Warriors, no explanation needed

How can they really let go of the past after years of adventure? They are still warriors. But they are also lonely, always looking for excitement, taking risks, not wanting to be old, and unwilling to truly "receive".

The appearance of Victor has added a lot of fun to them. He is such a clever little man :)

American dramas have been breaking our three views, look, Victor is such a good child, and his mother is the master of money. It's not as the saying goes, if there is a mother, there will be a son. Why do American TV series keep telling me that if there is a mother, there is no son? This gave me another discount on the values ​​I had just established. Perhaps it was at the beginning of a man, his nature was good, and Victor met two lovely old men before he was broken, and the turning point of life always appeared when you were most desperate.

I don't know why the film's title was "Second-hand Lions". It can be said that there are not many second-hand lion scenes they bought, which can be said to be an understatement. It was originally a lion bought by the two old men for adventure. Due to illness, Victor decided to keep it in captivity and named it Jasmine, the uncle's legendary lover's name. After hearing this, the uncle quit, got angry and left, yes, let's not talk about the past, but the thoughts in my heart have never diminished.

I always feel that there are too many plots in the movie that have not been explained clearly. The main plot is based on the story of two old men roaming the rivers and lakes. Maybe the screenwriter thinks that it is all men. This story does not meet the public's taste, so there is a princess.

There is a very funny picture, the princess was about to commit suicide, the uncle rushed out of the siege with one to one hundred, not to mention how cowardly the fighting process, the princess's posture at that time, that pose, actually held a dagger high in the lace veil, under the moonlight When the sword light flashed, the uncle found her and rescued the beloved woman.

Director, can you be more realistic? It is too easy to expose, we are embarrassed to say that we are not watching a play.

In the end, the farce that Victor didn't tell his mother and future father even though he found out where the money was hiding ended, Victor returned to the two old men, grew up happily, and became a cartoonist. Until the two old men left in an accident on a plane, they just had to toss, but they admired their attitude towards life. (⊙v⊙)

Perhaps in the early 2000s, in most movies, the better the good, the worse the bad. The characters' personalities are not multi-faceted, but relatively single. This movie can't be said to be too brilliant, it's okay, everyone is happy, everyone has a good home, and we don't have to investigate too much about what happened. Yeah, the background music interlude is very cheerful and nice ^_^
