First of all I didn't see the original, then after watching this movie, I'm sure I won't watch the original even more. There are two reasons:
1. Almost all the plots of this movie are too purposeful, so strong that some naive people secretly rejoice at the fact that they can often guess the plot after the movie; The shadow person feels a sense of humiliation. From the beginning, the Mongolian man bought a radio in the store and was short of 600 yuan. At this time, the leader next to him turned his head and moved his eyes with malicious intent, knowing that everyone knew that the leader would definitely use the 600 yuan to get food to satisfy his hunger; In the end, Dad found a Squib in the trap. As an experienced old man, he still chose to continue to approach the potentially dangerous dead sheep, and then the camera gave a close-up of the Squib. At this time, even the child sitting next to me and being held by my mother was Started screaming. Such overly presupposed plots abound in this film, and it's a pain in the ass. In traditional narrative films, a story needs to have meaning, a time direction from cause to effect, a beginning and an end, but when you can guess the end when you see the beginning, are you willing to pay attention to the time in it? What is the direction of expansion? This is how you use WeChat to start a conversation with others. At the beginning, you ask: Miss, how are you? I understand that everyone knows that you want to sleep with her. This kind of vulgar presupposition is the most unacceptable to me. Unless, of course, you're Disney.
2. After watching the movie, I can't tell whether this is a wolf totem or a dog totem? During the entire viewing process, I could feel that wolves are wolf-like. There are only a handful of places where wolves can become totems on the grassland. First, there are several wolf hunting scenes. These two scenes are very impactful and picturesque. It also reflects the director's seasoned skills. The second is that when the wolf is finally killed, he chooses to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff or filling in rocks, which reflects the pride of the wolf. (Others are welcome to add) Most of the time what I feel or hear is, "Wow this little wolf is so cute" "Wow this wolf is very handsome", I don't know how the original novel describes the wolf, but as a It is its own job to express a spirit in the form of images, but the worship of the wolf in this film only comes from a few dialogues between the protagonist and Abba. Depicting the side evidence of the wolf totem spirit, but using the dialogue in the film as a main narrative means always feels a little pale. Moreover, the film has chosen a solution-oriented narrative in the overall treatment, and promoted the development of the plot through changes in the relationship between the characters. Why is it abnormal at the key node of confirming the theme? (Maybe I have a problem with the subject of the film)
Of course I admit that I can't measure a commercial film with too high standards. This reminds me of when I went to see Transformers with my roommates last year and I said to Dara, "I think about every movie I think about some of the details." Dara replied with great disdain: "This kind of obvious entertainment What else do you think about in the film, it is not a victory of will, the person holding the camera also asks you to analyze the quality of the camera movement, you are very boring. "I was speechless at the time. Now I understand, whether it is a commercial film or a genre film or some literary films, their essence is a film (I don't think that variety films are films), they are just like people from all walks of life you meet in society. Some people are expensive, some people have big wrists, some people are beautiful, and some people think too much. As an amateur movie watcher, instead of strictly distinguishing the difference between films, it is better to take every movie that you spend your own money and time seriously. This is off topic.
