Key point: My girlfriend and I both guessed the ending. I guessed that the last wish was to resurrect the girl's father, and she guessed the door god's request (I thought about it too, but I don't think it would be so hasty? ♂️ ).
This film is mainly about friendship and family. There are two problems in the film. Some places are not rigorous. Let’s talk about friendship first, the male protagonist’s wish when he was a child was that the little boy and the little girl would be friends forever, but this movie somehow confuses friendship and love (the emotions are not clear)
The second question is that Shenlong has already understood the true meaning of life, but the last wish of the male protagonist has not been fulfilled. What is the significance of the door god's last request, but Shenlong has to satisfy the wishes of ten people? (Probably considered for a sequel) But it ruins the structure of the story. The rules for the use of teapots are not strict. The rule is that Shenlong fulfills three wishes for each of the owners of ten teapots. Later, it becomes the owner of the teapot who will become the owner of the teapot. The last three have not been fulfilled. If the teapot is stolen from the person who wishes, does that count as the completion of the service to one's master? The second person becomes the master and the number of wishes resets to zero and starts to count again, so why did the boy (the previous master) regain the teapot and become the master of the teapot again, and the remaining number of wishes from the last wish became one wish? This is a paradox.
Then there is a common problem with domestic animations now. They always like to use those lines that are not funny to achieve laughs. There are many redundant lines in the film, (for example, the female protagonist goes to the male protagonist's neighborhood to complain about the female protagonist's nose. Collapse) In fact, there is absolutely no need to create laughs like this, and I personally don’t think it’s funny. In fact, it is better to express with actions, body language, facial expressions than those lines that are not funny or even impolite (refer to cat and mouse). Uncle Long is perfect as the animation director.
As an animation practitioner, I sincerely hope that the country can make very rigorous and serious masterpieces. (Although I'm a bit introverted but I have a solar passion for animation) Come on.
