A road, the left is the reality, the right is the ideal. We are used to running on the left side of the road and looking for direction on the right side of the road. However, whether it is to make a home on the left or to venture in the direction indicated on the right, the person is ultimately the person in the story. Is this story fate? According to the saying in the movie, fate has nothing to do with a person, fate is only related to others, it is the expectation and belief of others for that person. However, the world is its own. The addition of others to oneself is fundamentally not beneficial to oneself. Man always carries his cross on his back and sings on the road leading to the long night.
The image and character of the protagonist is very, very, very full. A chameleon can only change itself with the environment, never know who i am, a lost boy who entertains himself by a one-man show in a small fish tank, a few lucks to turn himself into a "big hero", swelled to the extreme, and then little by little he was beaten back to his original form, met the soul of the west, and bravely saved the people of the town. From a vain, timid, daydreaming little person, to a true hero, full of tears.
Talk about men, heroes, humor, detectives, seriousness, women, myths, adventures, human nature, feelings... There is no shortage of them...
Say that there is tension and tension; say that there is a group drama in the group drama; make sense in the truth; say that love has love; tell the story more stories. Closed towns, the theory of natural enemies, the governor's control of resources, residents dancing Chinese characters when fetching water, the degeneration of the legal system, bank cashiers who only obey orders, palace bandits, fictional foreign enemies.
If you are a movie enthusiast, when you hear such a rich plot, you must have a thought to say:
"It must be a very difficult film to make well."
But this "Rango" is really good. This is a completely adult-only cartoon. I watched Frozen, Toy Story 3 and Rango in tandem. Compared to the simple plot of Frozen, a pure fairy tale, and the rough visual effects of Toy 3, the more realistic and abstract Lango is my favorite animation in the Oscars of best animation in recent years.
Frankly, I feel the way the first half hour of the movie narration, I am a little unaccustomed. As far as the protagonist's self-fantasy part is concerned, I think it is a bit too long, in order to highlight the personality of the protagonist, it is actually not too necessary. And the part that suddenly encountered the pangolin was a little bit abrupt, and then rushed to the desert, I think the plot is very abrupt.
And when the plot becomes the sheriff of Lango, the story gradually gets better. All the stories gradually became connected, and because of Rango's personality, he became a sheriff and was full of fun. And each small town character has its own peace of mind to play, none of them have too much, always just right. And the personality of each character is the personality of our general public, small things are easy to become very big, and it is easy to coherent from some small messages to a big event, which is a very humorous paragraph in the play. And the heroine suddenly suffers from frequency hopping crisis instant coagulation, which is a very cute part.
< Rango >, what has to be mentioned is the anthropomorphic deduction. The development of the story almost makes me feel that this is no longer like a group of desert creatures interpreting, and under the background of the soundtrack, the story is slowly being 'cowboy' and becoming more and more vivid.
The most amazing thing is that the scene of cowboys and mountain thieves grabbing water, lack of imagination, almost want to shoot it, it is impossible, which shows that the director's skills are so solid. And the ending paragraph, also in a very tense situation, humorously ends, as an entertainment film, this is absolutely passing. Rango's final "awakening", according to the so-called fate to become a legend, is instead a compromise to fate. The arrangement of the plot probably also wants to highlight the idea that "people are people in the story".
When I walked out of the cinema, I started asking myself, is the fluency of the movie really that important? After all, the rhythm of the whole movie is really after 30 minutes, and it has been very fast and nervous all the way down, completely without breathing. And the very old-fashioned story is wrapped in crazy pictures, and it is completely impossible to guess what will happen in the next moment.
Isn't this a cowboy movie? Who would have thought that the next moment of the battle would be an Eagle?
Isn't this a hero movie? Who would have thought it would become a detective movie?
Isn't this an action movie? Who would have thought that all the birds that ride and fly are bats? Even a villain can be a turtle, a snake?
Carefully think, although there are many shadows of movies, but the story can be picked up in the east and west, it can not be entertainment, this is the success of entertainment movies. And < Lango > in the entertainment film, absolutely competent, but the metaphor part is not brilliant enough, even if there is a large number of smoking shots, it may be in order to take into account the children's box office and can not be more inked in the reasonable part, otherwise the film can be more completely classified as an animation film for adults.
I was thinking that the cartoon mode is almost always in the "bear becomes a hero" mode, the same thousand times. In the modern era, as long as the animation itself is regarded as an ordinary movie, then it can achieve a certain degree of entertainment. I have always been looking forward to Pixar, after all, he can really appear on the big screen with a better posture than a film, Pixar is a lot of pressure, obviously many fans are also full of expectations for cartoons like me. After the blow brought by Zhou Xingchi in the last "Yangtze River No. 7", I found that as a general audience, I have become a pathology, and it is difficult not to compare.
How good, although this smorgasbord fried a lot of cold rice, but very hot. Definitely delicious cold rice, absolutely right for me. I think the so-called story is not fate. Man is the man in the story, and the story is the story of man. I don't have much to say about the story. I just hope that one day, I can lose the so-called story, and I can also lose the person who wrote the story
Leaving aside this ironic and realistic storyline, literary and black humorous lines (not Chinese translated lines), with this unique postmodern art style, superb rendering and textures, several wonderful action clips, beautiful scenes, I don't understand why there is only a rating of less than 8 points...
