Ocean's Edge: This is a great ocean movie with creative details and music
Text/Tian Jinshuang
The genius of Ocean's Edge lies not only in its witty story, but also in its whimsical ideas: every shot in the film is full of humor and bizarre taste, and every frame is perfect in detail.
The protagonist in the film, the little polynesian indigenous princess Moana, just appeared, found a small turtle chased by a red-billed crow on the beach, Moana rescued the little turtle, and then the small wave instantly turned into a sea baby, flying happily around Moana, everything was so interesting.
The highlights of the film can be seen everywhere, the most wonderful thing is the tattoo on Maui's body, and every time Maoyi's legendary experience, a tattoo appears on his body. In other words, Maui's skin is like a pre-ancient mythological history, a history textbook or a mythological treasure book, and all the details are involved. More interestingly, Mao's tattoo story has a little person who looks exactly like him. It also represents Maui's inner world. So, when Maui, who has less courage, fights or competes with the little people on his skin, everything seems so fun. And when Maui and the little person who represents himself coincide with each other's opinions or ideas, the two sides will clap their hands and high-five each other.
From the perspective of the polynesian culture of the indigenous tribes of the South Pacific, the film is also very accurate in the performance of indigenous folk customs and culture. For example, although this tribe is a woodland settled people, it was also a hai tribe before, and it also has its own mythological traditions and legends. And the mythical demigod character Maui, in addition to the tattoos on the body that can be alive, there is also an interesting magic weapon - the magic fish hook. So, in a sense, "Ocean Adventure" is also about the process of fish, birds and people gradually moving from marine culture to land culture. However, in the film, after the demigod Maui stole the Ocean Star and was defeated, he lost his courage, claiming that he could not do anything without the magic fish hook, and in the end, he also defeated himself with his courage and courage to find his inner world. Because, in a sense, the rescue process of the clan tribe by the little Moana who was chosen as the angel of the sea is also Maui's self-rescue journey, which is very humorous and funny and inspirational in terms of the spiritual core of the film.
In addition to the storyline of "Ocean's Edge", every frame in the film is beautiful, each frame can be used as a computer screensaver and wallpaper, and the soundtrack in the film is easily reminiscent of the Disney animation "The Lion King" many years ago. Or, we can put it very simply, even if we don't watch the story, just listening to the music in the film has a wonderful spiritual enjoyment. In mind, a large part of the film's amazing effect is due to the soundtrack, note that to match the dazzling graphics of fantasy, Ocean's Edge has assembled a luxurious and diverse musical team: Lin Manuel Miranda, who won the Tony Award for "Hamilton" and "Life in the Highlands", Grammy award-winning composer Mark Mansina, who has created classic works such as "The Speed of Life and Death", "The Lion King", "Tarzan of the Apes", and opetaia Foa i, the lead singer and creator of the band Te vaka. Team up to create a beautiful soundtrack for the film. The intervention of these well-known musicians directly elevated the level of the entire film.
This film tells us that the space we live in needs more exploration and perception, and that we become human beings in the true sense of the word as long as we learn to think.
