You think the world is under your control, and you think that all achievements are due to your own hard work, but suddenly one day, you find that the world is not what you understand, and there is a higher level beyond real life. Humans or humanoids manipulate the world. Your life is nothing but a route already planned in someone else's book.
When all this comes, you will get the highest right in the world - to become the President of the United States, but at the cost of leaving the dream lover and developing independently in your own field. How to choose? Emotional or rational?
Few people face such a choice, after all, the probability of becoming the President of the United States is 1 in 6 billion, and this choice is not through later efforts, but is chosen at birth. Matt Damon is faced with such a choice in the story.
It happened that the US election had just ended, so at the beginning of the film, when I saw Matt Damon's campaign scene, a strong sense of familiarity came over me. From a senator to the president, any promotion of office is done in this way. The general election in the United States is entertaining, but the process of election is also a popularization of political awareness and patriotic education for the people. The congressman played by Matt Damon is young, handsome, clean and innocent, and is deeply loved by the people. His speech was echoed and applauded by countless people. Corresponding to the real life, Trump and Hillary's campaign, the film seems more campaign imagination.
However, people's choices are always easy to be manipulated. When the vote was approaching, Matt's pranks in school when he was young were widely published in major media publications.
At this time, the Destiny Planning Bureau appeared. All men in black, mysterious but capable of turning reality. (I can’t help but complain about the translation of the domestic movie name, and the finishing touch. I know the general content of the movie before it opens.) Even those people in black who are higher than ordinary people in the Destiny Planning Bureau will doze off. , when mistakes are made. A small misstep leads to a chain of mistakes, and a big twist in Matt's life planning. To make up for this small mistake, another series of corrections began.
However, in the process of revising human destiny, it is impossible to revise feelings. Emotions became an uncertain factor in Matt's life planning. Under the guidance and inducement of the Destiny Planning Bureau, he also thought about giving up, completing his life mission step by step, and giving up this relationship. But in the battle between emotion and reason, emotion finally prevailed. The chairman of the Destiny Planning Bureau also modified Matt's life path after some weighing, and officially included this relationship into his destiny planning.
The content of the story is not complicated. The Destiny Planning Bureau is a creature that is higher than human intelligence. They have been guiding the development of human beings and correcting the mistakes and deviations that may occur in human beings. However, whenever they want to let go, human beings have a tendency to self-destruct. As a last resort, the Destiny Planning Bureau can only intervene in the overall development plan of human beings again and again. At this stage, the most important job is to plan the future president of the United States, and let this person lead the life of all mankind.
Perhaps, the Fate Planning Bureau really has something to do, and we live safely under their watchful eyes. But even the development of the big world cannot completely obscure the destiny of an individual. Having the right to choose freely within a limited range may be our pursuit!
