Mamoru Hosoda's second child movie makes me not want to have a second child

It took 3 years to produce this work, which is magical like the previous ones (the monster of the son of the monster, the werewolf of the son of the wolf), and also integrates the elements of the family (the family fetters of the summer battle, the son of the wolf. mother and child). Put all the points in his works all the time, and then what? As a result, people have to sigh about fried rice, or is Jiang Lang's talent exhausted?

Since the girl who traveled through time and space began to like Mamoru Hosoda, the graduate thesis also wrote a comparison of the styles of his and Makoto Shinkai's works, thinking that the two are representative animation directors of the new generation. However, it seems that the future of the future, we have to ask ourselves. It seems that the style of the work has been standing still? Not breaking new heights.

On the screen, the soft and glutinous character design is one of the styles of Hosoda Mamoru, and I will not comment; on the dubbing, the protagonist's female emphasis is too obvious, not enough for the feeling of a little boy, although the tone and emotion of the dubbing is still in place, but it is not satisfactory; What can I say about the plot? Other comments have also written that the little boy will cross as soon as he acts coquettishly and weeps, and the method of crossing is not clear. Finally, the core question in the film is to review the family history and remember the heart of gratitude. Did the kindness of the past shape us now? So the little boy grew up? The plot is far-fetched, the characters are not full enough, the supporting characters appear abruptly, and there are several changes in the picture that are relatively blunt.

Does the film describe your experience with the second child? Or want to show it to your kids? Want them to know how the family history is formed? So how can the future of the subject be explained? Why not call it the shape of a family? o(╥﹏╥)o

Overall, the climax is not enough, and the film is relatively bland. Maybe some people will say that the ordinary is the truth, and this is life. I? ? ? Don't we go to the cinema to watch exciting adventures, magical encounters or thrilling explorations that are difficult to experience in life? In the future, I want to sleep... After watching it, I feel...? ? ? finished? ? ? Maybe it's because I don't have kids...

The above is purely my personal opinion, if there is any objection, please feel free.
