As an animated film full of fantasy, the first half of the story is warm and touching, showing the happiness and loss in the life of an ordinary American family; the second half of the adventure story is gorgeous and stunning, with the help of 3D film technology , achieves breathtaking visual effects, and transforms many helpless situations in social real life into comedy endings one by one through means beyond reality. And if in real life, old man Carr is likely to spend the rest of his life in an orphanage, his house and land will be swallowed up by cunning real estate developers; and Xiao Luo, who lives in a divorced family, will also fail to to be loved by others. Watching the full movie, my heart was warm and a little heavy.
"Flying House" tells the story of the adventure journey of an old and a young. An old man named Carl and his childhood sweetheart and his wife who have the same dream of adventure, they hope to follow their idol adventurer to the legendary "Wonderland Waterfall" in their lifetime, but because of various fetters in life For a lifetime, until the death of his wife, Carl failed to fulfill their wishes. In the final stage of Carl's life, as if under the arrangement of fate, he and an 8-year-old child Ronaldinho finally embarked on an adventurous journey...
The spirit that runs through the entire film is - perseverance. Persistent pursuit of dreams, relentless, and it is never too late to act. The couple's dream is to go on an adventure to Wonderland Falls, and they've spent their entire lives preparing for that dream. Realistic setbacks over and over again delayed their dreams indefinitely. In the end, only Carl was left. He still did not give up their common dream of adventure. Carl set out on the road alone with a hut full of happy memories in every corner. .
Little fat Ronaldinho is also a persistent guy. From his self-introduction, it can be seen that his persistence is comparable to the stubbornness of the old man. In order to get a badge to help the old man, he was accidentally taken to the flying house and went on an adventure with the old man.
With pursuit, people will have spirit. The old-fashioned old Mi Mi became full of energy, high-spirited, full of energy, and seemed to be much younger all of a sudden.
The film also reflects some social problems. The old man is lonely, and Ronaldinho is also lonely. The old man is lonely because he has no one he loves; Ronaldinho is lonely because he is not accompanied by his parents, and he got the badge just to let his father accompany him for a while. Two lonely people long for more love, which is also a common problem in today's society.
The ending of the movie is warm. When two lonely people come together, accompany, encourage and complement each other, the world is full and full. An old man, a young man, and a dog are sitting on the street counting cars. This is the ending scene of the movie, and it is also the harmony that human beings long for.

    The review of the life of the old couple at the beginning of the film is undoubtedly the biggest tear point. They have had a very good and happy life. When they are old, they still love each other deeply. Common dreams take a risk at the end of life, just like children’s curiosity that is not afraid of everything, life and dreams, no matter how old they are, it is not an obstacle.
