The long-awaited fantasy cartoon "Hotel Elf 2" is finally here. The same lineup and the same group of characters bring familiar and unfamiliar characters, still mysterious but full of emotion. I still clearly remember watching the first "Hotel Elf" three years ago. The feeling at that time can only be described as amazing in one word. In the past, the scary and bloody vampires in our impressions were given a new character and emotion, humor and humour. Joyful, kind, and responsible, the freshness exploded when the famous Dracula appeared with Frankenstein, Werewolf, Mummy, and Invisible Man in a new look.

The story of "Hotel Elf 2" continues seamlessly with the previous one, but it can also be independent, and the first-time audience can also easily enter. At a happy birthday party, the teenage vampire Mephis can be seen as a mother, living happily with her human husband Jonathan, half-blood son Dennis, and vampire father Dracula and a group of buddies in the forest In the forest, everything is as good as ever.

But when Dennis grew up and became a naughty cute baby, the problem came! Mephis tries to cultivate him into a real human, and even takes him to live in a human city, but Dracula, who is obsessed with the concept of tradition, is determined to let his grandson inherit the blood of vampires. The big troubles of the series, is the good life of people and vampires falling apart, or can they continue to love each other, is Dennis a human or a vampire? The answer is found in the movie.

Obviously, the movie is still about the collision of two different family concepts through the marriage and parenting of humans and vampires. This kind of dramatic conflict is also very common in reality. On the one hand, there is a big parent like Dracula, who maintains the family in a traditional way. I hope that my children and grandchildren can grow up with me under my own protection, just live in my homeland and don’t go out to take risks; on the other side is a young mother like Mephis, who knows that the outside world is very beautiful, I hope Let the children go out, enjoy the prosperity of the city, and have a broader life.

Maybe many parents have similar feelings. The hometown is very warm and unpretentious. Although the outside is prosperous, it is full of human complexity. How to choose, I believe everyone has their own choice. But like the Dracula family, the two generations can't reach an agreement on the way out for their children, and they insist on their own. Then it can only trigger a "war" like the movie, and see who has the stronger means.

"Hotel Elf 2" has evolved into a funny family comedy on such a common topic. The vampire and his old buddies have started a plan to cultivate vampires, but they can't think of the devil's height, and the more old-fashioned Vampire. Ladd came to suppress. At the same time, Dennis's body undergoes subtle changes, and the elf hotel is out of control. Of course, in the end, family love can overcome everything and become the ultimate magic weapon to solve all problems. The joyful vampire-style education carnival is full of twists and turns, but the ending is like As bright as fireworks.

Among the Hollywood animation series, "Hotel Elf 2" is a rare sequel film that can be better than blue. , a love that breaks through the barriers of identity and culture, and this same education battle is more fresh, more impactful, and more resonant with the audience.
