It's a science fiction film, it's shuttle in dreams, it's about psychological healing, it's about the process of finding oneself. A little sad, a little warm, and a little retro, a little black humor, and finally settled in love.
In a time and space similar to the real world, the male protagonist is the youngest son of an entrepreneur. He was diagnosed with mild schizophrenia, and became an alien who was discriminated against in the family. The female protagonist could not let go of the accidental death of her sister, and the relationship with her mother has always been. unfixable. Both of them underwent a drug experiment. During the experiment, the intelligent system responsible for dreaming evolved human emotions, and because of painful emotions, they accidentally interfered with the experimentation process of the male and female protagonists with a "drop of tear". Connecting the two together, the two souls groping for a way out in loneliness unexpectedly approached each other in dreams, warming each other.
They were not saved where they were seeking help. Instead, the system there and the doctor in charge of the development had their own problems that were difficult to solve. Irony or metaphor, no matter how advanced the technology is, only oneself can save mankind. About that complex and soft inner world, maybe it can only be kept by the person he trusts the most in reality, if that person can find it.
The real world in the film is rainy and rainy, but there is a lot of sunshine in the dream, so everyone is eager to escape from the unbearable reality, but will the dream come true? This discouraged film has a warm and crazy ending, like receiving an easter egg.
Emma Stone and Jonah Hill contributed wonderful acting skills. At first they were attracted by the lineup, and finally found a treasure.
