Although the protagonist of the "Kung Fu Panda" series is a panda, although the painting style is very oriental, and although it tells a martial arts story, it is not the martial arts world familiar to contemporary Chinese. Kung fu and martial arts may be the most beautiful misunderstanding of China by Americans, just like we always think that capitalism is all about money.
We used to have a world full of kung fu and martial arts, but after Yashan, this world no longer exists. We have had many great knights, such as Jing Ke. In the face of the mighty king of the empire, they had to hit the stone with the egg. The chivalrous person used martial arts to violate the ban, which is probably the meaning. In addition to the splendid cultural heritage, the history of more than 5,000 years has also made us smooth. When smoothness becomes the characteristic of a nation, it is impossible for this nation to produce real knights. The stubborn neighbors just inherited our martial arts culture, so the knights in the eyes of Americans are closer to the Japanese ninjas in spirit. For example, Batman was trained by ninjas; for example, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, even the name has the word ninja. ; As for the "Kung Fu Panda" series, it can also be seen as the birth and growth of a ninja master.
Why do Americans respect ninjas so much? Presumably because of the same values of finding your true self, which is finding the answer to "Who am I?", which is the theme of the Kung Fu Panda series. As a panda raised by a geese, Po has to keep answering "Who am I?" I remember Uncle Long in "The 10th Screening Room" when he introduced Western animation heroes: " Everyone can be a hero, but it's destiny to be a hero." I think this is the best review of the Kung Fu Panda series.
Is "Kung Fu Panda 3" good? My answer is yes. Whether you say Chinese people in the film industry have money, or you say that movies promote American values, I can see the sincerity of the producers: for example, the traditional logo has been replaced by A Bao, such as lifelike animal hairs, such as beauty The magnificent Chinese painting style.
The beauty of "Kung Fu Panda 3" is that it is suitable for people of all ages to watch the movie. The funny scenes and dialogues will make little friends very happy. For adults, in addition to the visual effects, it may also remind us of the past Past martial arts dreams: When we were children, when we were carrying toy weapons made of various materials and mingling with our friends, did we fantasize about becoming the commander-in-chief of sweeping the army like the young master turtle?
"Kung Fu Panda 3" is very warm, and this is what has always impressed me with Hollywood animation, Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks, do you want your children to only learn how to use a frying pan after watching animation, or Want your children to understand the meaning of family and friends through animation?
Because I watched the Mandarin version, the biggest surprise was naturally the dubbing of Jackie Chan and Zhang Guoli. Finally, everyone no longer had to worry about how Fang Zuming and Zhang Mo looked alike, because Jackie Chan and Zhang Guoli had a common son - Panda Po.
Finally, sum up some easter eggs: 1. The scene of Po standing in the belly of the dragon may be inspired by "Dragon Fighter" ("The Legend of Demon Heroes"). 2. With the constant selling of cute dragons by A Bao, is it very similar to the Mushu dragon of Hua Mulan? 3. The last dialogue between Po and Master Turtle is a reproduction of the encounter between Harry Potter and Professor Dumbledore at Station Nine and Three Quarters.
