonist and a very ordinary female protagonist
and ordinary, simple and true love,
but the screenwriter has given such a actor who almost everything is ordinary a super power-travel through time and space
because of this. The entire ordinary story has also become magical.
Crossing is also a very popular topic in recent years. The
various unimaginable plots are actually similar.
But this movie is different from other crossing dramas. The
whole movie is very flat and not thrilling. The story of a hundred turns and thousands of times
began plainly and the story almost ended plainly,
just like our usual ordinary day.

Tim met his first love
in a summer. The night before the girl went back, it couldn’t even pass through time and space. After letting someone who doesn’t love you fall in love with you
, he fell in love with the heroine Mary after going to London, but in order to help his father’s friend Herry save a failed drama performance, he missed Mary,
but after passing through time and space several times, he finally met Mary lived happily together,
and the trivial details of the two people reunited at the station each time are also enviable.
In the entanglement with his first love girlfriend, he finally confirmed his heart and love for Mary
(but Let Tim in my mind roll the sheets with my first love and betray Mary. After that, I was found to save Mary. The story of Mary Su through crossing to make things happen again. The story of Mary Su was alive and strangled)
and then propose marriage and have a baby
. Some of the "big events" that made the audience look forward to happening
should have caused Tim's sister to have a car accident and his father died of cancer, right?
But these two things in the narrative of the whole movie also seems rather dull
, but in this segment and sister in crossing back through the past and it touches people see foggy
First and sister through the back stop to let her sister met her boyfriend Can you travel back afterwards? Then his daughter became a son?
And later through his sister in a car accident the day to get things back to the beginning and, like his sister is still injured occurred
anyway at this time to see a little bit confused somehow the film did not do more to explain the answer everyone is watching I can understand
there are about life third child and the actor's father died of association is
so true ... it is affecting to see the film

, but the movie has touched me the most is the two points
the first time Tim and Mary are married to encounter bad weather storm
I thought Tim would make the wedding come again, but when she asked Mary if she would like to choose a sunny day, she said NO.
In my opinion, this is indeed a terrible but very interesting and perfect wedding.
Another is the last time in Tim. When I crossed back, I played table tennis with
my father for the last time. The father won the game and the son gave him a kiss as the last gift.
Then they returned to Tim when they were children. They walked on the beach and played.
This is really interesting. very mixed feelings

and his father told the sick Tim secret of happiness
first is to continue to live day to day in his life like other people
have honestly second to start over every day
for the first time because of the tension and fear that we can not pay attention The beauty of this world, but the second time I can feel it.
Perhaps because of the protagonist’s superpowers, he can indeed experience the life again and feel the small beauty of the small defects in life.
But we are not living in the movie. We are just ordinary people who
watch this movie and wonder if I have the super power to travel through time and space,
like the protagonist, through time and space again and again to remedy the regrets in life.
Before I watched this movie, I used to think that if it was done this way, so many things would not happen, and so on.
Now thinking about it, the current life is indeed very good,
although there are always various situations. chagrin of remorse, etc., etc.
but also because it's funny how they seem fun ah we live
life is too perfect, if that is more boring ah
then have to spend for each person each day to cherish the moment and enjoy every moment The most precious memory

  • [Tim and Mary are in bed]

    Mary: So not such a bad day after all?

    Tim: No. It was pretty good, really. Very good day, actually, as it turns out.

    Mary: Well, that's a relief. Because it had been a very bad day, I thought I might have had to have had sex with you to make up for it.

    [she turns the light out]

    Mary: Goodnight.

    Tim: [he is lying blatantly and Mary knows it] It was a very, very bad day. It went very badly. I got fired from my job. And then I killed a man.

    [she turns the light back on]

    Mary: That is a very bad day.

    Tim: It's terrible.

    Mary: Yeah, the worst day ever. I'm so sorry.

  • [Mary wants another baby]

    Mary: I just thought that maybe it was time for the insurance baby.

    Tim: What?

    Mary: In case one of them is really smart. We don't want the other one to feel stupid their whole life. And if we had a third one then we could have *two* happy dummies. What do you think?

    [Tim realises that once another baby is born, he will never be able to go back to a time before that]

    Tim: [voiceover] It was the toughest decision of my life. Saying "yes" to the future meant saying "goodbye" to my dad - forever.
