If I could only recommend one cartoon, I think I would say 9, not Nine, which are two completely different movies.

Compared with live-action films, Hollywood cartoons have gradually reached their peak in recent years, not to mention the most popular Kung-Fu Panda, Ice Age, or Madagascar, they are simple but each one is fresh and lovely, even G -Force's "small" production is not too ugly. It's not like the live-action versions of "Chunli Biography", "Kung Fu King" and "Dragon Ball", which are too vulgar and unbearable. If the director himself has no confidence in making a film, he might as well just make it into an animation. "It's shallow on paper." People who draw things have this psychological awareness, so they won't complain that your acting is too flat. Or the plot is too contrived. As for Ratatouille and Wall-E, they can only be said to be handsome. They must be funny and funny, emotional and emotional, acting and acting, and they must have depth and depth. They basically have everything a commercial film should have. problem.

It was said that I saw Passenger first, but I actually went to Hathaway. The weather was cold, and my eyes went dark after watching it. Thinking about watching 9 next, you can relax, because I have seen the trailer before, and it is basically a bright feeling. Unexpectedly, the opening of the feature film was quite depressing. At that time, there was a kind of resentment after stepping down the stairs with one foot - no wonder it was PG-13. After conquering almost every genre such as Sci-fi, Horror, Thriller, Romance, Comedy, Drama, etc., Hollywood's apocalyptic feeling finally climbed the Animation branch. One of the advantages of cartoons is that they can easily restore the true colors of things, depict emotions in the most concise way, suppress evil and promote good, and at the same time have a certain natural immunity to the word "shallow". Looking back on it after reading it, "9" is so simple that it is just the natural interweaving of light and shadow, the entanglement of human nature between good and evil. This kind of direct-to-the-core narrative is inexplicably moving. Compared with many live-action films that spare no expense, there is a kind of pleasure in directly taking the head of an admiral out of a million troops.

From the director's point of view, the unity of darkness and light is human nature. In the end, 7 and 9 are like the fire thieves in the last days, grabbing hope from evil, and there should be love left. The person who dubs 7 is actually Jenifer Connelly. I don't like this person very much, but 7's pure and straightforward voice makes people think that her voice is still good. 9 is Elijah Wood, who is also unexpectedly clean and lovely, once again proving that animation itself is a good medicine to remove the rough and extract the essence and turn the decay into magic.

The last thing to say is that the simple Title itself is actually a self-declaration full of tension. Another famous short title film Up and 9 have caught up with the schedule, but compared with Up only the first ten minutes are not bad. , 9 That boiled frog-like evolution method has obviously much more stamina, and it has lived up to such a good title.
