"Crazy Alien": Misunderstandings of DreamWorks

The film has gone further and further on the road of younger age, and it has disappeared far from the past wit and humor. It has embarked on a family-friendly road of no return, and can no longer find its own characteristics, although it has expanded to all. The audience group, but the boring ending and fixed logical relationship make people's expectations for animation lower and lower. The movie itself does not deviate from the setting of the weirdo, blindly repeating the usual role setting of DreamWorks, and the story is not very tortuous. It is almost a very straightforward plot development, allowing people to see at a glance. At the end, there is no real suspense. The movie has almost no concept of villain. It is too prominent to set off the atmosphere but does not give a wonderful and intense ending. Although it gives people a sense of immediate light, it is empty in people’s hearts. It leaves a shadow that is not strong enough, which is very boring. The interaction between the characters is also relatively simple to deal with, and there is no strong emotional rendering, and there are almost no twists and turns in the feelings between the characters, which are rendered and intertwined like a one-shot, which is quite lacking in appeal. However, the movie still highlights a simple happiness, inducing people to feel the happiness of ignorance, purely shaping a seemingly primitive and simple peace, but it creates a terrifying disaster. Based on this setting, the plot of the movie is very simple, as if it is a children’s book, allowing us to understand and learn about the problems and relationships between people. Just as a movie, it is still lacking. A powerful plot guide and the setting of fatalism propositions make the film unknowingly move towards a purely entertaining commercial film.

As an adaptation of a children’s book, the originality of the film is in line with the current interpretation of children’s times, and a considerable part of the adaptation of the plot is definitely a partial portrayal of children’s daily life. The film captures the current life. Under the rhythm, the emotion and innocence of children’s cognition, and the judgment of fear simply rise to the rumor that is falsely spread. Such a plot setting shows the innocence and simplicity, and enriches the relationship between the characters. The idealized way of existence in the children's world has weakened the jerky storyline and made it easy to understand, popular and simple. To a large extent, movies try to use exaggerated and funny methods to enhance the sensory stimulation that movies bring to people. Although there is no laughter compared to adult audiences, it is exactly The behavior that triggered them to imitate. The movie uses the Japanese cartoon format to render the plot. In terms of the whole story format, it is full of creativity, and all kinds of plot fantasy are full of rich imagination, but the simplicity and powerlessness of the plot drags down the whole story. The overall excitement and viewability, I have to say, the fixed range of the movie's target audience makes the whole movie feel a little bit inferior to everyone. However, as the soul of the movie, love and understanding make the movie full of positive energy. Through compensation and exploration of right and wrong, people finally realize the truest self and break the old world and create a new world by understanding the truth. He has completed his life transformation and realized his own value. I have to say that the thoughts and values ​​established by the film are full of positive energy. The freaks become heroes and the troublemaker achieves the Great Commission. Although it is an old story mode, and the movie does not have an excellent refurbishment of the storyline, it has created one for us through the concept of stealing old wine in new bottles. A simple and warm and humanistic movie story, and the movie always emphasizes that the protagonist is just a good-hearted character who does bad things. Although he is incompatible with the outside world, he has not destroyed his kind and friendly heart. I have to say Such a character deserves our admiration and sympathy.

As the story of an alien invading the earth, the film did not waste a little space telling the story of war. This non-violent setting reflects the director’s position as a peace lover, and the atmosphere of Greenpeace not only beautifies the aliens. The established reality of human invading the earth also creates an atmosphere in which humans and aliens can live in peace. However, the director ignored the painful and violent nature of invasion. Even if it was a peaceful invasion, it did not change the unfriendly situation of occupying other people’s homes and changing the will of others. The film weakened the impact of alien invasion. The pain strengthened the interaction between the little girl and the aliens, and covered up the reality of large-scale aggression with a small area of ​​peace and tranquility to help each other. It has to be said that the director did not really tell the story from a moral point of view, but also one-sidedly covered it. In addition to the anxiety and pain caused by the invasion, whether the invasion of aliens can bring the world to peace is a false proposition in itself.

In recent years, DreamWorks animations have brought us more and more original animations, but there are fewer and fewer truly meaningful animations. The excessive demands to pursue the nature of family fun makes the IQ of the movies seem more and more naive. , Not all children’s movies about kindness and love can capture the hearts of children. Even in the hearts of children, kindness and love have become a preached content, and the fun and temptation that existed have disappeared. Although DreamWorks, which clings to this creed and refuses to let go, although the original intention is good, the lack of fresh and interesting storytelling makes one film not as good as one.
