Honestly it’s not as good as I imagined, but I love it anyway. It is very real when she was trying to grasp any tiny bit of hope to be remembered in this world. This is what ego does to people, fuel us with fear. And death being the ultimate fear. Oh and competition, of course - ego’s favorite toy. I love it because in the end she opened her eyes. It’s not as simple as she chose family over career or vice versa, but simply realizing what she has was enough. Hence she can finally enjoy figure skating for herself, not for her dad or for winning. And that my friends, is really the purpose of life.

What a great enlightening movie. Love Jim Carey. The idea is, you go from saying lies that sound nice, to saying truth that sounds awful, to saying truth that sound nice. Coz when you don’t have judgement against yourself, when you don’t have awful things to say to yourself, you don’t have to lie. All good things come out naturally. Love is a flow from your love of yourself to people around you. Anything else is some kind of control. Love is peaceful and calm.

It’s a great movie. I don’t think a lot of people truly understand it but even so they’d think it’s an ok movie. And the ending - Eddie indeed stopped using TNZ. You don’t have to be on a pill to be able to truly “see” the world. Everyday in our life, we don’t. We are blinded by SO many thoughts and complicated emotions, we become less aware of the here and now. I think the effect of the pill mimics how someone “awakes” in the spiritual world, to realize you’re beyond your thoughts, that you have a deeper self. The 20% brain thing is just for the general public to understand it better. There are some great lines in the movie. “I can’t think myself out of the situation”. You can’t. Especially when panic or anxious. Thoughts cannot help you. You have to drop them completely to have a real grasp of the surroundings and facts, and make the most efficient decision.

This movie perfectly explains why the world is a reflection of your inner world. You will only see its beauty when you have it in your heart, and look for it. My favorite movie ♥️

This movie is about life. About how to learn to love the world, and more importantly love yourself. You go from one extreme to another, try different plots. It is an extreme format of art to make the same day repeat. In reality, is it all that different? You find excitement in different women, realize that doesn’t make you happy. You thought you found the one, but pursued her like an object, almost “got” her but could never even though you seemed to have done everything right. You stumble through life. Learned everything you can. In the end, the answer is to enjoy yourself, love the people around you, help people because you want to not because you can or should, and learn to play piano because you are curious - all the best qualities in humanity! In the end, when you’re truly enjoying where you are at, you “get” her unexpectedly. And everything falls into the right place. Did anything really change? Not at all. Same exact town, people, restaurants, same everything. The only thing that’s change is you. Such a great, powerful movie. It is about believing in the good in people. Warms my heart!
