Wishing Dragon

I went to comedy and relax, but after watching the movie, I feel that everything is a double-edged sword. The film has novel and brilliant aspects (the pink dragon is cute, the collision of ancient and modern life, and the martial arts action produced by Jackie Chan is integrated into the animation), but it still cannot stop the screenwriter from forcibly subduing his intelligence, the plot is abrupt and the logic is chaotic.

①First of all, the setting of Shenlong's wish is very mysterious. Like at the end of the movie, Shenlong said that only ten people's wishes can be fulfilled before returning to heaven, which can be regarded as helping others. I want to say, is it possible to grant three wishes for no reason to help others? If this kind of easy and arbitrary wish can be realized with just one mouth, isn't it very unfair that there are so many people in the world who only help ten? The point of "help" is hard to get

②The male protagonist Siqi has a bright spot, he is smart, kind, and innocent, but he is just an ordinary person, and he has a strong aura of the protagonist. It is a bit far-fetched to be given a teapot by an immortal to summon a dragon to trigger a series of stories.

③The father of the heroine Lina is too busy to attend his daughter's birthday party. He is so diligent at work, coupled with the fact that his daughter is soft on the endorsement, and obeys his father's various business arrangements, it is impossible for the company to go bankrupt.

④The last time the dragon appeared was in the Qing Dynasty. The heroine’s father, as the villain’s big boss, knew the secret that the teapot could summon the dragon to make a wish, which is unknown from the film.

⑤ Shenlong fulfills the wishes of ten masters, and thus realizes the true meaning of life, but isn’t human life a process of learning while experiencing? Even if we understand the true meaning of life, what if we don’t understand the meaning first and then live? It's not a life of blunders

⑥The film also involves the deep love between mother and son, sorry I really didn't feel it. In my opinion, the film just reflects the ordinary and warm side of mother and son getting along, how can there be any deep affection. The mother hopes that her son can study hard, and is worried that he will fail in his studies. It is human nature to give him hot meals. On the other hand, Siqi knows that his family is poor and his mother is tired and worried, but as a student, instead of thinking about going to school, he skips classes to work and skip classes for the sake of childhood sweethearts. I feel that I am not doing my job properly.

⑦Isn't it that the male protagonist Siqi is the last master to summon the dragon? When there is still one wish that has not been fulfilled, the villain comes out and steals the teapot. He can even summon the dragon, and all wishes can be fulfilled, my mother Ah, what are you doing (゚o゚) so that at the end of the film, the villain's second child has realized his dream of getting more than 200 dogs, and the small third child has long legs. On the other hand, the villain's kung fu thief's scissor-legged boss is hungry for money. , was buried at the bottom of the sea. But then again, no matter what the wish is, it is the wish that one desires the most, so it is right for the little one to grow taller, but isn't it simple for the boss to want money? What kind of discrimination is this?

Adults feel too unrealistic, and have a good time.
