      steam stew

      The title is "Virtual World", which is actually surreal in conventional animation settings, or it can be regarded as "another history". I didn't like the "Another History" episode in "Love Dead": Imagine if Hitler hadn't been born or died long ago there wouldn't be WWII. The reason for the dislike may be that such assumptions are akin to cold jokes or whispers from some people, embarrassing and boring. This film has a more ambitious setting, but it serves a personal heroic story...

      This is not "Miyazaki Hayao", this is just the director's immature brain hole

      A steampunk animation of alternate time, the world view is very attractive. However, the follow-up handling of the main contradiction in the film seems frivolous. The contradiction between man and nature becomes the background board, the contradiction between man and man is a vassal of the previous contradiction, and the contradiction between lizard and lizard finally becomes a family infighting. It passed by in a hurry, without a sustained orgasm. The contradiction between man and lizard...

      The game between environmentalism and extremism

      French cartoons, like their films, often contain profound philosophies in addition to their aspirational romance and unrestrained imagination.

       The same is true for "Avelle and the Fictional World," written by French cartoonist Jacques Tardi, through a poignant dystopian adventure, directed by Christian Danmills. Desmares and Franck Ekinci explored the possibilities of extreme environmentalism for the future state of human existence.

      "Aviel and the Fictional World" boldly...

      Steampunk and Doctor Strange

      When writing a film review, I unknowingly thought of BC's "Doctor Strange". The best of "Doctor Strange" is the imaginative visual world, and the movie is also such a dream container. So is Arville and the Fictional World.

              There was an American TV series called "The Man in the High Castle", which discussed the world after the victory of fascism in World War II, and "Avril and the Fictional World" made a similar assumption, a world where technology has not progressed....

      short comment

      2015?? The movie "Avelle and the Fictional World": The two-dimensional world of steampunk style is a very pleasing animation mode. The story setting has a lot of imagination, but I always feel that I have already experienced it in Hayao Miyazaki. , and the flow of the plot is a bit stereotyped, but it has a very interesting and warm ending. I watched the English dubbed version. Although it was also played by a famous artist, it was not suitable for all kinds of conditions. It proved once...

      It is completely the sense of the camera, the scene setting of the super blockbuster, and the story is not bad. The relationship between the two couples is also very interesting. Although the character design is ugly and clumsy European comic style, but I am used to it. The drudgery of saving humans is still left to the cute kitty...

    Movie plot

    In another France ruled by Napoleon V in the 20th century, scientists have been missing for 70 years. Great inventions such as flying, electricity and even movies have all come to nothing. Only Eiffel built a second iron tower. Coal and steam have made the sky smoky. You must wear a gas mask when you go out. The Grand Palace becomes a large greenhouse. Avil's parents were scientists, and they disappeared for no apparent reason. When...

    Evaluation action

    Compared to the "Little Prince" performed by the Americans, "Avril et le monde truqué" may be more regarded as a representative work of French animation. The setting of the world view is a very important part of the animated film, and the film can easily make people’s eyes shine. There are a lot of science fiction full of steampunk style in the film. For example, the most iconic Eiffel Tower has become two. , The steam tram in the sky...
