2014 / United States / Drama, Comedy, Fantasy / Tom McCarthy / Adam Sandler, Steve Buscemi

In fact, I saw this movie a long time ago and I had an impression, but after too long, the plot was almost forgotten, so it was quite novel to watch this movie again.

Because of the mission of their group of people, his father left home when Max was very young. Max guarded the shoe store left by his father and guarded his mother and lived like this. But one day because the sewing machine burned out, I couldn't use it anymore. I remembered the old sewing machine my father had put in the grocery pile, but accidentally discovered a secret. Put on the shoes made with this sewing machine and you will experience this. The experience of the owner of the shoe, for him, was very pleasant and unexpected, and it started a particularly interesting time. Perhaps that's the case, he can become another person, and one day, become his father who has not returned home for a long time, to send his mother one last time.

It really touched me here. My mother kept her last breath, just want to see his husband, realize her dream, and support her alive. We have met, the breath is gone, and people leave.

The story after that is quite fantasy. I always feel that the following story is not very good. Sometimes the male protagonist seems to have a bit of IQ not online, and is a little bit disappointed. But I like the last part with my father.

It is a kind of happiness, but also a kind of responsibility. His father has been by his side, but it is a pity that his mother will never know.

    Max Simkin: Oh, man, that thing is great, Pop. Where-where did we get it?

    Abraham Simkin: The stitcher? Oh, that's a good story, actually. A long time ago, on the coldest of winter nights, a vagrant came knocking at the door of our shop. Your great-great-grandfather gave him shelter when no one else would. He fed the man, mended his shoes... In the morning, the vagrant...
