The style of this manga really blinded my dog's eyes, and I'm really thorough with this form of anime. . . speechless. . . After watching it, I felt like the hero in the film, being blown away by a bullet, and then the bullet pierced my big face with a big brain hole. . . The first half made me burst out laughing, and the second half felt like I was on psychedelics. . . This style of painting should be like a mischievous explosion and carnival in the mind of a common man about sex, life, decadence, self-expression, meaningless imagination, God, etc. Maybe the reality is just the imagination of the human heart, the projection of the mind, maybe not; maybe the future is just the result of our beliefs about the past, maybe not; maybe life is just a mental game, but for those in the game, this chrysanthemum is set up like this Ingenious, (err, wrong, it's a game) so that not only are we not aware that this is a game we set up, but every time we "revolt", our fascination with it increases, and our crazy fascination with the game is reversed Shape us, so we go to shape the game in the game. Finally, in this labyrinth-like world, we searched for an exit in astonishment. After finding a temporary exit, we were completely lost without any suspense. In the film, the male protagonist who has a crush on the female protagonist happens to meet the god in his heart after being killed by the underworld, and wins a second chance. At this time, he can finally face his fear, make a real resistance, and escape from the car chase , and unfortunately fell into the whale's mouth with the heroine and her sister. The life of an old man and a female protagonist who were trapped in the whale's belly for 30 years made the four people re-understand the meaning of life. At this time, the dance of their resurrection from the dead released their long-suppressed nature. The scene of escaping from the whale symbolizes the four people's struggle to get free and get rid of the shackles. The film uses smooth, messy and unrestrained lines to express this struggle, like a flame without gravity, like a huge wave. Fighting Haiyan. In the process of fighting and dancing, the four experienced the freedom of life. In the process, everyone is distracted by a tinge of fear about the reality to come, but all are saved by their companions. Only when everything is forgotten can life be light enough to dance a dance of strength and beauty that transcends death. The ending doesn't matter anymore, as long as your consciousness is still in the game of life, there will never be a winner or loser, because it's just a self-made illusion. Just like the complex fate and relationship of the characters in the film, the play button really starts only when you really make a choice.

    It is a very NB, with unique techniques, unique use of colors, and strong lens control. The sex scene was great, especially the last train, tank, ship, plane, and skyscrapers were great ^^

    Barely pass. Yuasa's imagination is amazing. Not only does the same frame contain the strange style of exquisite and graffiti, but also the scenes and big breasts settings such as ten times of idiot lines in the opening barbecue restaurant and being shot to death are very Japanese-style assholes. The male protagonist's pure love behavior is in the same vein as the later Spring Night. What I like most about Yuasa is that he uses wild and unrestrained methods to reflect the huge enthusiasm in the heart of the introverted boy, which is also a typical Japanese-style blood. The idea of ​​this film is actually very good. The sharp editing with rich information at the beginning and the end, and the male protagonist who has come back from the dead seem to assume that even if time is cruel, it cannot erase the burst of life tension, which is simply inspiring. The narrative intrigue doesn't know if it echoes David Fincher's film of the same name. But the main story of this film is the experience of the protagonist and his party after they fell into the whale's belly. Compared with the whimsy and whimsy of the first half hour, this psychological process of despair-progress is too rigid and inefficient, and appears at the beginning and end of the film. Those fleeting pieces of information have not been connected with the backbone to form a complete story. Is the script a half-finished product?
