Miracle Boy is based on the novel by R.J. Adapted from Palacio's novel, a family drama film produced by Lionsgate, directed by Stephen Zobowski and co-starring Julia Roberts, Jacob Trebrey, Irving Wilson and others.
Auggie (Jacob Trebrey) is a 10-year-old boy who is no different from any other child except for wearing a giant space helmet. Under the helmet hides Auggie's scarred face due to surgery, which not only perfectly hides Auggie's fragile and inferior heart, but also successfully prevents Auggie's appearance from scaring other children.
He was taught at home by his mother from an early age, and in the fifth grade he finally had the opportunity to attend a regular school. Ogi, who is new to school, is ridiculed and bullied by his classmates for his looks, but with the help of his father (Owen Wilson), mother (Julia Roberts), sister (Izabela Vidović), teachers, and friends, he finally finds self-confidence and changes the perception of others with his actions.

The boy Auggie yearns into space, and he wears an astronaut helmet every moment.

For Auggie, it is harder to face his peers than adults, because they will always throw strange eyes at him, and whenever this happens, he will look down and understand others from his shoes.
On the first day of school, Julian in the class taunted Auggie for not going to school and kept taunting him, which made Auggie feel sad
Mom and Dad were worried about Auggie's negative reactions when he got home on his first day, but Auggie insisted he was going to school
So the next day the whole family sent him to school, and Dad told him not to feel lonely and afraid, because it wasn't true
As expected, Auggie became the focus of everyone," and Auggie thought of what his mother had said to him: "If you don't like where you are now, think about where you want to go."
Via is Auggie's older sister, who told auggie on his first day of school, "You're different, you don't have to pretend to fit in with them."
In Via's eyes, her brother is a little sun, and although Via is very sensible, she still longs for the love of her parents
Via's friend Miranda inexplicably alienated her, and when she was upset, Justin appeared, he asked Via if she would report to the Drama Club, Via was touched by his concern and humor, and agreed to his request to join the Theater Club, but when asked if Via was an only child, Via thought about it and said "Yes"
One day Justin came to Via to ask why she didn't choose the heroine, Via said that her family was busy and would not have time to watch her performance, Justin said that he would cheer her on, inadvertently mentioning it reminded Via of her grandmother, who was very good to her.

Boy Jack offers to come to Auggie for dinner during his lunch break at school, but Auggie doesn't want to eat in front of others, he feels like a prehistoric turtle when he eats, but Jack immediately rudely eats the sandwich, and the tuna stains his face, causing Auggie to laugh
After that, Jack and Auggie become good friends who talk about everything, and Auggie's campus life suddenly takes meaning
Halloween was Auggie's happiest day of the year, because the special outfit allowed him to walk with his head held high, but inadvertently, he overheard a conversation between Julian and Jack, Julian asked him why he wanted to play with Auggie, Jack said "That's what the headmaster asked, if I had looked like that, I would have killed myself a long time ago" Auggie was very sad and immediately ran home to argue for a helmet
At first, Jack's kindness to Auggie was indeed due to the advice of the headmaster and his mother, but after getting along, he thought augie was a very interesting person, and if he had to choose someone to be his playmate, he would not hesitate to choose Auggie, but out of a kind of protection for himself, Jack lied in front of Julian
The school held a science competition, Jack took the initiative to team up with Auggie despite Julian's obstruction, Julian said "Do you really want to be in the group with that ugly bastard" Jack immediately turned back and gave Julian a punch, and the two wrestled together
Afterwards, Jack wrote an apology letter to the principal, and the principal also warmly replied to Jack

In fact, Miranda also misses Via, she and Via have been good friends since kindergarten, and even spent several years of Christmas at Via's house.

At the graduation ceremony, the principal awarded this year's Medal of Honor to Auggie because he used his strength to awaken the people around him, and Auggie recognized his extraordinary and bravely stood on the podium
Like the last words of the teacher:
"Be kind, because everyone struggles in suffering, and if you really want to get to know someone, all you have to do is look with your heart"
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03" > learn to accept your imperfect self, you are a "miracle"</h1>
The film not only tells the story of a boy, but also conveys to the audience the self-experience of teenagers experiencing confusion, loneliness and fear. While preaching kindness, it is also extremely ironic.
Although the whole film takes Auggie's story as the main line, it actually tells not only Auggie, but also the story of several protagonists related to him, using their stories to explain the process of how people gradually find themselves and kindness in ordinary lives
We may have heard such a voice in real life:
"Your eyes are so small"
"Your nose is really broken"
"You're so fat."
"Your voice is good lady"
"Your legs are so thick."
"You're only 20 years old, why do you look like 30 years old?"
As human beings, we always hear people around us make unkind evaluations and comparisons of other people's physical defects, or places that they see as imperfect, and even maliciously insult.
Whatever the situation, we are always hurt by these remarks, and instead change from physical defects to psychological harm.
Just like augie, the protagonist of the movie "Miracle Boy", many times we want to wear a helmet or try to cover up the physical defects, so that we can reduce contact with the outside world and avoid the eyes of others.
In the complex world, when we have certain flaws in ourselves, we are destined to receive more eyes and discussions than others, and the only way to make ourselves strong is to work hard and accept ourselves completely, and loudly declare to the world, "I love myself like this, because I am unique."
When watching this movie, xiaobian thought of his favorite singer Zhou Shen, who was misunderstood and criticized by people because of his voice, but fortunately, he proved himself powerfully with his own singing voice.
Judging people by appearance and subjective judgment are personal prejudices, and the best way to lift prejudices is to look at the problem from a different perspective, spend time and energy to seriously feel the other party's heart, so as to discover the advantages of the other party.
As Auggie said in his final speech: To truly understand a person, you must look at the other person carefully and comprehensively.
"Please grow savagely in the most splendid way you think, with flowers along the way"
