Featured review
It's a story about families and relationships, sounds cliche yet it delivered a deep and enjoyable entertainment. When a family wound or trauma is overcome there's nothing more that can give happiness in life. Understanding and forgiveness is hard but brings long term rewards. Even if the story could feel sappy at times since there were those reactions that lead to happy ending, it still proves that a harmonic family living is something people desire deep down if we are honest with ourselves. This simple yet deep movie reminded me that a life (or God) gives you set of cards and it is up to you how you play with them. A warning: The right choices may lead to happiness. It is scary but this is exactly what Bible teaches us. How to give love and receive love. A mastery of those, may lead to a meaningful life. The stage can be the world or just your own family over generations.
