Although "Alpha: The Return of the Wolf Companion" is not the kind of hollywood A-grade blockbuster that is famous and does not use any big stars, it is not ambiguous in production, and it is a very rare visual blockbuster in recent years, and it will definitely become a surprise in the summer program!
The following "Ten Sentences Film Review", the poisonous tongue jun will come to introduce this film to everyone well!
1. The film shows the picture of human life and adventure 20,000 years ago, so the story is not complicated, and the simple and plain plot echoes with the vast and magnificent landscape, but it makes people feel quite compatible! The film tells the story of a tribal leader of prehistoric humans who leads his men out hunting, and his newly adult son accompanies him for the first time. But during a bison hunt, the chief's son was swept off a cliff by the bison, and everyone thought he was bound to die. But he was lucky enough to survive and teamed up with a wolf on the long journey home.
2, it is no exaggeration to say that this film can make you feel the charm from the beginning, because the picture is really too eye-catching, the beauty of the natural landscape is no less than any nature documentary you have seen, "people can't help but want to lick the screen" such a praise word is really suitable for this film!
3. Whether it is the spectacular vista of the bison herd on the cliff side at the beginning, or the silent night full of stars later, the beautiful dusk of the sunset, the magnificent and lonely plain river, the snowy world, the dreamlike aurora scene... The beauty of the natural scenery of different seasons and different scenes in the ancient world can be described as ubiquitous in the film, and the cinematography is also extremely exquisite and beautiful, as well as the blessing of computer special effects, the whole film is really a feast for the eyes. Although Hollywood has also made some ancient movies, "Alpha: The Return of the Wolf" is definitely the most eye-catching one. Such a film is actually the most suitable for viewing on the imax screen, and will undoubtedly become a top audiovisual feast.
4. In addition to exquisite photography and eye-catching pictures, the atmosphere of the film is also very well coordinated, creating a vast and ancient atmosphere, which is easy for the audience to have a sense of immersion. What often appears in the film is a small group of humans or a man and a wolf, walking in the silent wilderness with excellent scenery, thus highlighting the small and resolute existence of human beings in the ancient world. The stacked stone towers of human beings and the handprint road signs on the stone towers also make people deeply feel the imprint left by "ancient civilizations" on the world.
5. At the same time, the beauty of the two main characters in the film, one man and one wolf, also echoes the beauty of the scenery. Although ancient humans should be brown brothers, the film still designed the image of "Hua Mei Man" for the son of the tribal leader, who is the male protagonist of this film, and it is no exaggeration to be a "Hua Mei Man" who meets modern aesthetic standards. This is also the reason why the film uses the weakness of appearance to explain the reason why he was swept off the cliff by the bison, and also reflects the inner tenacity and tenacity that he later showed when he returned home alone. From the perspective of a person embarking on a long journey home, this film can also be seen as a prehistoric version of "The Revenant".
6, the wolf in the film is also definitely a cute existence like a cute thing. Because the initial setting of the relationship between this wolf and the male protagonist is that it follows the wolves to besiege the male protagonist, and ends in defeat and injury after several battles, but the male protagonist can't bear to kill it, but makes a decision that may change the history of mankind, takes care of it and slowly recovers, and gradually becomes friends with it. Therefore, when this wolf is with the male protagonist, it is often a well-behaved image with a low eyebrow and a pleasing eye, and only occasionally roars with its teeth. After getting acquainted with the male protagonist, they formed a friend relationship of hunting and surviving together, which looks more soft and cute, and some expressions will even make people feel that animals also have acting skills. Later, the thrilling action scene of the saber-toothed tiger and the rescue of the male protagonist showed its loyalty and fearlessness.
7. Since the title of the film is "The Way Home with Wolves", the friendship between people and wolves along the way is naturally one of the highlights of this film. The film also designs many scenes that are warm, interesting, tense, or touching in the relevant plots of people and wolves living, hunting, and adventure. It can be said that the film is full of the most beautiful imagination of the main creators for the "harmonious coexistence" between prehistoric people and wolves, and the more you look at the audience, the more you may understand that this is both the "return of the wolf companion" and the "dog history", which is very suitable for pet lovers such as cat slaves and dog slaves.
8, in the end, the male protagonist can return home accompanied by a wolf, although there are also exaggerated elements of the film that opens the "protagonist aura", but it also makes a reasonable preparation in some details. For example, the opening part of the film highlights the male protagonist's mental ingenuity through the scene of the grinding stone tool, which shows that he has enough wisdom and skills to survive in the wild, especially he knows how to use the "wolf king mode" to make the wolf obey his orders, which is definitely the embodiment of the male protagonist's superior wisdom. His soft heart, which was unwilling to kill and full of good intentions, also provided a certain degree of rationality for the later "companionship of man and wolf". It can be said that the personality of the male protagonist in the film is also the projection of mainstream Western values in the film.
9. In addition to the love of human wolves, the affection and friendship between human beings are also the embodiment of very positive energy in the film. There are no despicable villains with bad intentions in the film, prehistoric humans are brave, simple, and upright images, the tribal leader cries bitterly for his son who has fallen off a cliff, and does not want to leave for a long time, and the male protagonist's mother is also concerned about him, as if there is a mother-child telepathy. These few strong family love scenes are also the film's attempt to remind the audience by creating sensational effects that family affection is the most worthy of attention and preciousness in life!
10. Although there are not many action scenes in this film, each action scene is unambiguously created. At the beginning of the scene of hunting bison, the soundtrack and rhythm sense suddenly become majestic and exciting, the beauty of the wild is about to come out, and several beautiful slow motions of the man-cow war are even reminiscent of "Spartan 300 Warriors".
