I dislike having my emotions manipulated in a formulaic and predictable way.

For example; boy gets on train, falls asleep, train travels to another city, of course, it had to happen that way. So the adventure in weepiness begins. Could not wait for the credits to roll. Naturally boy, now man, finds birth family and is embraced by all. True story it may be, but spare me the sentimentality and melodrama.
