Canis Island

Watching Canis Island is also an accident. I have heard of it, but I haven't seen it in the cinema. I watched it by chance, which is still interesting. If you think of the movie as an American-Japanese hybrid, the proportion of Japanese blood will definitely be above 75%. The art style of the whole movie, the soundtrack, and the temperament of the main characters are all very Japanese-style aesthetics. I think some parts are really borrowed from Japanese traditional literature and art. At least it's not the kind that only has skin and no soul - yes, it's talking about Chinese culture-related movies made by Disney. The director is very sincere. The whole emotional ups and downs of the movie are not particularly large, and the emotional stimulation to people is relatively small, a very gentle movie. But very ingenious. It's really very delicate in production. The combination of 2D and stop-motion animation is also very clever. Language is a highlight. The author used English and Japanese in the movie, and played a language battle game, and some of the jokes are on this. I guess English and Japanese-speaking audiences will feel it more. Overall it's a well-crafted, delicate, tender film. I have to say that Japan's cultural output is really gentle and strong. Unconsciously, it was passed on, and it was also recognized by the audience.

In addition, whether it is portrayed in all aspects, or the rhythm of the film, it is quite good. If you have the opportunity, you can take a look. It is worthwhile to invest in shares.
