Thriller and Warmth

I think it is a very good film, with tears and laughter. What I like most about him is that in the stories she constructed, there is no absolute evil, and there is no absolute wrong, which is very consistent with reality, because the world is not black and white, but more of a gray area .
Let's start with a joke. Originally, I thought it was a horror movie, but the slightly cute zombies in vulnerable groups, as well as the endless spit jokes and divine twists, cast a warm color, which made me laugh until my stomach hurts.
But this movie is extremely terrifying. The madness and cruelty of the townspeople when they besieged the town hall made them look more like zombies; while the previous people, fearing things they didn't know, executed a small child just because of fear and fear. Girl, at that time, the interests of most human beings = justice. From the perspective of today's people, it can not but be said to be cruel; in the end, the protagonist finally awakened the little girl who was resentful with love and warmth, which also made people ponder.
PS: In the end, Neil's brother said that he had a boyfriend, which deeply touched my heart as a rotten girl! ! !

    It's a bit caoraline, but it's too preachy, the plot is too patchwork, the witch at the end is really unsatisfactory, but the end credits are the best, completely 70's and 80's horror movie style!

    I really liked the first half, the graphics and character settings are very good. The back starts to go downhill, top-heavy!

ParaNorman quotes

  • Aggie: Aggie... My name was Aggie... I - I remember... My mommy brought me here once. We sat under the tree and she told me stories. They all had happy endings. Then those horrible men came and took me away and I never saw her again!

    Norman Babcock: Sometimes when people get scared, they say and do terrible things. I think you got so scared that you forgot who you are. But I don't think you're a witch. Not really.

    Aggie: You don't?

    Norman Babcock: I think you're just a little kid with a really special gift who only ever wanted people to understand her. So we're not all that different at all.

    Aggie: But what about the people who hurt you? Don't you ever want to make them suffer?

    Norman Babcock: Well, yeah, but what good would that do? You think just because there's bad people that there's no good ones either? I thought the same thing for a while. But there's always someone out there for you. Somewhere.

    Aggie: I just want my mommy.

    Norman Babcock: I'm sorry, Aggie. She's gone.

    Aggie: That story you were telling. How does it end?

    Norman Babcock: I think that's up to you.

    Aggie: Is this where they buried me?

    Norman Babcock: It's a pretty good place to sleep. Then you can be with your mom again.

  • Neil: So what do we do now?

    Norman Babcock: Uhh... I... I - I really don't know.

    Courtney: Yes you do, Norman. You've gotta get to that witch's grave.

    Norman Babcock: But...

    Courtney: But nothing, you listen to me, buster. We didn't turn away when Daleridge High was slaughtering our volleyball team, did we?

    Norman Babcock: Yeah, we did.

    Courtney: No, we didn't. I have cheered the un-cheerable, Norman. And I'm not letting you give up now.
