This time it's a slightly younger Luca

Every Pixar movie goes to the cinema, and for a lot of people, each one is inevitably compared to the last or even the previous one, although I find this comparison boring. My daughter was less than 1 year old when Dream Searching Travels was released; she was 3 years old when Soul Adventures was released; I went to see it with her when Summer Friends was released. She was very happy to watch it - just "little fun" - because of the epidemic, the cinema did not sell cool potatoes and popcorn. She was very dissatisfied and even brooded about it. She even said that Luca was not good-looking and she did not enjoy it at all. It's a pleasant feeling to watch a movie while eating popcorn. As a senior cinema fan, I understand her feeling very well. You must know that in the hearts of cinema fans, it is really very important to have a satisfying viewing process in the cinema without regrets. But when I asked her which clip was the funniest, she didn't hesitate to say that she liked Julia's cat the most, and she giggled when there was a clip of that stupid, cute cat. She also liked the part where the stars turned into fish, because she also felt that the stars were like fish, and the night sky was like an endless sea. Other than that, she said she wasn't impressed - it's definitely still a pot of movie theaters that don't sell popcorn.

To me, Luca seems a little underwhelming overall, and I'm a little bit unaccustomed to Pixar being underwhelmed—although it would be subjectively unfair to Pixar to say that. But Luca is indeed an old-fashioned plot, with a low theme, and the solution to the final problem and the Happy ending are really deliberate and even blunt. Even if it is understood that the politically correct majority must amicably accept the minority, the process of acceptance is not so easy to achieve. In short, there are many delicate twists and necessary foreshadowing. But this is a Pixar movie. It is good at sublimating conventional plots with profound themes to produce countless Pixar movies. I believe that the audience has expressed Luca's regrets and deficiencies with ratings.

Of course, it is not without its bright spots. What impressed me the most was the part of Julia and Luca reading the book. Luca gained new knowledge through reading and opened a new door to the world. In the end, Abeto asked Luca to help him figure out what "lucky meeting" is, which was the point that struck me the most. The world is so big, as long as you want to go and dare to see it, you can definitely figure out what you want to know, and you must find what you want to do, and finally get what you want. I think this point is a topic that can be discussed with my daughter, but goose, she doesn't want to talk to me about this issue now, but it doesn't matter, I believe she will discuss this issue with me sooner or later.
