Comment on "Your Name"-an embarrassing masterpiece of making money

Countless people are eagerly looking forward to it, claiming that this is a "comprehensive work", but under the prestige, is there a vain name?


Some people say that Xin Haicheng used too much force this time and went too far on the soundtrack and light fire. Others said that Xin Haicheng gave up hardcore animation audiences and set his sights on the broader mass market. I pre-purchased the movie ticket two weeks ago and wanted to find out. However, after the premiere day was over, I came back with great excitement. If the perfect score is 10, I can only give 7 points. If I only use one sentence to comment, I will say-

this is a highly commercialized film with gorgeous feather clothes, which is mainly aimed at young students, especially high school students. , An embarrassing masterpiece of money circling.

I have to say that from the point of view of the movie experience alone, it is indeed worth the money: painting style, color matching, splitting, music, no fault, "every frame can be a wallpaper" is not a false statement, the production can be described as standard. Above, however, when it comes to real internal skills such as narrative techniques and plot contradictions, I am not complimented below.

1. When love has become an unprepared separation between heaven and man, no matter how passionate words are, they are so empty and helpless

. 30 minutes before the movie, the brisk rhythm and jumping shots showed the audience the joy of exchanging bodies. The differences in life of local high school students and the characters with different personalities seem to be pretty good at first glance, but the most important thing is missing-emotional paving!

When the wrong date ends early and the sudden love is thrown out halfway, I can't help asking, is this coming too soon?

The audience's confusion reflects the lack of narrative and the cutting corners of the plot. Touching the chest, blushing, drinking coffee, part-time job, shrine, family, shameless yellow hair, charming big sister-all the hot elements that can be used can be said to be gathered together, but how much do these "elements" promote the plot? ?

It is no exaggeration to say that if someone enters the venue after 30 minutes, his experience of the subsequent plot will never be worse than that of the audience from the beginning. Why? Probably because the first 30 minutes are simply meaningless "commercial results".

I always have a bad guess--

Screenwriter: Xiao Zhang, go see what the current students like?
Xiao Zhang: Report! They like family involvement in politics, they like to drink coffee, and they like a little bit of color, which makes them feel cool!
Screenwriter: That's it! Cram it all in the first 30 minutes!

Well, yes, it's really cool, but what about the story?

2. When the climax becomes a deliberately made blockbuster, no matter how many encounters, it is so pale and dry.

Remember the following sentence from Lai Shi: We are accomplices. Let's make big news! ...... The sonorous BGM, exciting computer machinery, and dazzling firelight, it is like a big show to save the world! But when the farce ended, all the climaxes turned into a pool of muddy water, until finally the hero and the heroine passed by, crying out a few words with tears, helplessly full of passion but unable to scream the real heart-struck touch.

Do you remember the pain of trying to sneeze but not being able to get it out? That's right, that's how it feels.

From the screenwriter’s point of view, if a story takes love as the theme, it should naturally lead to the final climax with corresponding clues and contradictions, but this drama is surprising-an exaggerated rescue drama, a three-year reunion without explanation , And the grown-ups 8 years after the end of the film. Things are different. Several important "tear spots" are wrapped in a heavy craftsmanship, like a few skilled workers using advanced assembly lines to process them. And the product is a fast-food-like moving and deliberate climax. As an audience member, I only feel like being forced to cry by pressing my head. Only the word embarrassment can be described,

yes, some plots are indeed a bit sore, but when the enthusiasm fades, there is less aftertaste.

Finally, objectively speaking, although the story of exchanging bodies is clichéd, it is supplemented by fresh bridges such as Meteor Extinguishes the Village, Miyamizu Shrine, and the daily life of modern students. This old wine can completely brew romantic youth poetry in a new bottle. However, the chaotic narrative and awkward plot contradictions have completely ruined all youth, and this poem has become as rigid and rigid as an eight-part essay.

    The animation belonging to Makoto Shinkai, as always, has gorgeous colors and strengthens the plot. It is more fascinating than before. The sense of picture is matched with the full plot.
