I am saying the truth when I say that this movie is more like how I felt in my childhood.
I didn't imagine giants in front of me but I definitely fought the frightful things in my mind.
Want to know whom I call giants - ? I call sadness and demise of a human as giants. So what I thought really is that if I fight them till the end of my life, they won't hurt my people (this thought is of a 8 year old kid back then). And unlike this girl (the lead character), my fight involved only me. (My parents didn't even know anything- I balanced it way better in concealing the fact that I had to behave like I was in a battlefield, every second of my life back then).
It is so astonishing to see it in a movie.
I think I still wouldn't think twice before fighting the giants again. I think I was paranoid back then ( but who's to say,..a kid won't know the difference between reality and what's inside the head. A kid will treat everything with seriousness).
Still (after 20 years) I struggle to believe that back then, my fight with the giants ( ill omens) weren't real. In other words, I would say that the people of this world won't believe that the fights are real enough.
F.Y.i. My story is different than what the movie described
