Not inspirational, just wake up

"Joey's Struggle" is about a girl who has been good at "creating" since childhood. In the siege of her ex-husband who lives in the basement, her mother who has not left soap operas for more than ten years, her father who has been frustrated in her career, her children who are waiting to be fed, and her deep despair about life. Recovering the self 17 years ago from nightmares, inventing the magic mop, and escaping from the twists and turns of investment, debt production, sales, advertising failure, personal access to shopping channels, patent disputes, etc., and suffered fatal blows When he was about to go bankrupt, he sneaked into the thief's cave by himself, twisted his long hair, interviewed the culprit behind the scenes, knocked him down with a series of ironclad evidence, put on sunglasses, and left the battlefield calmly... twists and turns, ups and downs. In the end, she turned into an entrepreneur, helping more people turn ideas into products.
The movie is pretty decent and tells a good story. If there is any merit, it is that it uses dreamy, humorous, fiery, and wild shots to depict Joey's life where he can't laugh or cry, and it expresses the despair, cramps, and sadness in the character's heart. There's always a moment when the audience feels like they're Joey. At the end of the film, the indifferent female entrepreneur is in the "big house", giving everyone who seeks investment a chance to present their ideas. There is no light of success, no pride or pity on her face, just a difficult rebirth. People calmly do more meaningful things and live the life they want. Joey's calm, let me know that this movie has nothing to do with "success" or "inspirational", it only blesses everyone who is caught in the contrast between reality and ideals, to be able to face their hearts honestly and stand up , find your own life.
But the film still lacks surprises.

Joy quotes

  • 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?

    [picks up a mop]

    Joy: This stupid, stupid idea!

    [throws the mop down]

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