Don't compare Miyazaki, not everyone likes Miyazaki.

After three years, another theatrical version, the theme of family love as always, is produced at a high level as always. The protagonist as a child is surprisingly not annoying, although he is a child, and Xiong Che is rude and clumsy, but also endearing. The two lonely people are together, filling each other's loneliness. The story of two people growing up together is really touching. Although many people say that Mamoru Hosoda can become Hayao Miyazaki's successor, but I think the styles of the two are completely different. Mamoru Hosoda's works are more entertaining, looking relaxed and happy, and sometimes moved. And Hayao Miyazaki's work... always makes me sleepy. Hosoda Mori doesn't have to be someone's successor, he's already good enough, there's no need to borrow someone's name, he's also an excellent animation director.

    First of all, the unparalleled feeling of enjoyment while watching the movie once again proved how much I prefer animated movies; secondly, after [Miyazaki Hayao], the Japanese 2D animation supervisor who is most in my heart is [Hosoda Mori]; although the delicacy of his characters The beauty and illusion of Hehuajing is not as good as that of Ghibli's works, but it can form its own unique style, coupled with the passionate and positive energy of the fantasy story, I don't think it's hard to like it! -2014.12.16-2016.02.26

    It's so commercial, completely Hollywood, and the script is a bit stupid. The script is in the right direction in terms of structure and details, but the effect has not been brought out. It still lacks imagination and dramatic tension. The story is peaceful, most of the time. The audience stepped forward.

The Boy and the Beast quotes

  • Kaede: Everyone of us carries that darkness equally. Ren carries it, and so do I. But I'm still struggling as hard as I can, even now. That's why there's no way Ren can lose to you who were so easily swallowed by the darkness. There's no way we're going to lose!

  • Kumatetsu: Kyuta thinks he can stand on his own two feet already, but really he still needs someone to help him. I may be small-time chump, but I'm still gonna help him. I'll make up for what's missing inside his heart. That's the one thing this small-timer can still do!
