Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium--Maintain Confidence
Wilfred 2022-08-01 13:28:14
To be honest, the plot of this movie is a bit too simple. I didn't expect it to end like this. But, at the end, when Natalie Portman flicked her fingers and started conducting, when the music started, when the toys in the toy store came back to life, my heart seemed to light up! Don't look at its shortcomings, look at its advantages. After all, I am not a professional film critic. As far as I am concerned, the theme of "confidence" makes this film shine. We never believe in our own potential. We always want to hear from others, "You're fine." I always want to hear from others. To gain strength, as everyone knows, what we need most is our own strength, which really comes from our own strong inner strength.
