My sister thought about it, the score of "Paddington Bear 2" actually surpassed "Dream Quest".
In my opinion, Paddington Bear 2 and Dream Quest are both good movies, but they are two completely different genres.
"Dream Quest" takes the concept of the undead to talk about the proposition of life and death, which moves people to cry in terms of family affection, while "Paddington Bear 2" also starts from family affection, but more is joy and warmth, warm to people's eyes.
Two types, the same destination.
If you've seen Paddington Bear, you know it's the perfect Christmas family movie. Three years ago, the word of mouth in the mainland was very good.
The tone of light humor, the cute character, and the warm theme around the family are best for sharing with the family.
Now it seems that paddington bears will be like this throughout the series.
The second part that is now released is even better than the first one.
"Paddington Bear 2" almost completely follows the original team, the director is still Paul King, the cute bear Paddington is still voiced by Ben Whishaw, and the Brown family is all actors in the previous film.
The only change is probably that the villain has changed from Australian beauty Nicole Kidman to British handsome Hugh Grant.
Grant plays a magician who is good at disguise in the film, an old man with a gray beard, and a well-dressed nun in the blink of an eye. Watching his ever-changing looks and expressions beneath his ever-changing appearance is one of the episode's greatest pleasures.
However, the supporting role is brilliant again, and the limelight is still incomparable with the absolute protagonist, Paddington the Little Cute Bear.
In the second part, Paddington is already fully integrated into a family member of the Brown family, and has established an inseparable relationship with the whole family.
So the main dramatic conflict in this part is to let Paddington be wrongfully imprisoned, to see how the Brown family can use their ingenuity to clear Paddington's grievances and bring him back to the home.
How Paddington, who is in prison, works perfectly with the Browns outside in prison to uncover the black hand behind the scenes.
In this process, the most exciting thing is Paddington's role in prison.
The prison in Paddington Bear 2 is completely different from what we see in the movie in the past, not at all vicious and scary, nor cold and cold. On the contrary, this prison is full of joy.
Excuse me？ joyous? jail? That's right, a prison of joy.
Of course, the joy is not there at the beginning, it is brought by the protagonist Paddington.
It was a stupid mistake by him, who was in charge of laundry in prison, that let the red socks and the prison uniform be thrown into the washing machine. So the criminals of the whole prison who were usually fierce and vicious brushed and put on pink striped shirts overnight.
It was his beautiful pursuit of food and his "solemn negotiations" with McGinty, the chief evil chef of the prison, who was not afraid of power, that all the inmates no longer had to endure the food that was difficult to swallow, and all of them ate Paddington's favorite marmalade.
Or he, with his most sincere kindness, infected every fellow inmate, and let everyone cook, decorate, and plant flowers in prison together. Kindergarten atmosphere.
Imagine a group of prisoners in pink prison uniforms setting up the prison like a Christmas party, hanging balloons and cooking food. Is there a kind of cuteness with a strange painting style?
This set of shots, there is a lot of ghost director Wes Anderson's shadow. Weiss's "Grand Budapest Hotel" in the first two years also uses a set of extremely bright and vivid colors and a highly neat composition to create a fantastic fairy tale kingdom.
Fairy tales are also the feelings that Paddington Bear 2 wants to bring us.
Looking at the whole film, you will find that the characters are those characters that we are familiar with, and the plot is also a bridge section that we are not unfamiliar with.
But after the director's reasonable arrangement and integration, it feels just right.
The laughs and heart-warming tears are stuck in a very accurate position.
Those silly and cute action expressions and lines, and those warm moments that warm people's hearts, are always at the right time to mobilize our emotions.
Coupled with the Easter egg-like London landmarks that the director intended to add - Paddington Station, Tower Bridge, the Shard, St. Paul's Cathedral, it can be said that it includes a variety of ancient and modern London scenery.
Here we should focus on Paddington Station. This is a very famous train station in London, from which Paddington the Bear bear bears get their name.
In the first part, it is here that the Brown family meets the bear. In the second part, Paddington Bear and the Brown family also set out from here and embark on a journey to capture the bad guys.
In the real Paddington Station, a statue of the Paddington bear is now erected, and there is a specialty shop selling Paddington bear souvenirs.
You know, one of the stories of "Paddington Bear" runs through the whole story, which is the legendary city of London.
In the second part, the origin of everything is Paddington's desire to bring his aunt to London.
One of the most important clues in the film is also a pop-up book of "12 Scenes of London".
It can be said that the city of London is perfectly implanted in "Paddington Bear".
How could a British audience not fall in love with the series?
Paddington Bear 2 is a film that knows how to simplify complexity, and it uses techniques that are not new at all to awaken our most primitive emotional needs.
Under the tone of light humor, under the main line of cracking the unsolved case, it has always emphasized that everyone will be touched by the human touch.
This human touch comes from the simple and kind Paddington, from the Brown family, from the originally fierce criminals in the prison, and from the lovely neighbors of the Brown family.
At the beginning and end of the film, a set of shots of this group of neighbors echoing from beginning to end is deliberately arranged.
Paddington's presence or absence affected not only the Brown family, but also the entire street.
The cute and well-behaved Paddington is the representative of the innocence and goodwill in him.
The neighbors couldn't live without Paddington because we couldn't live without that warm and touching kindness.
This is the best movie to take a family to spend 100 minutes.
Christmas is coming. Recommend everyone to go with your family to see it.
But it's also a movie that's very friendly to single dogs, because the movie itself is very healing, and on this cold winter night, let's feel warm, Paddington Bear brings us more hope.
