Seeing that this movie is classified as a thriller, I can only say that the big brother in the classification did not watch the movie.
The story begins with a little girl playing with black magic, traps, stabbing her head at school, and skipping classes at will, in order to practice her mission - to hunt giants. However, the truth is that the girl's mother is terminally ill, and the little girl, who is unwilling to face reality, imagines that a giant is threatening her mother's life and even the life of the entire town. She is an unsung hero who silently hunts down giants and protects everyone.
Because of being maverick in school, little girls are inevitably ostracized and bullied by female students who are taller than themselves. But she didn't care what happened at school, didn't care if she had friends, didn't care if she was expelled. In a lonely hunt, she met a girl who took the initiative to communicate with her - Sophia, who had transferred from the UK. Sophia listens to her story, but also can't understand her thoughts and become conflicted. But Sophia did not give up this friend and stayed by her side all the time. Another person who was unwilling to give up her was the school's psychological counselor. Although the girl had difficulty communicating and was slapped by the girl, she embraced the girl with her greatest tolerance.
It was these people who cared about her that gave the girl the courage to face reality. When a rare tornado arrives, the girl overcomes her own giant, her inner fear, and chooses to face her seriously ill mother. As the little girl said at the end, people are more powerful than they think.
In the beginning, the giants imagined by the little girl appeared from time to time, making it impossible to determine whether these were imagined by the little girl or were real. As the story slowly unfolds, some clues are constantly being revealed. The girl would rather live in a cluttered corner than go to the second floor (because her mother's hospital bed is on the second floor). When the girl chatted with the psychological counselor, she said that she could conquer giants and even death (implied She was able to kill the giant who brought her mother's death), her friend Sophia saw the girl's mother in the hospital bed on the second floor and was so surprised that she threw the cup away and ran away, the little girl's secret weapon is facing reality It looks ridiculous when it's in the middle and doesn't work. . .
When the girl finally dared to face her mother, her mother asked her if she was afraid of storms, and she replied that she was not. Her mother said she wasn't afraid either, because storms are sometimes a different kind of scenery. Just as the giant finally helped the little girl see reality. The tribulation is just like that. Before the tribulation comes, it is as terrifying as a storm and invincible as a giant. However, when you face the tribulation head-on and hit it head-on, you will find that it is not invincible, and after the tribulation there is peace.
There is no particularly gripping plot or setting in the movie, and the whole movie has a tepid taste. The warmth between the last mother and daughter is slightly touching, but not heart-wrenching or touching. There is a slight growing pain.
Not everyone will like it, but I'm sure kids with similar experiences will get something out of it.
The origin of the film's name: A clip from the life of a little girl and her mother, explaining a baseball game a hundred years ago. The name of the contestant inside is the name of the little girl's secret weapon. The opponent he defeated was the Giants.
This weapon is a clue to the movie, and it keeps appearing to promote the development of the plot from time to time.
