In the first part, Patrick's wife Grace has a big belly, and in the second part, their children can make soy sauce; in the first part, the witch is left in the human world, and in the second part, he becomes a famous magician in Paris. In short, everything is connected.
"The Smurfs 2" is still the story of the Smurfs fighting against Ge Ge Wu. Ge Ge Wu created two gray elves and held the Smurf sister hostage. Father Sapphire led his three children to the human world again. This movie has a new character-Patrick's stepfather, an old man who messed up a lot of things, but did everything for his stepson. From the beginning, Patrick didn’t understand and didn’t accept, to the end he embraced, father and son recognized each other; there are two new elves—grey trick-or-treating elves. At first they were pawns of the gege witch horse, and finally turned into blue, becoming the Smurf’s. One member.
We always criticize domestic cartoons for being too preaching. In fact, foreign cartoons are also very preaching. Most foreign animated films have a great theme, and there are only a few themes over and over again. I have summarized it, and it is nothing more than the following types. Inspirational, such as the "Kung Fu Panda" series; friendship, such as the "Toy Story" series; family affection, such as "Finding Nemo"; adventure, such as the "Madagascar" series, etc. "The Smurfs" is undoubtedly a family series. The Smurfs themselves are a big family with so many and distinctive Smurfs. The first part of the film emphasizes the importance of family, but the second part takes a different path, taking a road of family love without blood relationship.
Patrick has no blood relationship with his stepfather, and the Smurfs, the gray elves and the Smurfs family are not related, but these four people or the elves' biological fathers and stepfathers behave completely differently. Patrick's stepfather cares about Patrick all the time, even if he doesn't understand; the blue sister's stepfather, blue father, also cares about the blue sister all the time, even if she is made by the enemy. Ge Gewu is the creator (biological father) of Smurf Smurf. She was included in the Smurfs, but was collected by Dad Smurf. Ge Gewu wanted to affect Sister Blue with affection, telling her that he was her biological father, and her stepdad was not. Will come to rescue her, but Ge Ge Wu just wants her to say the spell that turns blue; Ge Ge Wu is the creator (biological father) of gray elves, but only uses them as tools. Once they turn blue, they will also be extracted. , And finally forced them to abandon the dark and cast the light. So what this film tells us is that there can be family relationships without blood relationship, the biological father may be bad, and the stepfather may be good. This is indeed very educational in the Western world where the divorce rate remains high.
But the strange thing is that two more Smurfs have been added to the Smurf Village, and there is also a female Smurf, that is to say, from now on, there will be two Smurfs in the Smurf Village at the same time! This is a serious departure from the original work and our usual impression of the Smurfs. According to reasoning, the third part of "The Smurfs" is still the main family card, but it will revolve around these two new Smurfs, especially the new female Smurfs.
In order to revisit the classics, during the eleventh period, I came to watch the "Smurfs" cartoon. After watching a few episodes, I suddenly discovered that "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is too similar to it...
