I don't know who started it first. Anyway, the awkward dance dance at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy 1 is impressive, and the golden songs in the series are even more addicting. Then when it came to Despicable Me 3, I simply let the fighting dance instead of the battle. The beat-and-drum action clips in Baby Driver are Edgar Wright's hallmarks. The most terrible thing is Thor 3. The Divine Comedy of Shaking Legs makes the audience in the theater unable to sit still, and twists to the music every minute. In recent years, there have been many movies that have gone down this evil road, and the music has gradually become larger than the content of the film itself, and this Hotel Elf 3 can be regarded as the end of this road.

This movie has also become a MV collection and a big mix of songs. It relies on music to inspire emotions and connect the plot. The final battle turned out to be a DJ BATTLE. The idea itself is great, and the confrontation between dance hall songs and positive energy songs can create a strong sense of contrast, which brings strong magic and entertainment, especially the final winner is the dance music that is known as the most brainwashing in the world, making the film suddenly There is a sense of sight in Indian musicals. But this does not mean that we must give up control of other aspects of creativity for the sake of the highlights of the song. Hotel Hotel 3 has taken a big step in the direction of a bad film on the basis of the previous work.

This sequel, however, is a must. Looking at the three works together, the topics of the film are in the same line, forming a closed loop, which brings together the broken things of the old sesame and rotten millet in the family. The first is the theme of meeting the father-in-law, and it also talks about interracial love and marriage. The second part is Home Alone, how the lovely grandson plays with the whole big family. The third part turns to focus on the father, how the father who has lost his wife for a long time gets out of the psychological shadow to meet the new relationship, how to face the only daughter, how the only daughter accepts the new mother and the new siblings that may appear in the future. The biggest role of Hotel Elf 3 is to wrap up the series of topics and put an end to it.

Unfortunately, this film essentially brings the topic back to interracial love, but there is a problem with the entry point. The film narrows the racial confrontation to the confrontation between two families, that is, the contradiction between the Van Helsing family and the Dracula family. The love topic extended from this is a story of Liang Shanbo and Juliet, Romeo and Zhu Yingtai. Even in the cartoon, The Lion King 2 told the same story many years ago. So the plot of this movie is really boring. Moreover, in order to establish Dracula's protagonist status, the daughter and son-in-law of the protagonist in the first film were forcibly made into a face. Most of the time, in addition to being angry and upset with her daughter, it is because of a state of dementia, and other supporting roles have more playing time. Therefore, the film seems a bit confusing, especially in the first half, with a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and it is unclear what to say.

The downward trend of this series is really unstoppable. The second part is enough to make people forget it, and this film is even more memorable. In the end, there are really only golden songs left, and they are almost in the left ear and out in the right ear.
