I am also willing to believe in this fairy tale world

I was entangled beforehand, whether to go to the theater to watch Lao Leisi or watch the glacier. After reading the film reviews, it is said that Lacey was a little educational, and everyone said it was seen by children. So decided to watch this film at home.
A very general animation route. Animals are responsible for selling cuteness. The characters' expressions are a little bit smiley. Somehow everyone starts to sing and dance together, and the bad guys are instantly defeated at a certain point. Very old-fashioned, but I really like it after reading it.
A seemingly beautiful town that you can experience all the time of the year, but you even need to buy air. People don't know the beauty of greenery but can't imagine the beauty of soil and insects. The story of Wanshile's memories in three paragraphs is the theme of the film, but I don’t know why it took 3 days to finish it. Is it just to highlight the part of the little boy and the little ruler who fight in wits~ At first I thought that he would not be able to get out in the next two days, but it turned out to be just so small. . . . Maybe this level of ferocity is also one of the reasons for positioning the film's age group in children.
I have to say that the world in the memory part of the film is too beautiful. Although I know that trees do not grow like this, and animals are not always cute, but I am also fascinated by such a harmonious nature. I can't help thinking that if Wanshile can be content with such a world, instead of persistently pursuing his dream of being affirmed by his family. , That kind of life is not bad, at least urbanites seem to look forward to it very much. A few cubs are so cute, even creatures like fish that don't have hair to sell cute. From the scene of the waterfall, it seems that Wanshile’s nature is still very kind, but he suddenly changed in the back, but it was only time for a song to get rich... Then all the rainbow trees (I like to call it like that--) are gone, and the animals move Gone, the fairy tale world suddenly became a thriller.
In fact, there is nothing to watch behind, because the color pictures and the cute shots are actually gone. What is left is the little boy with his superhuman motorcycle technology and the old grandmother’s skills to turn the tide and steal the spotlight, plus the workers’ unhappy moments when they are yelled at, it’s another song. KO the little dwarf directly. The colorful town has another real color.
But in the end when everyone sang together, I was helplessly moved. Every time I watch this kind of film, knowing that the plot is terrible, everyone will work together to sing together inexplicably, and then I am inexplicably moved. Maybe it's because the real society has too few feelings of one mind.
I once told my friends after listening to some shocking news that the world I hope can have bad people, but no vicious people. Just like the world of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, the negative role is always needed to highlight the protagonist. , But those negative characters are not disgusting. The story of Old Leis gave me this feeling. The family of Masters and the little one played different negative roles, but they were even knocked out without any effort. It seemed that they were the ones who let people realize what it is. What beauty should be cherished.
I also hope that in the world in which I live, bad people will be moved, and because it is not bad enough, it is so easy to be overthrown. If there is a colorful forest and a group of cute animals, I hope they will never be discovered by the world.

    To my credit, the music in this film is mostly good, and I get a little bit excited every time I sing, but a little boring at other times. This story about environmental protection is a little mediocre. The biggest regret is that there are too few interesting places. Only the bear is quite cute. Old lace is also not cute, why not young lace. two and a half stars

    A lot of the details are good, but these little smarts are not enough, and the whole thing always doesn't feel right.

The Lorax quotes

  • Once-ler: [after being pulled from the river and revived by the Lorax] Now, I have a big day tomorrow, so I am going to get some sleep.

    [walks off, but comes back and walks in the opposite direction]

    Once-ler: Once I find my bed.

  • Audrey: [Referring to her mural] Those are trees. Real ones. They used to grow all around here. And people said that the touch of their tufts was softer than anything, even silk. And they smelled like butterfly milk.
