some disappointing stories
Madisyn 2022-03-24 09:01:47
The problems that often occur in biographical films are the confusion and procrastination of the background of the story, the blunt characters (here is the grandmother) appearing bluntly and thinking of sensationalism, and the story turns so fast that it is easy to guess the plot and not understand the meaning of the film. . I especially like the sequence and rhythm of "Benjamin Button", which is smooth and comfortable. Joy's story wants to express too many things, but it doesn't focus if she uses too much force, and it becomes a mediocre inspirational story. The dispensable characters have a lot of space and are not allowed, so they are messed up. The overall story is three stars, including one star for the acting of the eldest cousin.

Cristy 5 Years Old: Mimi said that you were the one born to help carry us on to success.
Joy: No, Christie, Mimi was wrong. The world does not *give* you opportunities, the world destroys the opportunities. It breaks the heart. I should have listened to my mother, when I was 10 years old. I should have spent the rest of my life watching TV and hiding from the world like my mother. So I don't want to hear anymore about Mimi. She was wrong, she had her head in the clouds, and it was full of stupid ideas, and it gave me stupid ideas. But this?

Joy: This stupid, stupid idea!

Mimi: [narrating] She'd put up with just about anything... until when she had to bring the hammer down - she brought the hammer down.
