find yourself

Looking back on this film after a few years
is still very, very moving

. When they were young, they fought on the battlefield and traveled around the world . When
they got old, they guarded huge sums of money and lived in seclusion in the manor

. In their life, there was a little boy, a group of dogs, a Pigs, a house, a piece of land,
and unwillingness to accept old age.
They shot at salesmen and drove away "relatives."
They bought all kinds of vegetable seeds, only to find out that they were all corn
. They had a small pond, but bought one
They buy flying saucers, second-hand lions from zoos, decommissioned planes from World War II...

When young people think of them, they
always praise them with envy.
At the last moment of their lives, they lived like real lions

.” Everything belongs to the boy who buried us in a broken garden next to that stupid lion"


Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most.
That people are basically good;
that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything;
that power and money, money and power mean nothing;
that good always triumphs over evil;
and I want you to remember this,
that love... true love never dies.
You remember that, boy. You remember that.
Doesn't matter if it's true or not.
You see, a man should believe in those things,
because those are the things worth believing in.

    1. American-style heroism. If you watch too much, you will get too tired and you won't catch a cold. At a glance, you can see that Americans are self-righteous, very Trump. 2. The script is very poor, the clues are confusing, the themes are unclear, and the two cores of the story have big flaws: it can't reflect the stalwart history of the two old men's heroes, and it can't capture the deep relationship between the uncle and the nephew. How are emotions built up step by step? In addition, the nephew's curiosity towards Jasmin turned out to be completely like gossip. 3. Osmond’s acting skills are really terrible. They all have spicy eyes. They are completely on the surface without any level. The characters are too flat. Many expressions pull me back to the "Sixth Sense" in minutes, and they are changing the voice, using the original sound. It's too ugly. PS: It turned out to be a film in 2003. I understand a little bit, but I still can't run at 2 or 3 o'clock.

    It's a fairy tale story, even if it's old-fashioned, it's funny, the lion and the dog are so cute!
