Ground Control to Major Tom

Rating: 8/10 (9 February 2016)

It has been two years since the last time I watched this movie: the secret life of Walter Mitty. Recently, something and someone broke into my brain where is already very messy, spinning and dancing in it like a bee, but reminded me of this movie. This time is so different from the first, trying to find out what is happening there.
Immediately after I finished this movie, I zoned out as Walter Mitty does! It felt like that I jump and climb onto one helicopter which is about to taking off and I look back towards the ground while holding my breath and can't believe it happened. It seems that my adventure is on! Till now I realize there is a force that made me be reminded of this movie and it turns out to be my desire for an unexpected journey and a test of my limits and a real change! In other words, "To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life." Isn't it?
Every time when I stand before a steep mountain, ever time when I face the unknown, every time when I have to go and fight alone, every time when I fall, and every time when the helicopter is about to taking off! Every time when I feel my fears, Ling would appear in my brain and then I am fearless! I am also a daydreamer, I admit it, and I am indeed afraid of something and I can feel my weakness, but when I think about her, I will be fearless and never retreat! She gives me the courage and faith, no matter.So what?? LUF&LUN@WL. "This is ground control to Major Tom! You've really made the grade!" That desire comes exactly from her. Cheryl is the one who gives courage and strength to Walter. Cheryl is the reason why Walter zones out and she will be the one who can stop Walter from zoning out and make Walter feel truly lovely alive. Maybe this story is just a story, but it works on me
The interesting thing and meaningful is the lost film 25 is the photo of focused Walter Mitty himself. You may be a silent and average man in the ocean of crowds, like everyone, or even mediocre in the eyes of someone, but do not look down upon yourself. Actually, you have made the grade!
I know this review is very subjective, dominated by my own very personal emotion, but this movie does encourage me to proceed and keep on adventurously, bravely and creatively.
