Originally, the movie "Promea" was released in domestic theaters last year, and the author had plans to go to see it. However, it happened to be another animation work "Hello World" launched at the same time, and finally chose to watch the latter with friends. These two days, I watched "Promea online" and began to regret not watching this work in the theater, because if the work can be seen in a place with a better audio-visual atmosphere, I believe it can bring a more immersive experience.
"Telling a good story" is the core key to a good work
After watching "Promea", the first most intuitive shock is not the dazzling and gorgeous special effects painting that trigger society is good at, but the admiration of the work can have the ability to "tell a good story"; indeed some of the scripts that criticize this work have the meaning of "new bottles of old wine", the plot is slightly old-fashioned, and there is not enough innovation and breakthrough. Countless groups reading the film can basically guess the subsequent plot development from the beginning.
But "Promea" can tell its own story well and express the emotions and thoughts it wants to convey to the audience. In many places, the rendering of the emotional atmosphere is very good, and when watching, it can make people feel that the tip of the nose is sour and touched. The rhythm of the plot is also not delayed, basically as long as you can patiently read the introduction of the first fifteen basic plots, you can quickly be driven into the ups and downs of the plot, and your eyes can't move the screen.
Under the brilliant and colorful painting and exciting vocal movement, "Promea" seems to play a beautiful and magnificent ode to sorrow and music, and finally draws a perfect end with love and hope that breaks through the sky. The overall look and feel is quite smooth.
Classic character setting, can bump cp
The character setting is the usual pair of two male protagonists with contrasting personalities. The protagonist Gallo is very affectionate, impulsive and courageous, is a complete "muscle stupid", typical of the Japanese hot-blooded protagonist image; while Leo is a graceful and beautiful young man, emerald green long hair, fair skin and slender figure, when watching, the author even once guessed that his real identity is a woman, of course, in the rugged male voice also gave up this idea.
However, although the setting of the two people has some sense of application, in terms of the emotional shaping of the characters, "Promea" spares no effort in this regard, and well conveys the inner contradictions and ideas of the two people, making the character image vivid and vivid. On the one hand, Gallo has always believed in the big brother who saved him from danger, dutifully doing his own fire extinguishing work, although he later suffered betrayal, he still rushed forward after confusion and hesitation; while Leo has always endured the huge anger of the "Burning Clan", from the original calm, adhering to the principle of not killing innocents indiscriminately, to the loss of calm after the abuse of his fellow tribes and the capture of them, the anger continues to burn the entire city.
Both have their own principles and one-sided approaches. However, in the face of unexpected situations, Gallo and Leo present a very different image from usual, and the grumpy Gallo can change his past impulses and maintain calm thinking. Leo began to give up on himself when anger filled his brain, but Gallo still did not give up leo, not only in sympathy for their "Burning Clan" lineage, but also in the friendship after understanding each other.
So why is the author in the title of the article, writing that they can be bumped "cp". The relationship between the two characters is closely linked from beginning to end, influencing each other's direction of action, and a special sense of relationship arises spontaneously. In the end, Gallo offers his kiss to save Leo's life, which sublimates the relationship to another level.
The selfishness of human nature is common sense, but tolerance can open up possibilities
The plot of "Noah's Ark" also appears in "Promea". In works with such apocalyptic themes, this kind of bridge section can often be seen. The admired and intelligent commander vividly displayed the selfishness and arrogance of human nature, believing himself to be the supreme king, controlling the fate of the common people like a man in power.
Pick ten thousand people on board, flee to outer space, and in the absence of any way to solve the destruction of the Earth's core, you can't say that the commander's decision was wrong. After all, no one knows how to solve the problem, even Gallo and Leo are lucky to melt the ice, just happen to learn the truth and mature mech from the doctor, otherwise the world may have already ushered in the end.
The measured way of continuing human reproduction is a cruel way to continue human reproduction, but it leaves a glimmer of life. But life always needs to be hopeful, there are more choices and opportunities beyond common sense, otherwise it is narrow to the limitations of the original setting. "Promea" is still quite well handled in the final details, where it comes from and where it goes, and in the end it is all turned into dust and everything is one. The alien space-time tearing awakens the Burning Clan, which eventually returns to dust after full combustion.
Overall, the author is still very willing to give "Promea" a near-full score, and also recommend readers to watch. Not only because the work is properly made, but also because the story is smooth. Perhaps the slightest flaw is the lack of innovation in the script, and the overly dazzling treatment of some shots will make people feel a little aesthetic fatigue. The individual gave a score of 9.5.
