The movie is really like a journey. In the movie, the heroine lost her father and found Shenlong on the journey to rescue her father. The Shenlong Xisu has a big mouth, a hoarse voice, a naughty smile, and an optimistic smile. Although his age Not small, but lively like a child. Much like my grandfather's last carer, a Vietnamese aunt. My grandfather just passed away this month, and this Vietnamese aunt was hired as a carer in his final months. What's even more amazing is that in the movie, Xisu has always been obsessed with bringing gifts to visit people from different countries, and my Vietnamese auntie did the same, buying all kinds of gifts for us. Every day is happy and has a love for enjoyment. A striking resemblance indeed. I also cried at the beginning of the film, when I saw the heroine's father turned into a stone statue, and after seeing Xisu's hair and her slightly dark and thin face with a big smile, I felt like that aunt several times.
Back in the movie, Xisu also had a down time, she crouched beside the boat and said that the dark devil is a plague. Yes, this is the theme that has continued from 2020 to the present. There are various hypotheses about the origin of this virus. One of them is that this is a man-made virus, the product of a biochemical weapon leaked by a certain country. The origin of biological and chemical weapons is probably the time when Japan and other countries attracted human attention during World War II. And the movie is also telling such a story. Because of the uneven resources, wars broke out among various races, but inadvertently created a devastating disaster, but they are worse than us, they can only avoid and cannot fight back. We can protect ourselves and fight the virus with modern science and technology. In the film, they can only resist the dark devil through the river. The virus at the beginning of 2020, just like our river was polluted by the virus, many people were poisoned and fell down. My grandpa also had more difficulty breathing in his lungs this year, then had a stroke and passed away this year. What the film says is that this result is because of everyone's distrust. In fact, I think the distrust is that everyone is thinking of themselves first. In fact, this seems to be understandable. Everyone is born with the desire to live. Then there is distrust in the competition for resources between people. After all, it is a competitive relationship. But this is the level of life is different. As astrology taught me, relationships and love are higher than resources and personal desires, and if life is all about being satisfied and getting resources, without love and relationships, it's actually… unimaginable. The final ending of the film is to realize the federal state, and everyone lives together happily. After all, it is a cartoon. There is love in reality, but people will still fight for resources. Even a very Buddhist person, like us young people in their twenties, lives in competition, competing for grades when studying, competing for salary levels in work, competing for housing, and living a better life for the next generation. Great competition. But I think the meaning of life lies in the fact that there are different choices and diversity. It is impossible for everyone to have the same good work experience, salary and housing, and the choices available to everyone are different, but we should learn from our lives. What to do, make the right choice.
Why do I say that, it is probably because I believe in the soul. At the back of the film, the second female chooses to combine the crystals, and it also becomes a stone statue. At this time, there is no one in the world in the film. If the earth is also in this situation, I ask, has human beings really perished? I think the answer is no. The human body may no longer exist, or even the earth is no longer there, but the human soul is still there. Great virtue. We are not playing a game, we can choose the beginning and the end of ourselves, if our soul is alive, then what we do must have cause and effect. In fact, morality may not really be for oneself, it may be a kind of divinity. Shisu and her brothers and sisters, maybe God really protects us. The film imagines a kind of god, and the dragons sacrificed to protect us until only one dragon remained. Yes, maybe even gods will need to sacrifice and die from arrows. Maybe the film tells us that we should put down our own personal interests through this scene.
It sounds grand, but in fact, back to myself, I am someone who is still learning to be more social in life, have intimate relationships, learn to work diligently, and learn to love people passionately. I do not deny that in these stages of life we also have desires. When we are born with babyfaces, we have the desire to survive and hope that others will take care of us. As human beings, we inevitably have desires and competition. But we may die with great love. In the process of being alive during this period, we must experience family, friendship, and love. Inevitably there may be, misunderstanding, betrayal, quarrel, misunderstanding. We are born warriors, fight for our benefit, but we can't just be warriors, we must learn the abilities of different roles in different stages of human beings.
In short, the movie brought me joy and thinking, Southeast Asian culture gave me a different understanding of life, and also relieved some of the sadness of the death of my relatives some time ago, Disney also showed a vision of a community of shared future for mankind, which is indeed in line with the present, For peace, cheers, praise~
