Even though the beginning of the film is a bit boring, it seems that the road ahead is elusive and there are too many unknowns shrouded in this surviving family. However, the second half was too amazing, and it seemed that everything was gradually on the right track-the younger son's condition improved and the Korean vegetable business negotiations were happily. However, life never walks according to plan. Life is like a box of unknown chocolates. Variables are everywhere. Perhaps the couple's disputing front and back shots are faintly hinting at the misfortune behind. The picture of grandma in the fire, the contrast between light and darkness is very strong, the fire is burning, it is very beautiful against the dark twilight, but the ultimate beauty is sadness... (I can't help but think of the portrait of the burning woman) Why grandma came to the United States Where is Minari? Maybe it is because after repeated "adding chaos", I finally want to do something, just find a spiritual sustenance. She was beside the flames, even teardrops reflected helplessness and despair, (when she came out, she seemed out of place with her surroundings, the more people laughed, the more she felt her pain points) maybe because of the Minari who came with her , The younger son is getting better, and at the end, the sister and brother hold her, and the group of three support her. What will happen in the future? Only the vast farms responded. (The mother is relatively ignorant of her daughter. She once said, "The son's heart may stop beating at any time." Because of illness, she seems to attach great importance to her son. But fate is impermanent, who knows what can happen in the next second? Refer to I think To eat your pancreas, there is a line roughly like this: "My life has a deadline because of my illness, but who can guarantee that you won't die in the next second, so in this way, you and I are just in the same situation. That's it." After a few sips of hot tea, I couldn't find my favorite food on a rainy night. Life is impermanent and life is endless.

    Korean immigrants pursue the American dream. The rhythm is relaxed one by one, bad luck and good fortune rotate, sorrow and joy alternate. There is not only the loose and delicate life style, the true chapter in the ordinary, but also the dramatic conflict and symbolic signs: the work of distinguishing the male and female chickens, the mobile housing on wheels, the tough and unremitting water celery, origami paper Airplanes mediate their parents' quarrels, veterans who carry their crosses on their backs and walk alone, the heart holes that are gradually healed in the farm environment, and the fire that makes people travel back to [burning] are both life breath and metaphorical meaning. Carrier. The editing of the movie (the drawer was pulled out and dropped-the matching editing of the chicken box overturned really surprised me), the soundtrack (not too strong, but indispensable), mixing (natural sound effects and sound connection transfer Field) are remarkable. Steven Yuan and Yin Ruzhen also performed well. The only problem is that there are more topics to discuss, and the arrangement is more evenly distributed, so it is inevitable that there is a lack of strength and depth. (8.3/10)

    South Korea's "Minari" species can live anywhere, making kimchi, stir-frying, and pharmaceuticals. It is a portrayal of a Korean family who started from scratch and worked hard to run a farm. They barely integrated into American society, and their mother and grandmother were obviously patriarchal to both children. Steven Yeon in another movie that burns down the house at the end...

Minari quotes

  • Soonja: Minari is truly the best. It grows anywhere, like weeds. So anyone can pick and eat it. Rich or poor, anyone can enjoy it and be healthy. Minari can be put in kimchi, put in stew, put in soup. It can be medicine if you are sick. Minari is wonderful, wonderful!

  • Jacob: They need to see me succeed at something for once.

    Monica: For what? Isn't it more important for them to see us together?

    Jacob: You go ahead and do what you want. Even if I fail, I have to finish what I started.
