Thank you Inception Movie Group for the first movie viewing event. Tony... Ah, it's not that Uncle Dongmu is still in high spirits, and his acting and directing skills are still online. Let’s talk a little bit about Tucao, Mr. Dongmu didn’t wear a seat belt while driving in the whole movie! ! Don't learn from him! !

The following contains spoilers, please read selectively. Uncle Stone, played by Uncle Dongmu, is an unreliable red-necked old farmer who forgets his daughter's wedding because he loves flowers and grass. Instead, relying on the old driver's safe driving, no accident and no violation records, he was tempted by Xiao Lao Mo to become an elderly poisonous radish, ah, no, it is a poisonous mule. In fact, Mr. Stone was not a drug mule for himself. At first, it was to pay for his granddaughter's wedding drinks. Later, it was for the old comrade-in-arms activity center, then for the old cadre's ice rink, and then to pay for his granddaughter's tuition, and rarely for himself. However, due to the pun setting of "mule" and "honest man", it may also be that after being abandoned by his family, he hopes to make money to make up for his guilt in the first half of his life. More than ten times of transportation, with a weight of hundreds of kilograms, Uncle Stone and The old Mexican drug dealers even formed a strange tacit understanding. By changing the tires of the passing black people, they called him Nego, and they took the escort Lao Mo to the white restaurant to eat sandwiches. Finally, they also served as the life mentor of the small leader, successfully shaping the An image of an old white man with a red neck and a tofu heart with a knife mouth. At the end of the film, the death of Uncle Stone's wife, he ignored the death threat of the drug dealer boss and returned to his wife to save his family, and then he pleaded guilty in court. The lens Uncle Stone returned to his old job as a gardener in prison. Maybe this is the ultimate happiness of not forgetting the original intention.

    The whole film actually has a good look and feel, and it is still very familiar to the old man. But at the end, the dialogue between Bradley and the old man, "Reconciliation with the family, the family is the most important" is too blunt and an embarrassing line, because the film does not focus on Bradley's family at all, so he talks to a complete It is very abrupt for outsiders to talk about family with their hearts out. The previous foreshadowing about missed anniversaries at the Waffle House was definitely not enough to bring out a convincing family theme. The old man's family line is also very general, and it is difficult for people to identify with fragmented contradictions. The crime part of the film is good, the family drama is terrible.
