A more creative anti-hero setting, but eventually turned into a simple and rude spoof of a cult movie: Personal evaluation of "Magic Child"

Simple and rude plot, this film is not actually a blackened version of the super, just a shell setting, the plot idea has been clearly explained in the little male protagonist's biology class, the evil high-level aliens will their own Descendants are sent to lower civilization planets and raised by local creatures. When they grow up, they can awaken their abilities to conquer and rule the local creatures. After all, it is still an old-fashioned alien invasion movie, but it is expressed in this way. It's a bit interesting, but unfortunately, the IQ of the hero and heroine in the whole film fluctuates. Although there is a foreshadowing in the middle of the film, at the end, when the heroine tries to kill the alien child with debris from the alien spaceship, she fails. It caused the whole foreshadowing to have no effect at all. This ending is simply a failure. Such handling not only destroys the integrity of the whole story, but also makes the whole film a pure brainless spoof cult movie.

    I've always thought that aliens coming to Earth shouldn't be a good thing.

    [the dark music gets louder and the scene cuts to black to the film's title as the end credits, post-credit scenes, and the song "Bad Guy" by Billie Eilish begin to play]

  • [first of the two post-credit scenes featuring The Big T]

    The Big T: The mainstream media as usual tries to sell you all a load of BULLSHIT!

    [second of the two post-credit scenes featuring The Big T]

    The Big T: Just like that half-man/half-sea creature capsizing fishing vessels in the South China Sea. Like what we were just talking about last week. Some kind of witch-woman who chokes people out with ropes and cords. They are all out there, they are all waiting, and they're all GONNA EAT A FUCKING BREAKFAST UNLESS WE GET OUR SHIT TOGETHER AND DO SOMETHING!
