- No spoiler.
I am a big fan of Disney. Technically, I'm a Pixar buff, but that's what I am after all. All the postings I've posted so far don't have to say so. But after watching this movie, I changed my mind very slightly.
This movie is full of social accusations. When dealing with social issues, some movies may be provocative and cause viewers to be upset or even extremely sad. There are some Korean movies like [Silenced], and movies depicting bad characters as "evil" in a flat manner. However, there is no villain in the movie. The existence of suppressing the main characters can be felt dimly, it is money (capital in a nice way). The word "Florida Project" refers to a government aid program that gives grants to homelands at the same time that Disneyland was called when it was built in Florida. This paradox is well placed on the subject.
The film continues to have ironic scenes, with the main characters living in a colorfully painted motel located in the back alley of Disneyland called Magic Castle. It contrasts with their miserable lives. Children who play the main characters are naive. Contrary to the children, adults live in a desperate reality. As the movie drew it calmly, the sadness of the movie reveals the hearts of the audience.
This is a well-made film. The children also acted well, and the Willem Dafoe was so good. It was also interesting that real motel residents appeared as extras when filming the movie. It was good at directing, music and editing.
The ending is shocking. I'm holding on to a lot of things to avoid the spoiler, but it gives me more goose bumps than the ending at [Lala Land]. It's a little bit mournful, but I hope many people will watch it. I finish my review by introducing a line of reviews by Lee Dong-jin, a film critic who touched my heart.
