The first is that the slots in the setting are full. The basic setting of humans who can speak English dinosaurs does not say anything, such as the herbivorous dinosaurs that have developed to start farming and the carnivorous dragons that have begun to raise animals? For example, how many fierce Tyrannosaurus rex saw a brontosaurus small fresh meat and did not want to try it, but kindly taught it the principles of life? And the Tyrannosaurus rex father described his own experience and mentioned somewhere that "the temperature has almost reached 100 degrees"? (Unexpectedly, the brains are as small as the Tyrannosaurus rex generation has already done some research on numbers and thermodynamics...) And what the hell is the punk raptor. . .
Secondly, the story is also very old-fashioned. A cowardly and timid male protagonist is bound to cheat and embark on a journey to find courage and love, and finally become the story of a mature man. On the road, there are black-hearted villains framed, and there are enthusiastic, kind people who help. In the end, Arlo pressed his footprints in the barn a little bit abruptly, feeling that he hadn't done anything yet. He had neither harvested corn nor repelled foreign enemies, so he was recognized by his family. Their elder brothers are tired of harvesting at home, okay? It's not as high as his handprints.
Some small details about prehistoric animals are quite interesting, such as cobras and giant insects that have not degenerated their forelimbs. The firefly clips also make people feel warm and cute. The natural scenery of the mountains, rivers and grasslands is very beautiful. The scene of eating psychedelic mushrooms is the director, right?
In short, it is a big gimmick, but weak performance, suitable for children to watch. For similar prehistoric subjects, the performance of crazy primitives is better.
Take a look at Pixar's next few works:
Film title Release date Director
Finding Nemo 2 June 17, 2016 Andrew Stanton
Motorsport 3 June 16, 2017 John Lassart
Toy Story 4 June 15, 2018 John Razat
The Incredibles 2 June 21, 2019 Brad Bird
can't help but worry a little bit. With the sequel to Pixar in 2020, will it still be the same?
