The family man tells how Jack gave up his love in order to win the brilliant achievements of his career, and how to wake up in the midnight dream that the love family is the one he can't give up. Such a seemingly plain but meaningful story. The directors need the audience to comprehend, like Jack, what is the most important thing for a person. People should know how to own it in time and cherish it with all its strength.
Undoubtedly, in reality, we would not have such good luck as Jack. After 13 years of success, there are still unmarried and still beautiful and charming first loves waiting there. Therefore, people who are blinded by reputation rights and do not know how to repent, should they spare a night to dream of returning to earth and real life? Stay down-to-earth and live a real life. Be a good father who warms up a bottle of milk for his child in the morning and fixes his little bicycle, and a good husband who sings on his lover’s birthday and makes neighbors and friends envious. And after careful consideration, we desperately pursue those illusory and meaningless things at the same time, have we unknowingly lost the most precious things behind us?
At the end of the movie, a slowly rising plane appeared in the narrow window frame of my cabin until it turned into a black spot and disappeared from sight. I don't know if there will be a seat that belongs to me on the next flight home. I just hope that when I finally understand it, it won't be too late.
