First of all, I advise everyone who hasn't watched this film to take good care of their wallets.
The recently released "Cat and Mouse" has attracted much attention from the beginning of filming. Several generations of people who have grown up watching the old version of the animation have strong feelings for this IP. It can be said that everyone loves flowers and flowers. open. But within a few days of its release, there was a flood of criticism at home and abroad, and the Rotten Tomatoes Index was only a poor 26%. After reading it myself, what I felt was probably perfunctory. Anyway, the IP is strong, so I am not afraid of perfunctory without the box office. Therefore, I want to show how the film's reputation collapsed through a little bit of the fantasy commentary on the world.
First of all, the Tom and Jerry in this film may still be the Tom and Jerry we are familiar with, but this film is not the "Tom and Jerry" we are familiar with.
The success of the old version of "Cat and Mouse" relies on each episode being short and concise without a single frame, and each episode is full of creative ideas. Tom and Jerry's gag can always make people laugh. At most, the film uses the destructive power of Tom and Jerry to promote the development of an irrelevant old story. The script and production are both perfunctory. We all know that this is a pot of sentimental rice, but the director was afraid that the people who ate would not know it. He slammed the refreshing potion of sentiment in the empty pot and threw me up.
Tom and Jerry chase me in the background of the story, mostly using old stalks from the original animation. For example, Tom’s flying cat shape, cats in various forms of liquid, Tom accidentally hit the bulldog Spike, Jerry’s dragged doorway and so on.
When I first saw the accurate reproduction of these classic bridge sections, I was still touched in my heart. But after repeated frying meals, I began to wonder whether the animation production of this film was purely based on the original work. Anyway, the IP is already owned by Warner. Although it is shameless to copy yourself, it is legally risk-free. No wonder the film insists not to 3D Tom and Jerry, after all, 2D animation cutout is so convenient.
This is called, pick your own picture, so that the emoji party has no new pictures to pick.
So we all misunderstood. "Cat and Mouse" has accumulated a large number of old audiences in the 80 years since its inception. What makes this film use is not their feelings, but their forgetfulness.
In order to remind you old comrades, the following is a comparison between the old and the new by the foreign up master mixer show, not afraid of Warner’s threat. It only intercepts a short section of the beginning of the movie, and actually achieves the frame-by-frame synchronization with the old version of the animation . You can feel it based on a few screenshots.
The main story line of Tom and Jerry's cameo in this film is also perfunctory and his mother opened the door to perfunctory-perfunctory to home. Let's break it down.
The real heroine of this film is a super-killer woman.
The film begins to kill the girl and quarrel with her boss and then resign angrily, unlocking her super powers. Her superpower is that wherever she goes, she will open the Jangzhi enchantment, and the people around her will have influences such as being gullible, easy to deceive, and playing cards unreasonably.
Within the enchantment of the heroine descending wisdom, the resume sister who was about to apply for the job was suddenly stolen by the heroine. The hostess used the stolen resume to brighten the front desk, and the front desk promised to admit her as if she had never seen a resume in her life. The human resource management of high-end hotels is really efficient.
In the next interview, the heroine’s Zhi Jiangzhi barrier was too strong, so the event manager transferred the doubt of his identity to Little Goldfish. Our heroine laughed all around, life is like a play, all depends on acting skills, if not enough, we will rely on tearing up resumes.
The scraps of the resume rushed to the general manager like a goddess, who was forced to hire the heroine after being transferred to his wisdom, and praised the heroine's card game rank.
With this operation, the heroine's hands were shattered, and the three views were shattered. Afterwards, she was able to retreat all over, and even transformed into what Lei Feng everyone was boasting about. Lei Feng saw only tears that could not be stopped. . . Some people promote the children’s orientation of this film. With regard to the heroine’s inverted black and white values, I think it’s absolutely unsuitable for children to watch. What's more, "Cat and Mouse" is more of an adult’s memory. This time, parents and friends are advised not to tie up their children. Let's find the feelings that have not been protected by the producer.
After the heroine was hired, the task was to help a couple of Internet celebrities hold a century wedding in a hotel. The event manager really needs the help of young people on this project. After all, he doesn't even know the difference between Instagram and must-have. Come on, ** will reuse you.
This wedding couple is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The bridegroom is a scumbag with a bluff. He just married the widow of the goddess last month, and this time he comes to marry the bride again.
The mouth of the groom, a deceitful ghost, the last second the groom sang to the bride, I only have you without him in my heart, the next second unless he is your dad (Dad, you sound radiant), the essence of the words is to save you /Baoda/Loved.
The life motto of the groom is go big, or go home. So he bought a big cosmic diamond ring for the bride, which is a gemstone that can be seen in space as famous as the Great Wall. He equipped the wedding with elephant mounts and tigers and peacocks. The people who did not know the truth thought that they had entered the Songkran Festival by mistake and had the urge to pour champagne on the director's head.
The movie also spent a lot of pen and ink introducing other roles in the hotel. The hot-tempered chef, the security guard who has already seen through everything, the waiter who is fascinated by ghosts. . . These overwhelming roles are very much in line with the audience's expectations-they have no intersection with Tom and Jerry. Only the heroine is the bridge between Tom and Jerry to the three-dimensional world.
Maybe we were also stunned by the heroine, maybe there is no Tom and Jerry in this film, but the heroine uses exaggerated acting performances to deceive people.
When Tom was hired by the hostess, and then put on the staff hat and arrogantly in the hotel, I thought that he was finally going to stand up as the protagonist. However, goose, the screenwriter gave him a hold when he went up, so you think you don't know you if you wear a cap, you put on the vest and I still know you, so Tom still failed to enter the core of the story.
But isn't there any innovation in the IP of "Cat and Mouse" in this film?
From this point of view, the heroine is indeed a fisherman in the first half of the movie, thinking that this highly competitive position will be very busy. Mo Zeng thought that the main task is to catch mice, and the heroine has little pity for Tom, so she is very scheming to let Tom go. . The hostess just negotiated with Jerry during countless opportunities to win Jerry on the spot, flirted with the bartender, and talked with the bride.
In the end, Tom captured Jerry with a mechanical transmission device developed during home isolation. Jerry said you don’t seem to be stupid. Small mousetraps can’t help me. Can’t I see such a awkward and huge manual mechanism?
Jerry, who was mad at the screenwriter, joined Tom and Spike to vent their anger in the hotel lobby, and used the shadow clone technique and the wind escape animal tornado.
When Tom and Jerry, who had gotten into trouble, thought they had finally inserted the main story line, the screenwriter immediately threw the pot to the event manager, and then sent Tom and Jerry to shoot the New York city travel advertisement.
But the event manager was very wronged. He called Tom and Jerry again, and once again turned the wedding scene upside down. Good noise! Our audience has long wanted to overturn this robbing wedding (╯°Д°)╯ ┻━┻
It can be seen that the screenwriter is also anxious here. He directly arranged the surrealistic plot for private use of Central Park, and even waived the appointment. The wedding preparations were about the screenwriter's psychic. Then the director forced BGM to be sensational and tried to cover up the loopholes in the plot.
But we turn off the BGM to objectively analyze the ending plot. The originally planned wedding fell apart. In the end, the bride could no longer stand the groom (Tom and Jerry: can’t it bear us?), and the groom kept giving her exaggerated surprises if she didn’t listen to her opinions.
Of course, there is no family conflict that can't be solved by a surprise. If there are, then two. So, the groom and the hostess joined forces. When the bride was about to leave New York, he planned a second wedding without telling her, and then lured (Tom and Jerry: this is our scene!) The bride came to the surprise wedding without knowing it. At the scene, the bride was moved and forgave the groom, Happy ending.
Wow, it's not at all inconsistent, and it's not at all face-setting.
All in all, looking at the film, the awkward and awkward plot, the old-fashioned and uninnovative intentions, the powerless and more incredible values, plus the marketing of selling dog meat, really make me unable to find a reason to Amway.
Since the feelings are all perfunctory, it is better to let the feelings make a living.
