Movie reviews

From the perspective of painting style, the film has unconsciously gone through several rounds of iterations relative to the original character setting of the animated series, and the trend is more and more "age reduction" and more and more "cute". The feature film attributes of "Bear Haunting: Return to Earth" are more obvious. The film responds to the most deeply rooted "stem" of the original IP in the design of the bridge section, and can play the machine and add fresh jokes, the screenwriter is not perfunctory, and the creative attitude is correct. If you take making your child happy as a starting point, the film can be watched and worth watching. For parent audiences, "Bear Haunting: Return to Earth" has more blockbuster "style" [22]. The special effects technology of the film is very eye-catching. The scenes are imaginative and well-made. [21] (The Paper, Guangming Network Review)

The movie does a pretty good job, from the worldview level, especially when it enters the black hole, because the time flow is very slow, back to the earth, found that the earth has restarted, there is a circular worldview level of the setting, so the film in the worldview architecture level of the score is very high, from the production level, you can see such a cosmic beauty, including The bear two went to the moon, saw the whole beauty of the moon and saw the beautiful earth from the moon. To be able to see such a cosmic wonder from an animated movie is actually quite touching at that moment. As such an animated film that is biased towards children, it gave the audience a particularly big surprise in the Spring Festival of 2022 and played the core content of "hard science fiction".

The film boldly integrates science fiction into the story, which can stimulate children's curiosity and imagination, and also increase the time of parent-child interaction. It is rare for domestic animation movies to use science fiction to express the theme, and "Bear Haunting • Return to Earth" boldly adds the sci-fi worldview and hard-core settings to the story, and when expressing, it does not put children in the perspective of ignorance of science. And the film is narrated with a family story, which parents and children can accept. While stimulating children's curiosity about science and imagination for the future, it also creates a lot of parent-child interaction time, parents can also share with their children some of their own fantastic ideas about science, the future, and space in addition to feeling the charm of the story. The film allows children to acquire scientific knowledge at the same time, but also cultivates children's environmental protection concepts [23]. Although "Bear Haunting: Return to Earth" is ostensibly an animated film, the sci-fi elements integrated into it have made many viewers feel refreshed. [32] (Today's Film Review Mtalk, China Youth Network Review)

"Bear Haunting • Return to Earth" to the science fiction theme "hands", in addition to the funny family fun, but also the integration of aliens, high-tech and other elements, the thick bear two became the first bear to step on the moon, low-juvenile cartoons have a sense of live science fiction, "Bear Haunting • Return to Earth" captured the hearts of all ages. The production upgrade of the film is very out of the circle. In "Bear Haunting", you can see the shocking big scenes such as the attack of the Arsenal bird and the deformation of the mech, and the film is also full of imagination for the design of Abu's spaceship and the plot of returning to Antarctica, borrowing from many settings that only appear in live-action movies. In the end, Mrs. Niu enters the scene of the duel between Tianhuo and Xiong Ii, and even has the visual sense of the live-action movie "Pacific Rim". Although the traces of electronic music imitating Hollywood commercial animation in visual effects are very strong, from story creativity to technical upgrading, such "bear haunting" has achieved the progress of domestic young animation in terms of content, and also shows the results of technological upgrading of domestic animation in recent years.
