Pseudo-thriller and pseudo-magic children’s growing up film

Relying on magic, it looks like a horror, but it actually tells the story of a child growing up.

Faced with family changes, the death of both parents is a catastrophe for the teenager.

The teenager came to his uncle's house, faced with the new environment, full of fear and unknown.

When I arrive at the new school, in such a lonely psychological world, I need a friend to express my heart. Friends are so precious and rare.

Freak! Usually, it is a guy who is not so popular at school and has his own insights, but in an environment that is incompatible with the public, he has become a freak, an incompatible alternative, and has become a target of campus bullying.

All of these have created a depressing childhood for teenagers.

This is a movie that you can know the end when you watch it from the beginning. It is also a model movie. The teenager faces difficulties, bravely overcomes difficulties, gains courage, lets go of inner ties, bravely challenges campus bullying, and gains friendship. It's all routines.

However, the finished film seems a bit unsuitable. It’s a bit scary for teenagers, and a bit mentally retarded for adults

In the growth of adolescents, their perspective is different from that of adults. For children in adversity, self-salvation is truly powerful.

    I usually like the children in the movie, but I can't like this little boy, I don't like it.

    I might be surprised to see Kate paired with Mr. Black in another movie. But please, this is a Halloween movie... It's not that Xiao Zhengtai is not cute, it's just that her acting is not lovable...

The House with a Clock in Its Walls quotes

  • [first lines]

    Jonathan Barnavelt: [writing letter] Dear Lewis: Enclosed, please find one bus ticket and two silver dollars for your trip to Michigan. I'm really sorry about the loss of your parents. Your mom was my sister, so that makes you family. And I'll do my best to make you feel right at home. As Einstein said, life is like a bicycle. To stay balanced, you got to keep moving forward. And so will we. I look forward to meeting you. Your Uncle Jonathan. PS Sorry for the stain on the letter. That's chocolate.

  • Jonathan Barnavelt: We don't know where the clock is or what it does, except something horrible. No, we gotta do the responsible thing: lie to the kid.
