The elements of the film are very rich. There is music, dancing, football, environmental protection, love, the beautiful Amazon forest, and the bustling metropolis Rio de Janeiro. In terms of ideological content, there are ornithologists' spirit of public welfare to protect nature, the greed and ferocity of people who illegally deforest forests, and the conflicts of life and thinking between cities and villages, and so on. Colorful vegetable salads, cleverly paired together, meet the needs of different audiences.
There are three things that impress me the most about this piece. First, there are many singing and dancing scenes. The style of the film is a bit like a youth musical, with grand scenes, rich colors and exquisite shapes, just like the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. There are many music arias in the film, and different music connects several major nodes of the story. One of the film's cues was finding fresh and wild music for the carnival. In general, the music arrangement and singing are still very exciting, and they are more in line with the content of the story and the development of the plot.
Promoting sincere love is the eternal theme of commercial films. Although the main audience of this film is children, since its target audience also includes parents with children and other adults who love animation, the element of love is naturally indispensable. There are mainly two pairs of love in the film, one is a relatively normal love, represented by the protagonists Jewel and Blue. Their love has been tested by lifestyle changes and suspected ex-boyfriends, and finally deepened their relationship. Happy wife, happy life, which the protagonist often talks about, is very resonant, and it is estimated that it will become a buzzword in the near future. The other group of love is more alternative, but the performance is very good, leaving a deep impression on people. The villains Gabi the camouflaged poison dart frog and Nigel the sunflower cockatoo are two races, Gabi falls deeply in love with Nigel across huge ethnic differences, but because Gabi thinks he is poisonous, this love is poisonous , so she did not dare to confess or get close to Nigel. The film expresses this strong poisonous love in a relatively large space, and the expression is very wonderful and in place, leaving a deep impression on people and increasing the depth and level of the film, so it can be called the second highlight of the film.
The strong environmental awareness is undoubtedly the brightest highlight of the film. When it comes to Brazil, football is inseparable, let alone the Amazon River. The Amazon River is the largest river in the world, and the Amazon forest is the most primitive, largest and best preserved tropical rainforest in the world today. It is a tropical miracle, known as the lungs and green heart of the earth. However, like any country and region in the world, it faces a serious environmental crisis. With the continuous increase of human development, the problem of illegal logging in the Amazon forest is extremely prominent. If not protected, this green miracle will disappear from the earth in the near future. All along, various environmental protection activities to protect the Amazon rainforest have never stopped, but the problem has not been solved. The film aptly expresses concern about this issue and imagines optimistically, with the assistance of the intervention of the international community (mainly represented by Bruce from the United States, a couple of scholars who study birds), through collaboration with local indigenous peoples , will eventually establish a nature reserve to protect this virgin forest. In this regard, Rio 2 inherits the strong sense of responsibility and American spirit of the United States to save the world from disaster.
But the downside is that the final plot is a bit simple and abrupt. It was expected that after the parrots and loggers fought fiercely, the bad guys would take revenge, and then more human forces would join in, such as the awakening of the government, the concerted efforts of the whole society, etc., but the film stopped abruptly here, parrots and birds The anthropologist soon won. Of course, this may be related to the starting point of the film's main commercial entertainment, but for those who have high expectations for the film, it is still a pity.
