Halfway through the film, I knew that the film was about psychology, that giants didn't actually exist, and I knew the whole plot. You can watch a 2017 movie "When the Monster Knocks on Your Door", that movie is very similar to this movie, like a brother, so if you've seen that movie before, watch this one again , you know the whole plot from the moment you feel deja vu. Let me tell you how similar the two films are.
In this giant, the little girl's father died early, and her mother was seriously ill. The little girl's psychological state materialized into a giant. Her fear and helplessness were represented by a giant. She immersed in her own spiritual world. However, in the end, she She defeated the giant in her heart. Although her mother died, she faced the trauma of her heart and got out of the haze.
In this movie, the monster is knocking on the door, the little boy's father married a new lover and left home, and his mother got cancer, so the helpless little boy was helpless, lonely, painful and overwhelmed. A huge tree man was transformed into a giant tree man. The tree man's illusion was intertwined with the real world. The tree man told the little boy three philosophical stories. The content of these stories is also the representation of the little boy's inner world and real situation. At the end, the little boy gave his own answer, he conquered the nightmare in his heart, walked out of the haze, returned to reality, accepted reality, although His mother eventually died too.
I prefer the earlier movie "When the Monster Knocks on the Door". Through the creation of a suppressed atmosphere and the gray tone, it truly conveys the mood of the little boy, and the complex mental journey is told through three philosophical stories by Shuren. Presented, and the urgency of the tree man asking the little boy to exchange a real story, pushes the film to a climax, and that climax is also understood by the little boy subconsciously, and the event that will come eventually cannot be avoided. Affair - Facing the death of his mother, he faced the heart and passed the test of the heart.
