There are also four animal protagonists with stunts, all of whom have appeared in animated series, and the movies are all light-hearted and brainless action comedy routes. The treatment of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is very different from this film. Although the tortoises didn't make less box office, but looking at the comments online, you could vaguely feel the disgusting expression on the publisher's face when they typed these words in front of the computer, and couldn't help feeling sad for the tortoises. The reason is also very simple, just one word, ugliness. I don’t have such a strong feeling, but it is undeniable that the four turtles who are always treated as monsters will be ashamed of themselves if they see the fat birds in this film that can accumulate super popularity by standing and doing nothing. Fortunately, he will be as black as the Doctor Octopus in this film. By the way, the Medusa serum used by the great villain Debbie Octopus (not Debbie, but Dave) to disfigure the penguin looks very similar to the color of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which makes me wonder the source of this serum...
In the previous three "Madagascar" penguins, although they were robbed of the show, I have not been able to distinguish between them. Regarding the Penguin animated series, I only glanced at the CCAV children's channel accidentally, and I felt that it was not particularly appetizing and I didn't look at it. So this film is the first time I have gotten to know these four guys in depth, and the director helped me overcome the impact of my face blindness on watching this film to the greatest extent, and successfully distinguished the four protagonists in the shortest time. The rookie who has been entrusted with the important task of "being a beautiful man quietly" because of his cute image, Rui Ge with a different dimension bag on his stomach, the boss who is very cocky, and the only one of the four protagonists Kowski is a little more rational. The four penguins with similar shapes but different personalities are all impressive, and the distribution of each other's roles is relatively even. While the boss and rookie performed eye-catchingly, Rui Ge and Kowowski were not coldly treated, and each contributed an indispensable force to the final effect of the film. In this regard, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles should learn more from this film.
In order to increase the selling point, this film specially invited the star dubbing lineup led by John Malkovich. The octopus Jubi dubbed by John Malkovich (...not Jubi, Dave) is the most interesting character in the film. Seeing his vivid expression on the screen, I can imagine what the old man was when he was dubbing state. This film does not use expression capture, but it does not rule out the possibility that the expression of Paul the octopus (...not Paul, it is Dave) is drawn according to the voice actor. In addition to the villain himself, his subordinates are also bright spots. Their behavior is a bit similar to the minions in "Despicable Me", and the naming method is a special joke for taking care of an elderly audience like me. . I can remember Nicholas Cage, Halle Berry, Hugh Jackman (off-topic, Uncle Wolf dubbed Penguin in the Australian animation "Happy Feet"~), and other welcome additions.
Generally, I don’t say anything about the music of the movie, because I don’t have much say in this area. But the soundtrack of this film really caught my attention. What I want to say is that when the North Wind Secret Service debuted (or showed off by myself), it was accompanied by a very passionate and energetic song. Does anyone like me think that it sounds like an agricultural heavy metal style? I'm not hacking it, because it feels that the director may have deliberately added such a cool and exaggerated piece of music that is incompatible with the style of the movie to increase the comedy effect. The other three penguins went to the bow to perform the song that attracted the enemy's attention. It was too brainwashed, and it sounded a bit like Happy Tree Friends.
Although the music in the appearance is too much to make it look a little second, but the North Wind Secret Service in this film is still very tall as a whole, and I don’t forget to enjoy the wine and food in the fantasy drifting on the sea, plus the leader of the United Kingdom. The accent should be easily reminiscent of 007. The little seal, the blasting expert of the North Wind Secret Service, has a cute shape and is not lost to a few penguins, but I am still worried that he will suddenly blacken. Mainly because the news "Seal [Beep] [Beep] Penguin" I watched the last two days left me too serious psychological shadow. Moreover, the seal in this film is still Zheng Ken's nervous voice, which makes people worry about whether a perverted heart is hidden under its cute appearance.
Regarding the species of the leader of the Beifeng Bureau, I am actually a little puzzled. At first I thought it was a wolf, but then I saw that he was surrounded by polar bears and seals, so I wondered if he was an Alaskan malamute. Especially when he chased the penguins out of Shanghai, he still had a flying disc. I don't know if wolves also have this habit. If it is really an Alaskan Malamute, think of Shanghai as an important stage of the film. I couldn't help but doubt the identity of this agent. A few months ago, a young director from Shanghai made a movie in which one of the protagonists was an Alaskan dog. This one in the film did not reveal his name from beginning to end (but the penguin boss thought his name was "confidential" in wishful thinking). I boldly speculated that his real name should be called "Madagascar"! Then the title of this film has another meaning: the penguin kept by Madagascar, the overbearing director of the North Wind Bureau, by the local tyrant special agency S.H.I.E.L.D.!
