A film about the growth of family members

What the future is, is yet to come.

It is precisely because it has not arrived, so I have expectations and longings. It is the yearning of human beings for a better life, and it is the hope that everyone and everything can develop to the better side.

The film tells about such a small family, in the slow running-in, it gradually tends to be harmonious and everyone adapts to each other.

From male and female friends to husband and wife, from husband and wife to parents, and from only child to elder brother, all need to experience growth and adapt to the change of identity.

Probably because children are more imaginative, so the movie allows us to go back to the past and the future from the perspective of children, and use the timeline to solve the current contradictions.

On the one hand, we have seen the growth of Xiaojun. From several fantasies—puppy, future, mother, great-grandfather, and himself, we have learned empathy, responsibility, sensibleness, bravery, and caring for his family.

On the other hand, the movie also sees the growth of the parents from some details. The father never knew how to do housework until he was able to take care of his children calmly, and became a father who took care of both work and family; the mother changed from an irritable and self-righteous temper to a more gentle and virtuous one.

This is a movie about family. Especially in dealing with the relationship between two children, how parents deal with it, also gives some references.

Although there are no children, but just going through the process of marriage, you will find that changing from boyfriend and girlfriend to husband and wife does require a lot of consideration, and you will encounter problems that were not a problem before and become a big problem now.

I hope that my marriage with my wife can also find a balance in plainness, bickering, and romance.

    D / Although the setting of time-travel can still poke me (every time...), but the overall atmosphere is still very pretentious. There are serious and big truths that can’t be called metaphors on the table, but it is still incomplete and conservative to give the specific spiritual power of beliefs. On the contrary, in the glimpses of the past, I feel a little bit of historical cover that the creator may be unconscious. Where does the courage to face the future go to regain it?

    Watching animations on the IMAX screen is really cool; but Mamoru Hosoda is really boring this time. PS. The architect's settings are really detailed. This house is what the architect would design. The CAD and 3d Max on the computer screen are very detailed, and the books on the bookshelf are also very realistic. One page is still Venturi's mother's house

Mirai quotes

  • Mirai: You did it again. You tried to hit me with your bullet train even after Mom told you not to.

    Kun: But it wasn't a bullet train!

    Mirai: You aren't supposed to use a bullet train to hit people.

    Kun: It was a Super Azusa.

    Mirai: [angrily] I don't care what kind it was!

    [scoffs]

    Mirai: And why can't you be a little nicer to Mom?

    Kun: I don't know, I just can't.

    Mirai: It's her one day off from work. She doesn't get many and she has to spend it fighting with you. Come on, try.

    Kun: [sniffling] I know... I'm not cute.
