A pointless trip, not to mention bizarre (at least please don't translate the title like that)

The content that the movie wants to express is very jumpy, but the actual viewing experience is not good, and it always makes people feel like "Did you just watch a little bit of distraction" - even if the situation comes back after the event. It's also not laudable about the journey, since my mother is a scientist, why can't I understand the value of winning to help TS go to Washington? During the whole trip, the protagonist's luggage, activities, etc. are completely unsustainable. All the details that can make an impression appear before and after the trip, and these details do not seem to help the film itself to express much, and the trivial is deposited.
Several French films I've seen recently have children as protagonists (like Je m'appelle Elisabeth), but none of the stories told are the minds of a body of that age - even with such a mature/intelligent child, I don't think The same as the movie describes. The director just borrowed a child's body to think as an adult, and then switched back to the child's position to form an inexplicable perception. This kind of processing is very difficult, and at least this film did not handle it well.

    "The Strange Journey of Teenage Speyway" is a touching realist fairy tale. Based on science and technology, the film eventually invented an anti-scientist perpetual motion machine. However, these are not the focus of Genet's tragicomedy, its real theme is growth that connects life and death. Cowboy Heroes and Doctor Creatures both live in dead worlds, as announced by Little TS. So he dragged his heavy luggage (history) from the shadows to the spotlight, but you found that this perpetual motion machine, which relies on kinetic energy, finally healed the family.

    What is special about water droplets is that they always find the path of least resistance, which is just the opposite for humans.
