Intertwined coincidence X simple family affection

After paying attention to the talented director Jin Min, I specially looked for his works, starting with "Red Pepper". (in random order)

This time I saw the word "Godfather" of the Tokyo Godfather and thought it was the "Godfather" of the man's Bible "The Godfather Trilogy"... Later, I found out that the Godfather is the Godfather in "Friends" who is striving to be the godfather of the child... …

Great viewing experience! The plot is tight and the characters clear.

I think the whole work is very dramatic, with a few naughty additions of Ode to Joy, adding a few absurdities. Of course, I think the addition is more interesting. I think the theme is tied to family affection. The technique uses coincidences to advance the plot while constantly recovering the foreshadowing. Through the family affection without blood relationship, it indirectly shows and promotes the family affection with blood relationship, which is touching and full of warmth. and human touch. As for the presentation of "coincidence" in the technique, there are several "god unfolding" that let me reveal the unexpectedness of the characters in the work "stunning the jaw", and there are several places where the previous foreshadowing is recovered through coincidence, which makes people feel good Experience a handful of "reasonable and unexpected", and at the same time completed the character description and side story shaping of the three godfathers (except for the kind-hearted shemales who feel a little miserable), very natural and smooth.

Whether it is the naughty and interesting portrayal method of "fighting blood strips", or the ingenious methods with Christmas miracles such as "baby crying on the road to guide the search for Qingzi" and "the wind that saves people at the end" I think it's great. (Several of them startled me, including the feint shot of the dying old man)

In short, fate, wonderful, perhaps, this is life.

Too professional film critics have to refer to professional commentaries, mark them in the next mark, and use them for future sharing and reviewing!

    There are actually many ways to shoot this story, but the director chose a serious and lively way to present it, and the best tragicomedy is no more than that. The camera is always aimed at special groups, the homeless, uncle shemales, underworld, immigrants, etc., as well as the abandoned babies throughout, which makes people feel warm after watching, and all kinds of coincidences are put into such a work. feel comfortable and reasonable. May I watch it again on New Year's Eve with the person I love.

    The only downside is that the ending is too perfect. I had to cry several times, and the next stage I immediately moved to would be very funny, and then I laughed along, wanted to cry, laughed and forgot to cry, then took a gulp of wine and continued to laugh.

Tokyo Godfathers quotes

  • Hana: You really are the lowest of the low! The best thing you'll ever do is die in the gutter! Oh, poor you! You'll be dead and no one'll care! All you ever do is cause people trouble - dead or alive, you're living trash! The king of trash!

    Gin: Okay, so I'm trash, but you're ugly!

  • Gin: I want to get rid of some trash.

    [the policeman holds out a wastebasket]

    Gin: I don't think I'd fit.
