My first reaction after watching this movie is to ask myself, "It’s me who changed. Or is it a Pokémon?"
I still remember that the first time I came into contact with Pokémon was when I was 7 years old. At that time, I was so ignorant that I was attracted by a yellow mouse that could generate electricity. Every time I passed by the roadside stall, I clamored to buy pirated CDs, which caused my mother to persuade and scold her. In the past, I could be beaten and scolded, even without eating or drinking, just to sit in front of the TV and watch one more episode of Pokémon, watch Pishen’s 100,000 volts once more. This is my childhood with Pokémon, the scenes The scene is called feelings.
However, not every feeling can be touched at will, or it is not a scene that is moved out and presented again, which can be called "feelings." The reason why we have feelings for certain things is because of the previous paved, the current feeling, and the subsequent development. For me, the feelings for the movie are a series of stories, not just a scene.
Take the TV version of the little fire dragon for example. I don’t know the abandoned little fire dragon is waiting in the rain for the owner who will not return. Xiaozhi lost a total of two baby balls, but they were all struggling out by the weak little fire dragon at that time. (If it is not abandoned, it should be the baby ball bounced back), at this moment, the camera turns and the sky is covered with dark clouds. This is paved. Next, after accidentally discovering the trainer who abandoned the little fire dragon in the Pokémon Center, Xiaozhi and his team clashed with the trainer for the little fire dragon, and then rushed out to save the little fire dragon despite the heavy rain. Later, Xiaogang's heart The sentence "Come on, little fire dragon, don't let the flame on your tail disappear", every movement, every expression, every line is telling a touching climax. Later, the little fire dragon was willing to become partners with Xiao Zhi and his group to experience repeated hardships and training, until the moment when the abandoned little fire dragon became Xiao Zhi’s strongest fire-breathing dragon, the memory of waiting for the return of the owner in the rain Surge again, this is the feeling. The prerequisite for expressing feelings is to have sincerity first.
In comparison, in the movie version, Xiaozhi and his party are the little fire dragons that were found passing by in the rain, and his trainer, Kloss, appeared immediately. Although they are all classics, they have a certain sense of abruptness, because they are missing. A conflict that was stopped by Miss Joey, without the surging sense of Xiaozhi and his group rushing out to save the abandoned little fire dragon regardless of the heavy rain.
I can see that the production team is willing to present those childhood classics one by one, but I can only say that it is still too greedy for a 90-minute film. The biggest problem with the whole movie is that the rhythm is so fast. In the movie, Xiaozhi has 3 main Pokémon, Pishen, Fire-breathing Dragon, and Bar album, two original characters of the movie need to be shaped, and the main storyline needs to be dealt with, and the whole movie becomes one. "Hodgepodge". The emotions of the audience were taken away immediately before being brought in, and the most disgusting place for me was the scene of consuming Pokémon. Objectively speaking, the special effects and music of the whole movie are really very exciting and great, but there is often a "but". In the whole movie, there are two Pokémon fights or appearances, which are just arranged for evolution, such as the scene where the little fire dragon evolves into a fire dinosaur and the green caterpillar purchases into iron armor pupae and then evolves into a Pakistani album. Really Let me feel that
Pokémon has been consumed. Then the question came. When the Pakistani album was about to leave Xiaozhi, I only felt that his appearance in the whole movie was only a few minutes (including the appearance time of the green caterpillar). The whole feeling was like "because the audience wanted Look, so we arrange two scenes to let the green caterpillars evolve, then we can put the classic scene of leaving the Pakistani album." For a post-90s generation who likes Pokémon, this is really too sloppy. Pakistan album leave that scene, that I want to sit next to me comrades dissolved in tears, said, "He only played five minutes the whole movie!"
Do not be greedy movie, not because in order to present and exhibit, not because Sell your feelings without being sincere.
After that, the plot of the movie really made people a little speechless. Until now, I still don’t know the reason why Lei Gong appeared. It should be because "Ah, my two brothers have shown their faces, I must show up!", and then just After staring at Pishen for 3 seconds, he ran to another studio. I don't know what to say about the other plots. In short, it was just because Feng Wang arranged a 90-minute movie in order to find someone to fight. Although I know that Pokémon’s movie plot is relatively weak, I really can’t accept a movie shot at 2x or 4x speed because there is no sense of substitution at all.
To say that the most eye-catching part of the whole movie is the period when Xiaozhi was hypnotized and returned to reality. At that time, he was no different from a real 10-year-old child. There is no magic in reading, going to class, leaving school, and going home. Baby, a world without Pikachu. The cleverness of that scene is to use virtual reality to see reality. For viewers like me, it is true that childhood without Pokémon is black and white. It reminds me that I also "want to be a Pokémon master" before. For that dream, based on this, I should also say thank you to the director team.
In general, this movie has no plot, and when it comes to feelings, it also lacks a sense of enthusiasm. The biggest failure of this movie is really because it does not have the rhythm of watching the movie, it is difficult for the audience to feel the emotions of the characters themselves (some audiences cry because of the emergence of memories, but objectively speaking, it is not because of the movie. itself). Secondly, I feel that the content and dialogue of this movie are more suitable for children to watch, but it is branded as "reset of the old version". The target audience is not clear. Those who watched the unprinted version of the past. The kid has at least begun to face the changes in his life now. Since you want to sell your feelings, please remember who your audience is. Don’t forget the people who walked with you in order to cater to the current trend, because the people who grew up and became stronger with Pikachu were not only Xiaozhi, Xiaozhi. Gang, Xiaoxia, but also our childhood.
