Let's go, dragon seeker

Dressed in the veneer of an alien culture, it is a Disney cartoon that talks about simple truths and changes the soup without changing the medicine. Architecture, costumes, and facial features of characters all come to a great fusion of East Asian culture, which is pleasing to the eye, and there are constant small surprises, but these only superficial things can't make me have more sense of identity. The core of the film, whether it is the facial expressions of the characters, the lines, the world view, or the laughter that has been the same for ten years (but it still makes me laugh), are all so "Americanized" and "Disney-like", whether they are lazy or just here. ? We don't know. There is no need to boast about the excellent production. It is basically a standard production. Like the script of the movie, the too easy victory in Laya's adventure is reluctantly said to be suitable for children under the age of thirteen. Small trouble, forgive those bugs that really help people for the time being, because the elements are rich and the rhythm of the story is still smooth and lively, the score is higher than the passing line, but the last scene is really stomping. The kind of vulgarity that I can't stand, I think I already saw this ending when I was ten years old. The more deadly point is that the setting of the protagonist's opposite characters is incomplete, and the plot line is also forcibly interrupted. If you recall it later, you may think that your memory is incomplete.

It's strange, but not surprising that the warm and happy ending still makes my nose sour. I've always longed for such a world where everyone is connected, trusted and happy. Maybe I can't really feel it, but I was moved a few times in the movie. times are also good.

Ah yes, such an adventure movie with a female protagonist and no important male characters is considered a minority in the vast ocean of movies, but I am glad that it is becoming more and more. Wisdom and courage are not exclusive to male protagonists. Swords and armor can also fit perfectly on women. No matter if you have little love or lofty ideals, let's go, women! There may be swamps, thorns, mountains, and deep valleys ahead. Let us struggle, escape, trek, and jump. Let us discover that all these are just the scenery along the way. Let us sing the most precious freedom and love in the world. Let us go down this misty cliff, there is no end, our journey is far more than the sea of ​​stars.

That's what we set out for.

    IMAX3D version. As long as we trust each other, miracles can be achieved; as long as we treat people with sincerity, we can break down barriers; as long as we are united, we can overcome darkness. Once again, Disney has used magical animation magic, combined with Southeast Asian customs and cultural elements, to create a believable fantasy world and tell a moving fairy tale. The animation level has always been excellent, and the rhythm is freely retractable. When the movie ended, the melodious Southeast Asian-style music lingered in my ears. Sitting in the IMAX hall, I remembered it for a long time, but I still couldn't figure out why such an easy-to-understand and full of routines to upgrade the adventure template story of fighting monsters and breaking through levels, plus The clichéd happy ending brought me to tears. What strikes people's hearts? Perhaps it is the flesh-and-blood supporting roles who are strong on the outside and fragile on the inside, vicious on the outside and kind in the heart, or the strong belief that they would rather sacrifice themselves first, or the courage to let go of the estrangement and go to death together to complete the mission, or the reunion with the deceased relatives. The joy of fairy tales may be those criticized for the false and ugly, and the praised truth, goodness and beauty are rare and precious at the moment. Wiping away my tears, I really want a bowl of Tom Yum Kung soup. Four and a half stars

    As expected of Disney, all points are considered very good. Plus, some of the supporting animals in it are so cute! It's the kind of cuteness that I can't wait to keep one, and the environmental background is so well done! There are also two-dimensional and three-dimensional switching! Every time I switch to two-dimensional, I feel amazing!
