endearing cunning ending

Not too important details mistakenly deducted one star, super fan added one star, for a movie for children, I gave it five stars. If it is for adults today, it will probably be minus one star. After all, this is a movie that belongs to the last century, and it follows the rhythm of the last century.

Besides the "unworthy of Kent's name" agent and the "Action Comics" and "S" logos that appear on the surface, there are many ideas that Superman stories will convey in the film, such as, people are not ready ; for example, you are the kind of person you choose to be.

For some reason, looking for something related to death education lately, the conversation about that deer is recorded below, smugly thought to be more straightforward than The Lion King, but softened with "soul" parlance die:

I know you're still sad about the deer, but that's not your fault. Death is part of life. It is wrong to kill, but there is nothing wrong with death.

will you die too?

Yes, someday.

will i die?

I have no idea. Although you are made of metal, you have feelings. You have a mind, so you have a soul. And the soul does not die.

My favorite thing about this movie is the ending.

Because the steel giant can summon parts by itself, the happy ending after that has become a logical and unobtrusive one. After successfully creating a tragedy, it has been reversed, and this can also be used as his head to pick up the nuclear bomb. The reason - it can be recovered anyway.

In other words, this arrangement is the best.

Due to the unknown origin of the steel giant and the fact that his abilities are too powerful, it is bound to be difficult for him to gain the approval of people. But if he "dies once" for the people, then everything is different. In comparison, if you use your own weapons to resolve the crisis, obviously you can't get better results than now. The statue erected means public approval, and it is clear that even if he "resurrects" later, someone will still remember him. The results appear to be better. The process seems to be cunning - of course people who watch the movie can think that the stupid iron giant just wants to learn Superman to play hand-to-hand... um...

How to reverse the ending to be convincing, and how to maximize the benefits for the characters in the ending, this is probably a better case.
