For 27-year-old Ben (Josh Lawson), life couldn’t be better. A well paid job, friends, parties, girls and nothing to tie him down. But when he is invited back to his old school to join several other ex-students including Alex (Rachael Taylor) and Jim (Ed Kavalee) in talking about their personal achievements, something goes wrong. Ben is the only speaker not to be asked a question by the school kids. This triggers a year of soulsearching and looking for answers in all the wrong places.
From his best friend Andy (Christian Clark) whose solution is that they both take another holiday, to his mentor Sam (Lachy Hulme) who loans him a sports car in the belief that there’s nothing like excessive speed to resolve emotional turmoil. Not even Ben’s father (Rob Carlton) or friends Nick (Daniel Henshall) and Em (Felicity Ward) can offer much in the way of meaningful guidance.
Of course, it’s not easy seeking enlightenment in nightclubs, or on the ski fields of New Zealand, and when you start dating a Russian tennis star things can get really complicated. As the poster boy for a generation desperate to tick every box, Ben begins to suspect that the meaning of life may well reside in the things he's already doing - and a girl he used to know.
艾玛汤普森把我约炮时的内心活动全演出来了。😢
有想法，完成度也不错，但总体给我感觉像是在加拿大的广东人拍出的ABC成长故事。
不就是女性身体和心理的成长，居然弄得这么神经兮兮的，简直对不起卡夫卡。至于反传统的那一面，背离前几代的统去继承更老的统，这是文艺复兴么？
也太好看了吧！grandma aunts一起变身的时候一个爆哭！呜呜呜呜
第三幕极大缓解了“形态”过度复古的第一幕带来的cringe
清新脱俗又平易近人的动画电影，关于我们心中的野兽，关于文化和禁忌，关于身份认同，都在我们和父母那深深长长的爱里了。
看到母女冲突与和解鼻子一酸，一直在经历这样复杂的感情中长大。想要逃离保护但又为了伤害母亲感情而难过，但我们都不需要跟对方说对不起，有女儿我也会这样吧
太太太太可爱了！皮克斯永远不会让人失望！情感的递进也毫不生硬。
我发现这电影对于套路台词的理解和展示最为贴切，我终于明白那些台词到底是啥意思
Only one panda is cute?
电影故事一般，但，还是那句话，小熊猫超萌的……
正好来姨妈看233好可爱啊杀伤力爆炸，少女时代妈妈好美，外婆熊萌爆了哈哈，美阿姨特熊队厉害了。数体教梗666
13岁女孩暴怒会变成红毛熊猫， 母亲要求克制收敛，用仪式把怪物收走，小女孩坚持做自己，拒绝历代传统对女孩的规训。母女之间的怪物大战，认真讨论的话就是所谓女德与女性觉醒的战斗，肤浅追星看演唱会和成绩卓越乖巧孝顺并不是互斥的，那怪物和小女孩的真自我共存也是。
从头到尾疯狂输出价值观哪，满满当当，看的好累。这才是个小学生哎。猫熊的形象设计很可爱，但自始至终被强大的说教掩盖，完全无法拿出精力去好好体会这个萌萌的大东西。
主题是成长；一种东方人（华人）特有的教育观念，对孩子有强烈控制欲。孩子也在孝子的传统观念下不做反抗，一直做着乖孩子，隐藏着心里的红熊猫；还有多元移民国家（北美）的包容，中西文化混合；四城男孩是西城男孩，也是来自四个不同国家的粉丝女孩；华人的脸型建模很贴近现实；女性主导，父亲一旁
挺不错的合家欢电影~牙套这个东西在美国这么普及啊，涉及到青少年的影视剧几乎都会看到戴的。
full of f*cking stereotypes
关于接纳自己的青春题材动画，故事其实很传统，华人导演也终于将中国元素与全世界都能读懂的主题和情感融合在一起，这才是自然而然的文化输出，不单单是为了迎合某个族裔的口味或者盯着他们口袋里的钞票。
对于东亚女性来说很难相信最后的结局……too cruel to fall for it……
因为建国后不许成精，所以小熊猫全家移民加拿大的故事
