the play question., Reivew on Sing Street

In the beginning part, the father of the male protagonist proposed to "be like a man", which obviously became the Stated Theme of the whole film. By extension, it is to let the male protagonist grow from a boy to a man. In the Opening Image and subsequent Set-up sessions, the description of the male protagonist's N defects did not put him in a situation in which he was in urgent need of growth: he was actually a character who had an opinion and would fight against the world. And the whole story basically just amplifies this resistance. In other words, the growth arc of the male protagonist is not tortuous enough.
Character Setting: Take a look at the personal choices of the male lead. In the process of growing up, all the actions of the male protagonist were not placed in a dilemma that needs to be chosen by the screenwriter. Whether he decides to form a band, fight against the school, take his sister, or leave the family, there is no entanglement or choice, and the journey goes smoothly to the end.
Type analysis: After the male protagonist entered the school, he was originally out of tune with the entire atmosphere, which made people extremely sure that this would be an Institutionalized type, focusing on describing the disharmony and confrontation between the protagonist and the entire organization. But the only thing that troubled the male protagonist from beginning to end was a teacher who didn't show up for half a day, who didn't show much drama, and a big silly guy who gave in quickly. This villain offers little hindrance.
