At first I thought it was a science fiction children's movie, but it turned out to be. To be honest, I didn't feel much attracted to me during the first twenty minutes of watching it. But as the plot deepened, especially when the person who had crossed the border illegally finally ran back, when a part of the beetle's body fell out, it felt a little bit so interesting.
The man-eating mole that finally appeared, and the face of the magic box was revealed by LINA and DOON bit by bit, which aroused my interest.
The two people did not give up their beliefs, did not worry about looking for bright hope, and under all the rumors, speculations and obstacles of others, they still took firm steps to find a way to leave.
In this "regressive" city, their minds did not regress. In this dark city, the thoughts of the two of them are the endless "lights".
In the end, as the audience expected, they succeeded. Finally returned to the earth and saw the brilliant sunshine.
How to say it, because I haven't read a novel, I don't know much about the background of this movie. But as far as the movie is concerned, it is ultimately not a drowsy movie, nor is it a movie that is left behind after seeing it. Based on these two points, it can at least give four stars. After all, the plot and process of the movie made me more and more involved.
No matter how naive and simple the design of the level of levels that finally leaves is, it is only a science fiction children's movie after all. But the spirit that the movie wants to convey, or the energy that we can feel after watching it, is endless. There are deep-seated things to dig, and there are more problems worthy of our deep consideration, which is very OK! Maybe that's the intention of the director. Abandon the gorgeous gimmick, what really excavated is the spiritual core of the original book.
Therefore, after reading it, I can't help but feel a little lack of vision, but it seems to be a little shocked mentally.
As for the shock, I believe everyone's shock is different, I won't say much here.
Finally, I murmured another sentence: These four stars are still worthwhile.
