You read that right, the title is this, the opposite of the title of the movie Hunting the Savages. Because I think that the protagonist and his adoptive family, who were considered "barbarians" at the beginning, are the kind of warmth and simplicity that modern society lacks. The film satirizes the so-called "civilized man": the slow-moving, incompetent police officer and the head of the mean orphanage. It is this kind of "savage" that is praised. It is not so much to say that the "savage" is chased in a mess, but it is better to say that it arouses our moving step by step while watching the movie, and is "hunting" the beautiful side of human nature.
And this movie is not propped up by looks at all. The content is detailed and the rhythm is reasonable, and the story reflects an independent growth. Responsibility, responsibility, and warmth. The protagonist is stubborn and independent. From the beginning of the little rebellious "barbarian", after the funny part along the way, he becomes a little warm man. From the perspective of a "little barbarian", the film has a resistance to hypocritical justice and reasonable humanistic care. The last "racing" was very refreshing. Of course, when the protagonist went to the nursing home to pick up his grandfather, tears almost fell.
The scene in the jungle is undoubtedly an important part of the film, and it is also the transformation of the protagonist step by step. When we feel a little bit, when the laughter is repeated, we are also "hunted" in our hearts.
