    I really admire Wes Anderson, always maintaining a high level of personal style, while allowing new elements to give off a flavor that only he can make. Who can resist a group of dogs with distinct personalities that warm your heart in such a humorous...

    It is perfect to watch "Island of Dogs" during the Spring Festival of the Year of the Dog. It's still Wes Anderson's kind of quirky humor. People who like it will love it very much, and people who don't like it will find it rambling and idealistic, but at least the Japanese elements have been brought to the extreme. The story is dark and cute, and the cat has become an invisible boss. If it can be released in China, it will be a big...

    Wess: Exploring wildly on the edge of cultural appropriation. If Darjeeling’s outlook on the cultural other is still self-deprecating, then “Isle of Dogs” is only superficial and self-righteous: aesthetics and tribute are all skins, but sensitivity is lost, no wonder professor Look pissed. I will not talk about the extreme stereotypes of cats, dogs, and Japanese. Director Wei can be confident not to translate, and try to use the language of the movie to make English audiences buy it...

    The dog was rescued by the teenager, but it also means that the dog is re-submitted to the orderly world established by humans. Attempts to reverse the identity of the viewing subject through language strategies, but at the same time once again consolidate the English-non-English hegemonic structure. The reality we live in is full of such futile struggles, but at least we can see a future of love in the fairy tales constructed by...

    The first half of the searcher-style tracing plot is fairly smooth, and the image elements of Leone and Akira Kurosawa are also quite pleasing, but the latter turns sharply, easily destroying the core emotion of the construction, and replacing it with superficial and boring political metaphors. Once again, it proves that WA has gone further and further on the road of formalism. Like Nolan, his personal style has become a shackle and...

    After all, the story is too weak to be interesting. . And there is a strange slot: it is not acceptable to deliberately not translate Japanese subtitles in order to unify the style, and deliberately add the form of simultaneous interpretation to the plot. Especially where there is no translation, although it is probably understandable, after all, there is still an extra layer of film, which is not transparent and...

Isle of Dogs quotes

  • Chief: That kid is gonna get us all put to sleep. Euthanized. We won't find the dog, but we will die trying.

    Rex: Not a bad way to go.

  • Chief: Rex! King! Duke! Boss! You made it!

    Rex: What happened to you?

    Chief: I took a bath.

    Rex: What, he's got soap?

    Chief: Just a little.

    Rex: You're too fluffy.

    Chief: We played fetch.

    Rex: With a stick?

    Chief: With a hunk of rubber radiator tubing.

    Rex: And you brought it back to him?

    Chief: Yeah. He's a good boy.

    Rex: Don't you tell me that! I was the one that tried to make you be loyal to him in the first place!

    Chief: Stop, *stop*! This is the rendevous! Where's that trash-tram taking you?

    Rex: You think we booked this flight through a travel agent? We were fighting for our lives in a high-velocity trash-processor while you were getting scrubbed and brushed!

    Chief: Jump!

    Rex: Where?

    Chief: Here!

    Rex: When?

    Chief: Now!

    Rex: Why?

    Chief: *What*?
