Saw a "God" movie today

"God"

"Welcome to Marvin"

The film just released its second week in North America

Plot introduction: Based on the 2010 documentary of the same name, Mark fell into a coma for nine days after being beaten by five youths and woke up with no memory. As a special treatment, Mark started creating a WWII-era Belgian town out of 1:6 model dolls in his backyard.

He used dolls to represent himself, his friends and those who beat him. This tinkered with Mark's mind to a certain extent, while also allowing him to create a fantastical world.

Just watch the trailer and the plot introduction

no warning at all

choose to watch this movie

It's because the director is so good

His previous works include:

So I went to the cinema

As a result, reality slapped the face

116 minutes of film

Seeing a headache, sleepy, low-grade fever

I want to ask the director: what happened to you?

Trailer and story of the movie

No problem at first glance

Warm, Healing, Brainstorming, Caring for Vulnerable Groups

But stretched to a film of almost 120 minutes

Here comes the problem

How did the AB story of the movie work?

(Spoilers below)

The main task of the story is the protagonist Mark

pluck up the courage to face the criminal who beats you

Testifying in court and attending exhibitions of own work

The character's inner challenge is

Strive to clear your inner fear

Overcome the Temptation of the Little Blue Pill

Come back to reality and cherish those around you

Result character's inner turning point

it happened

After failing to propose to his goddess

Because of a huge setback - a failed marriage proposal

Mark came home and had a dream at night

I figured it out myself

The demon is gone

The next day, seconds become normal!

Not only did he read the testimony of "As long as I live better than you" in court

Also included in the exhibition of works, the female two who were very disgusted before

And bravely be yourself and put on your beloved high heels

Director, are you playing with me?

You are encouraging the majority of otaku

It doesn't matter if you fail to confess, could it have miraculous effects?

The male protagonist has no barriers to confession

I just want to catch up with the goddess who looks good in high heels

It’s okay to be rejected by the goddess, the second girl can also try it

This value and behavioral logic is also drunk

Honestly, the animation in this movie is amazing

Motion capture of characters is very precise and delicate

Let the audience see that the puppet also has acting skills

Shots and scenes are a bit old-fashioned though

But the filming and editing are top notch

If you think about it, the problem is still in the plot.

Mark's story touches on too many social issues

discrimination, violence, neo-Nazis;

Self-healing, high-heeled shoes lovers;

Nudity and objectification of women, etc.

The male protagonist is a bit like Forrest Gump except for being silly

Really a complicated person

Retired from the Navy, fantasizing about participating in World War II and fighting the Nazis

There are hundreds of pairs of high heels at home

After wearing it, I feel like I have found myself

take the women of the town

All made into Barbie dolls in their own backyard

Play with them every day

You save me, I save you story

To be honest, thinking about it is really a bit terrifying, and this prototype story has a lot to do with ordinary people.

Too irrelevant

reinventing the character

no convincing

Heal yourself by dreaming

Looks like a psychiatrist or something should be out of a job long ago.

It's all done by the seller.

It's good for the patient to play at home

I would like to believe that what the director wants to convey to the audience is actually more

But unfortunately, as foreign media commented

If a story itself is hard to tell

then maybe it shouldn't be made into a movie

After watching this movie I just want to say

The town where the protagonist lives

The toy store is so awesome, they sell everything!

It's a figurine lover's paradise!

Trouble in life?

Doing handicraft is good for physical and mental health,

I wish you all the best of craftsmanship,

It's hard to avoid bad movies, happy every day!

    Anyway, the idea of ​​the toy figurine is very creative, bringing to life an otherwise boring deed, and weaving a post-war traumatic episode into a love reunion. It is also a wonderful state of life to live forever in the world that you have experienced or imagined. There is a chance to watch the prototype documentary "Malvinko". 6.9

    An adult "Forrest Gump" with sexual needs is not beautiful, but wrapping it in a fairy tale coat will only make it worse. The most deadly thing about this film is that the central character's grasp is not handled well. For the male protagonist Mark, the story of the doll is an escapist Garden of Eden or a product of sexual obscenity. The behavior of those dolls made in the image of people around them in reality looked very simple. The doll line and the growth of the male protagonist did not complement each other, and the characters of the female dolls were basically functionalized by Facebook. The physical and psychological damage caused by the attack to the male protagonist is superficial, and drug dependence also comes for a reason and can go away without reason. This series of problems has caused the baby line to have good special effects, but it will only become more twisted.

Welcome to Marwen quotes

    Mark Hogancamp: [Mark stumbles and falls] It hurts like hell!

    GI Julie: Relax, Mark, you got to embrace that pain. You've got love the pain. The pain is a rocket fuel.

  • GI Julie: I know, but you have to love the pain, Hogie. Like the wise man said, "Our pain is our rocket fuel." It reminds us of our strength.
