Every moment must be meaningful

On the plane back to Shanghai from Kunming, I once watched the beginning of "Click" amidst the constant roar of the engine. I admired one of the characters for his dedication to his identity and name: "My name is Habib, not Ha. Bibaba! Habibaba is bubble gum, I am a prince! Not bubble gum!!”

At night , I suddenly thought of the Arab prince who had swearing to be a bubble gum, so he immediately started and took the trouble, first import the files into T61, and then connect T61 to TV one by one. It is equipped with two cushions, a plate of braised duck buns, a plate of melon seeds, two moon cakes with fresh meat, and a pot of frozen grapefruit tea. Have a laugh.

The first half made me and the artillery amused. At that time, Michael was a popular architect in a certain company. His wife was good-looking, and his son and daughter were well-behaved. The relationship between his pet dog Golden Retriever and the toy duck was also in full swing. It was a matter of course for him to live well. But the problem is that he is unhappy, very, very unhappy. In order to make more money, he is so busy that his family picnic plan is far away. He can't even remember the various remote controls at home. Know which is which. On a tragic night when several attempts to turn on the TV failed, he couldn't bear it. He rushed into the store in the middle of the night to buy the universal remote control—he got it, and the story began.

This is not an ordinary machine. It can not only remotely control electrical appliances, or in other words, its main function is not remotely controlled electrical appliances at all—magical, it can actually control Michael’s life—like every smart person who loves himself, he is very Learn to fast forward quickly, skip those bad things that you don’t like, such as quarrels, eating with elderly parents, such as the long wait before promotion, he is like a dragonfly with water, flying across the dark. On the surface of the water, only stay for a while at the moment of festivity.

However, life is not water after all, there are too many people and things, and after skipping, they will never be seen again, and will never be repeated. Michael became the president of the company at supersonic speed, but because of this he was aging early. He didn't recognize his grown-up son and daughter. He didn't know that his wife had fallen into the arms of others, and even missed the dying side with his old father-you can play it back. , You can watch, but you can't change it anymore. In the moments that used to be annoying, the trivial demands of the wife, the noise of the children, the nagging of the parents, and even the hypocrisy of the boss, all became very, very, very precious.

There are two scenes. One is the replay of the old father who came to the office to invite Michael to dinner and was ruthlessly rejected. That is the last part of their father and son; the other is that the old Michael pulls out the needle from his body and rushes into the rain desperately to persuade his son. "Family first", I burst into tears. The lost time cannot be replicated a second time, and it cannot make up for the most skin-conscious pain.

However, the director apparently took care of the fragile hearts of American audiences. In the end, he told everyone that with regard to the remote control for life, it was nothing but a great autumn dream made by the exhausted Michael on the sample bed of the supermarket. In fact, everything was still too late. This ending relegated the film to a fable, but fortunately it still touched me a lot.

Family first, every moment of sadness or joy must have meaning.

    A male employee walked to my office and said that he was going to resign. I said, don’t talk about this, you first bring me a big bucket of lubricating oil. ——This is called sexual harassment

    I really like the heroine and the male protagonist is also very good, but it feels like this movie is very similar to Jim Carrey's ace god
