Cheerful and bright pictures, just right music, see the big from the small, and know the writing from the small.
The film can be roughly divided into two parts. Based on the emergence of two conflicting points, the story of the two parts is narrated. The overall tone is bright and cheerful, and the soundtrack selections are very suitable for the story characters and plot development, and the look and feel is very smooth.
In the first part of the film, the first conflict point appeared: when he was a child, he was ridiculed and ridiculed by the tribe because of his lack of musical talent, and Mambo fell into an embarrassing situation. As a result, Mambo and his father quarreled and ran away, and it was not until they met another penguin group, the Adelie penguins, that they found their lost confidence, and truly discovered the innate advantage and love of dancing, thus giving them a new look. This also makes Mambo, who was once cowardly and inferior, feel a new meaning of life and find the love of his life. To sum it up in one sentence, Mambo's life is - when God closes a door for you, he will surely open a window for you.
Then comes the second point of conflict in the film: the emperor penguins believe that the food shortage is caused by Mambo's disrespect, while Mambo insists that it is caused by the actions of a mysterious tribe. Naturally, Mambo started a journey of discovery with his Adélie penguin friends. Mambo went deep into human beings alone and became a part of the human tourism industry. He was lost for a short time, and finally got the help of human beings to restore the food chain to normal. This part more expresses a kind of spiritual quality, the spirit of persistent pursuit and not afraid of taking risks; it makes Mambo's transformed personal characteristics vividly show, and at the same time seeks reconciliation, both with his family and himself.
And this kind of plot is also in line with the characteristics of American films, always with some personal heroism, love of adventure, and a strong sense of responsibility; but at the same time, it never ignores the pursuit of the value of personal life, and emphasizes the meaning of life growth rather than immutability.
Finally, the feeling of watching the whole film is: not only enjoying the warm or soothing music, but also feeling the inspirational life belief conveyed by the film. To put it simply, I happily drank a bowl of Dabu Chicken Soup!
