Wonder(2017)
Welcome back, I know you miss my mind-blowing and super awesome recommendations, so here is another one.
Actors which I know and I am assuming you know too
So, buckle up — this movie falls under Best Cast Ever. Remember that kid from The Room? Yeah, the one who was basically born in a closet? Well, he’s our main star here too! Only this time, he’s got Julia Roberts as his mom and Owen Wilson as his on-screen dad. But wait for twist #1… their looks.Hold onto your popcorn, because things are about to get interesting!
Plot
Alright, gather around, because your girl here is not spilling the tea all at once. Let’s talk about what’s really going on in this cinematic gem.
Meet our wonder kid, Auggie. He’s got a rare condition and a face that’s as unique as it gets. After some serious homeschooling from Julia Roberts, supermom, she decides it’s time for Auggie to step into the great wild… also known as middle school. And that’s where things really take off — Auggie, armed with his quirky charm, heads into the jungle of tween hormones and lunchroom politics. Naturally, he gets bullied, because… middle school. But does Auggie let that get to him? Nope. Our boy handles it with pure class, serving dignity on a silver platter.
But hold up, there’s a subplot! Enter Auggie’s sister. She’s understanding, supportive, and, well, kinda feeling like wallpaper with all the attention on Auggie. Yet, she’s low-key the most empathetic person ever.
This movie is like a warm hug, a must-watch that’ll leave you feeling all wholesome, cozy, and uplifted.
My wisdom regarding this movie
When I started this movie, I took one look at Auggie’s unique face, saw he was headed to school, and thought, oh no, this poor kid is in for it. I was all set for a classic “bullying survival story.” But surprise! Turns out I was way off. This was one of the most grown-up, heartfelt movies about true character.
Yes, Auggie does get picked on (school remains undefeated), but there are also some real MVPs in this story who totally have his back, and they deserve a major shoutout. His parents? Let’s just say, Best Parenting Award, hands down. This is gentle parenting at its finest, and I was honestly proud of these fictional characters for how they raised their kids!
All I’ll say is, this is now officially my go-to cozy night movie, with a mug of hot coffee and my heaviest blanket. Fine, fine… I’m watching it again. BRB!
Conclusion
Just watch it~
Thank you for reading!
