Last night's movie was way better than I was expecting it to be. It was a beautiful and touching movie with everything a good movie should have; conflict, character development, cuteness, joy, sadness, anger, laughter, and little kids that will melt your heart. I really liked the character development, and I think you all agree. I wanted to punch that one dad in the face, then slap him and tell him to get his life together.
The contrast between the two families is what really made the movie though. Those kinds of families are everywhere, and can somewhat be relatable. I come from a family that likes hard work and success, but also has fun in the process. I know that's how Im going to want my family to be.
The movie should really be called Like Son, Like Father because the father ends up learning from his son. I like the concept that the adults learn from the kids and not the other way around. Kids can be smarter than adults sometimes. Adults over think everything, and worry constantly, always concerned about something. Children live life a minute at a time not knowing what is in front of them, they don't worry about the big things. It sucks that worrying about the future starts at a young age nowadays. I mean, they are already informing kids on college. We just had a kids day here at HU telling kids about their future. As I recall there were kindergardeners here. KINDERGARDEN???? And yeah, I know that's not all they did here, but still. When I was that young I thought my future was going to be about becoming a principle so I can allow roller skates in school. My priorities were sorted out very well at that point in time.
I really did like this movie, and I will probably watch it again at some point in time (:
