This story can be said to have two clues, one is homer's dream pursuit, and the other is his relationship with his father. On his father's side, it represents reality and is an obstacle to his dream pursuit, but there are also right The propellant of his dreams, his teacher. The first turning point of the story is the forest fire, after this turning point, homer is forced to give up his rocket dream and burn down their observation deck, but life goes on, so comes the second turning point - His father's admission to the hospital caused by the mine accident made his road to his dream become more remote, but his relationship with his father was eased because of this. Want it? If there is no turning point - the teacher's illness, perhaps homer will really inherit his father's business, but it is precisely because of this that no one regrets and disappoints in the end. The four young men persisted and worked hard and succeeded. It is unfortunate that a teacher suffers from a tumor, but it is also fortunate that a teacher has raised children who are worthy of his pride. On the road of chasing his dream, although homer has twists and turns, he has a constant partner, a mother who understands and supports him, and a townsman who works together to help him in the end. I think in the end, when the townspeople help him, it is probably for himself With the hope of our own descendants, we can no longer dig coal, no longer rely on the oil field that is about to be depleted, and do not have to risk huge lives. When the last rocket broke through the sky, it also gave them courage, carrying the hope and hope of the townspeople. Dreams are also eager to get out of the coal forest and go to the world. PS: The technical issues are shallow, and the above personal views are welcome to discuss. This is the first time I write such a long film review, there must be many shortcomings, please give me more advice.

    The technique is basically the general level of American films, and it should be able to shoot better now. What is more interesting is that the film combines the background of the Cold War, young people chasing dreams (poor boys grow up to be heroes), father-son relationship and the decline of the mining industry. Among them, the father-son relationship is the most touching, especially the father.

    In the movie, the boy from the small town really entered NASA. In reality, this frustrated child star later became a heartthrob. In fact, it doesn’t matter if his dreams are not reflected in reality. In those years, their days were so burning. Sense, this is important.
