This movie indeed catch the crazyness of modern day big corp. Culture.
..... Just like the song song they sung at the show. Higher up snap a finger , and the management try to guess what the big guys meaning while not daring to ask ,Just level after level , rank after rank , push it all the way down to the bottom.
Everybody who has a pair of eyes can see how Johnny/Jianlin Hu is not even close to be qualify to be promoted. But they all just close they eyes for it thinking it's just part of the "bigger plan" played by the CEO. (Or even rumored that he is CEO's son or anything......even though he clearly not that much younger than "the man")
But , in as what I said in the tittle , in the end ,it's still poison apple covered in caramel. Nothing really changed.
Magic got the long deserved promotion.......but so just , he is still just another "little nut" in this crazy system.
Hu saved the factory (and all his follower workers) , but it still got automation remodeled. And with all those computerized CNC machines , he and his friends' craftsmanship skill are still in danger.
Penny is left the company.......which she probably would regret later.
(In the end , it still the case of "pick the right side" and "the boss's word is the law".....the system are there , strong and solid.)
The story ended at a happy ending tone. But for all of us the IRL Maigc/Hu/Penny , who step out the theater , the story is still far far away from the end.......
