The story takes place in a family of three. The protagonist is timid and cowardly and likes to avoid everything, but he has the talent of a magician; the protagonist's brother is enthusiastic and cheerful, with a good IQ, but no magic talent; his mother loves two children; his father died young.

The story takes place on the protagonist's birthday. He finds that a gift left by his father records how to make the deceased walk on earth again for a day. The protagonist made a mistake to use magic to summon their father's lower body, but the magician was gone, so with the help of the older brother, the brothers began to look for the magic stone. On the way, the younger brother was forced to overcome his cowardice, and the relationship between the brothers became better and better. Finally, they found the magician and summoned the father at the last moment of the sun setting.

    Star-Lord's Insect Mouth Cannon. I can see through Pixar's routine. Technology + sensationalism = Wang Zhuang combination, the audience's tears are punctuated. The title of the film is not translated into "Magic Story", what does it feel less~

    It's a once-in-a-lifetime to see a Pixar movie in a movie theater without two pairs of glasses. Overall, it's not Pixar, but the last scene can be added with some stars... If there is no A113 Easter egg reminder at the end, I think I've watched a DreamWorks animation like How to Train Your Dragon! ?
