In the past, whenever I played the squirrel part, I would suddenly jump out of the story, thinking about how you are again, and show me more of the Mammoth and Sabretooth. Because, the squirrel part is a dark line in the plot. When the squirrel is played, it is like the memory part in other movie stories. At this time, the development of the plot will be temporarily stopped. We can't wait to know the next plot, but we have to stop temporarily. , Watching the squirrel die for various kinds of hazelnuts. If you give me a choice, I would rather watch more adventures of the protagonists. However, the squirrel part is as important as the main line.
The squirrel part is an indispensable part of the movie for various purposes. It can alleviate the tension, and it can also portray the crisis that Jise and the others will encounter from the side, and increase the suspense. In the third and fourth parts, he has a more complete story line of his own, which is in the creation of side stories. At the same time, it also uses a more exaggerated and comical method to create the cause of the story and promote the development of the story. It can be seen that the squirrel part has been deeply loved by the audience. Like the ground sage, the mammoth and the saber-toothed tiger, it has become a part of "Ice Age", but it will not steal the focus of the protagonists and complement the main story. But in "Interstellar Collision", Squirrel's status is different. Although he has the same proportions as his predecessors, he has robbed the attention of the main line. This cannot be blamed on the squirrel, only the protagonists' touch power has been weakened.
In "Interstellar Collision", the roles of Minase, Mammoth and Sabre-toothed Tiger are much weaker. One big reason is that there are too many other characters, sharing their importance. In the movie, they also embarked on an adventure with them, including an old ground set, three mammoths, a female saber-toothed tiger, and three opossums. Their team is too large. Compared with the first work, their three animals and a child feel a lot more refreshing, and the details and inner drama also have more space for them to play. Going back to "Interstellar Collision", their difficulties on the journey have not enough space to describe all the characters, so that there are characters in different difficulties. Come out and make a contribution to completely apportion the importance of the protagonists. Also in this movie, I think the squirrels are much better than their huge team. His purpose is always only one, and all kinds of misfortune will always follow him, creating a joke that is both sympathetic and pleasing.
On the whole, the reason why "Interstellar Collision" makes the audience feel worse than before is because it has lost the wonderful points that it used to make the audience pay for it. Minase, mammoth, saber-toothed tiger and squirrel are the four important characters in the movie. In this work, the interaction of the protagonists is missing, and there are not many details to portray them. Like other characters, they seem to have become ordinary characters, losing their light among a bunch of stars. Without preparation, the plot of the story appears to be rigid, and the audience will not feel the urgency of the protagonists, because they have not become the focus of the audience's attention. The film tells stories for the sake of storytelling.
Although the "Ice Age" series of movies are going downhill, but the feelings remain the same, it has given me too many surprises. I just hope that this movie can do better.
