bunch of people said that this film is bad, almost misled me to miss such a good movie.
Don't mention the plot, scene, music, only the cast. Both 007 and kidman can see that there are actually Gandalf, the princess Eva Green and Earl Dooku. Who would think that so many good actors would come to make a silly children's film?
Beginning of the text:
I saw the poster before I saw it. The bear reminded me of the Queen's mount in Narnia. Points were deducted. Some buddies first saw it and said it was not good-looking, and points were deducted. All of these made me think that the Golden Compass is another movie that tried to cheat the kid out of money by taking advantage of Harry Potter's east wind, but after watching it, I thought I was wrong.
In fact, this movie can be regarded as a children’s version of the Lord of the Rings. The little heroine Lyra does not have strong magic power, a powerful helper (her spirit beast has only helped once in the entire film), and she has no long-standing enemy and pretending to be b. The goal is not to save the world, but to fulfill a promise to a friend ("If you are taken away, I will definitely save you."). To a certain extent, it can be said that she is given a responsibility far beyond her ability like frodo in the Lord of the Rings, and she is also like frodo just by virtue of her kindness, bravery, firmness, and cunningness that frodo does not have, and successfully completed it. For this task. The most exciting scene is the part where Lyra flicks the ice bear king. At the beginning, it is calmer than her waste wood spirit beast, and then uses what I have heard and seen before to lure the ice bear king into the trap. Facing the Ice Bear King’s suspicion, he was also witty to resolve, and the best part was that it also helped her partner, Alcoholic Bear, regain everything. Of course, Lyra's cunning is not invincible, and it was miserable to be tossed by that lady as a doll before. But she was able to detect and resist, and she was quite principled and courageous. In the end, she even retaliated against her.
In addition to the little heroine, one of the things I admire most about the Golden Compass is the relationship between the animals in the film and the little heroine (specifically, there are two kinds of animals, spirit beasts and ice bears). They are not the main pet relationship or the same as in ordinary children's movies. The master-slave relationship is a true partnership.
Let's talk about spirit beasts. Generally, the wizard's servants are set in the western magical world, which is the magician's other eye and the other hand. In this world, the spirit beast is the entity of the soul that everyone has, the partner of the soul. In other words, it is the so-called soul mate. The fighting ability is not strong, and it cannot be too far away from the body (except for witches). Fortunately, the setting is like this, otherwise it is easy to ruin the story and become a Pokemon movie that is better than anyone else. Like the heroine Lyra is still young, her spirit beast hasn't taken shape yet, and it can become a lot of different animals in a hurry. It sounds very bullish, but in fact, it can only change things like kittens and birds, which are usually only smelly. Itachi(?), no help at all. The most powerful thing in the film is the lord's spirit beast. It is something that I don't know if it is a tiger or a lion. When it really fought, it was still dealt with by a few Tatar wolves, which verified the saying that a good tiger can't stand a pack of wolves. Although the spirit beast can't fight to help, it is a partner of the soul. It will never betray, and will always tell the truth, so that people know what they are thinking and what they really want. This attribute makes it unique. Therefore, the dream of his drunk bear’s brother, the King of Ice Bear, is to want a spirit beast of his own, because he killed his father and killed all his brothers, making him lonely and suspicious of all people.
The ice bear is a very proud and noble animal in the film. Fighting is everything to them. It is like "swimming in the sea and breathing air." Humans can't afford them and even want to be their dog legs. As one of the main characters of the film, the alcoholic bear is a representative of the ice bear. The limelight overwhelms the 007 people in the film, only under the little heroine Lyra. The reason why it entered into a contract with Lyra to become a partner is not only because Lyra pointed the armor to save it, but also because Lyra firmly believes that the ice bear is not a decadent waste wood bear that should drink the whiskey that humans give away. Can understand it better and believe it. The scholar died for his confidant, so the alcoholic bear said that he owed Lyra a little favor and loyalty to Lyra until he died or Lyra triumphed. Later, when the drunk bear, because of Lyra’s trust and a little help, revives Xiong Feng from a waste wood bear to a British bear sweeping the army, when the drunk bear faithfully abides by this promise no matter what the situation is, just like lyra is loyal. Who can say that this movie is a third-rate children's movie when he keeps his promise to rescue his friends.
A total of more than 23,000 people in imdb played 6.5. According to the comments, the main reason for ms is that the film does not match the famous original, rather than the quality of the film. In addition, there are a lot of content in the film like the church’s conspiracy of spiritual rule, the mother wants to kill the father, the symbolic meaning of the spirit beast, and the ice bear king whose jaw has been knocked off. Is one of the reasons for being misunderstood.
In the end, believe me, this is not a bad movie, at least hold on until Brother Xiong comes on stage, and you will understand.
