=======================
The theme of the film is all-encompassing, and it’s amazing to show so many things in just 100 minutes.
If it is said that the first part is to allow Bru to retrieve a little wildness from the state of being raised by humans-dare to fly and emphasize the importance of wildness, then the second part makes Bruton's human aspect to save the race. The key is to emphasize the importance of living in harmony with human beings.
Robert is the character that attracts my attention the most. It is a comparison target set by the director for Bruce.
The film is a musical, but none of the nearly 20 songs impressed me.
The colorful Amazon rainforest and animal world depicted in the film make people yearn for.
The film has a strong species complexity, but in fact this is the complexity of human nature.
======================
It is said that "Rio Adventure" is a trilogy, but in fact, in this sequel, its theme is quite complete , The space for improvement is getting smaller and smaller. Isn't it? In this film, there are love (normal love, abnormal love), family affection, revenge, confrontation, football, singing and dancing, feelings between people and animals, environmental protection, lively Rio de Janeiro, and rich Amazon Rainforest...I can't think of what it has nothing to do.
If it is said that the first part is to allow Bru to retrieve a little wildness from the state of being raised by humans-dare to fly and emphasize the importance of wildness, then the second part makes Bruton's human aspect to save the race. The key is to emphasize the importance of living in harmony with human beings. Animals and people, whether it is the relationship between pets and owners, or the relationship between friends, its pros and cons are double-edged swords, which have been shown successively in the two films before and after. From this perspective, it is also difficult for me to imagine if there is a third book, it can make any new articles on the relationship between people and macaws.
Nagill, who likes to recite Shakespeare, performed a tragedy of revenge herself; the tree frog disguised herself as poisonous with a beautiful pink color, and even made her think that she was really poisonous, but she never pretended to love; the macaw tribe The pride of Robert, is handsome, good singing voice, high playing skills, has countless advantages that fascinate thousands of people, but he is timid when facing humans. People who are immersed in themselves and unable to extricate themselves, those who blind themselves but expose themselves, and those who hide their inferiority with gorgeousness, don't these characters exist alive everywhere in their lives?
In the existing film reviews, there are more people who talk about Nagill and tree frogs, but fewer people talk about Robert. In fact, Robert is the target of comparison set by the film for Bruce. He defeated Bru in all external aspects, but lacked the courage to defend his family in real crises. The director used Blu's final "complete victory" to accuse what kind of talent is the most reliable person in life.
The point where the film breaks the first balance is the setting of the scarcity of blue macaws. When we look at Bru from the perspective of scarcity, as it once thought, the film actually has a tragic shell. No matter how bright and colorful its content, how singing and dancing it is, it is ultimately A story of Bru alone or at best his family survived alone. But the sequel completely stripped away this hidden tragic shell. It turns out that Brue is not alone, it also has ethnic groups and homes. At this time, the film entered a state of pure comedy.
This change is a very important emotional change in "Rio Adventure 2". It would be even better if the film can express how Brute feels that he is the only one and suddenly realizes that he is no longer the only one. If I were Blue, when I knew there were other blue macaws in the world, would I simply look forward to looking for them? After all, it is worth thinking about whether they have reduced or increased the value of my existence. Maybe at the beginning I would think that my value has decreased, but then I will gradually agree that my value has been improved in the ethnic group.
Another change in the sequel worthy of comment is that Brue not only fell in love, but also had children. The reason why the story of the prince and princess always has no future is that once they have children, things return from the idealistic romantic state to the realist secular state. Therefore, the film's description of the relationship between Brue and his family, especially his children, has the kind of simple taste that American films are used to. Perhaps this in itself is a manifestation of the American concept of family and education. In short, the father's discipline and influence on the children , And did not fully show it. The audience is more moved by the family relationship between Bru's wife and his father, but it is difficult for the protagonist's family to feel the kind of strong emotional bond that should be. In other words, it only has love, but it is difficult to see father's love.
At the beginning of the film, it was repeatedly emphasized that Brue is a person who likes to say "no." Unfortunately, the film did not seize this clue later, highlighting Brue's transformation from a philosophy of life that cannot be done to a philosophy of life that can be done. I have been looking forward to the moment when he stopped saying "no", but unfortunately this heavyweight speech did not come.
