about time

I've been wanting to watch this movie for a long time and finally finished it today. Before watching it, I always thought it was a love movie. The plot in front was really dull. After watching it, I realized that this is a movie about love, family, friendship, and it's a rare good. The movie is really good, more than emotional

The previous plot was relatively slow. The first time I watched it with Mr. Wang, I saw that he felt boring, so I didn't continue to ask him to watch it and did other things. But after watching it today, I told him that it was a good movie. He also said Next time you watch it with me, I think he will love this movie as much as I do

Favorite sentence in it "Every day of our life is a journey in time. All we can do is, do our best to cherish this wonderful journey."

Ordinary like you and me, we don't have the male protagonist's ability to travel through time and space, and we can't correct all kinds of bad things in life. We cannot go back to the past all the time to see our deceased father... All we can do is to cherish our ordinary life full of surprises.

The male protagonist could have traveled back to the past to meet his father, but the wife wanted a third child because the child was formed by a specific sperm at a specific time. Once the child was born in the past, it would affect the future life. The child is not that one. So when the third child was born, he traveled back for the last time to say goodbye to his father, gave him a kiss, and then traveled with his father to the time when the two of them walked together as children. I was always moved by affection.

In real life, I always tend to ignore my relationship with my parents because they are too strict with me, so I don't cherish the chat time with them, and I'm always alone at home. I want to get rid of this bondage. It's too much for me to treat their love for me as a bondage. I know it's hard to change right away, but I will slowly cherish the time I spend with them. Just like Mr. Wang said, I should also get along with my family and understand their needs. And hobbies I know I'm naive and I'm bad in many aspects, but fortunately I know my shortcomings and have the opportunity to improve

There is so much to say about this movie

I don’t know since when I wanted a family so much that I liked the children and wanted to protect them Family, a kind husband, and a bunch of lovely kids.

But I know that my mind is very naive, and I hope that in the next few years, I can become a person who can organize a family.

If I could travel through time and space, I would take back the words that hurt my family. I would be as gentle as possible with those around me. I would choose to go to another high school.

"It seems that it is easy for us to ignore the current life and many good times. When all the time has been let down and wasted, we can pick up a certain period from memory, pat the dust deposited on it, and sigh that it is a the best"

After watching the movie, there is a feeling of enlightenment. Yes, there are many beautiful things in the moment. I have not noticed that living a good life is also great.

  • [Tim and Mary are in bed]

    Mary: So not such a bad day after all?

    Tim: No. It was pretty good, really. Very good day, actually, as it turns out.

    Mary: Well, that's a relief. Because it had been a very bad day, I thought I might have had to have had sex with you to make up for it.

    [she turns the light out]

    Mary: Goodnight.
