This could have been an interesting movie...

To be honest, I was attracted by the poster of this movie~囧rz
big head doll, simple lines, cute shape.
A pure and serene blue that stands out against the placid yellow background.
Not the kind of deliberate free and easy, but some helpless silence.
Reminds me of the big-headed robot doll in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy,
one blue and one silver.

Years have passed, and Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) in "Friends" is already presbyopic.
Looking back, [Friends] is a work from nearly 15 years ago, time flies, time flies.
The male protagonist, Scott Prydgast, has no impression at all, and has a feeling of Ben Stiller.

The plot is relatively simple, similar to "Sleepwalking", the fusion of estranged relatives and children.
But in the design of this work, the big head doll is a good gimmick.
In the empty fields and the long road, under the plain blue sky and white clouds, every move of the big blue-headed doll
seems to be a symbolic MV, which ripples little by little in my heart.
Maybe, I will also have such a dream-to become that big blue-headed doll and keep running...

Yes, this could have been an interesting movie,
but the level of filming and actors are so outrageous!
The blunt switching and deliberate expressions almost ruined the first half of the film.
In the second half, because the big-headed doll has no expressions and the movements are simple, it feels much smoother.

Life films focus on two words: transformation.
Whether it is a change in attitude towards life or a change in the relationship between people, it
is the focus of the description of life films.
It is often the various contradictions at the beginning that are gradually reconciled after transformation.

But the film's handling of "transition" is too hasty.
Even if the transformation is successful with a few sloppy and reluctant strokes,
it is really disproportionate to the previous protagonist's efforts.

The little animation in the ending song is very interesting, there are many parodies, you can laugh at Bo Jun~^_^
