plot is very rough, with the flavor of Grimm's fairy tales, and a bit of the shadow of the Wizard of Oz. It is not tepid, and does not have enough shocking performance.
Sophie and Hal's relationship development is a bit unnatural. The character image is also very similar. The old Sophie is very similar to Granny Tang, and the rubber man of the Wild Witch is reminiscent of the black bugs on the evil god in Mononoke Mononoke, especially Hal. The image is too chaotic, with golden hair and golden negative ions. Hair version, there are red hair version after failing to dye hair, there is slippery dark green hair version, there is black hair version as it is, and the exaggerated half-orc version (birdman version to be exact)...
Howl's dubbing It was Takuya Kimura! Some people say that Kimura's dubbing is a major flaw in the film, but I don't think that if I didn't watch the voice actors, I would never have imagined that Kimura had such a professional level.
The music is still in charge of Hayao Miyazaki's gold medal partner Joe Hisaishi. Like previous films, it matches the scene very well. What impressed me most was that at the beginning, Hal flew in the air with Sophie. The waltz of the ensemble was light and comfortable, which made people feel like flying.
The production of the picture is always gorgeous, the colorful streets, Howl's bedroom, the golden hall and garden of the palace and so on.
By the way, reprint the background of this story.
"Howl's Moving Castle" (Howl's Moving Castle). This work is adapted from British science fiction writer Diana Wynne Jones. She is one of many excellent science fiction writers in the UK. She has written more than 30 novels so far. Her works are suitable for all ages and she has won awards all over the world. Diana, who is now nearly old, lives in Bristol with her husband, an English professor at the University of Bristol. They have three sons and two granddaughters.
Diana Wynne Jones was born in 1934 in Thaxted, a small town in Essex, England. Since she was 8 years old, she has determined to become a writer. From the time she can remember the most attractive legends about witches, monsters, etc., she always loves to tell stories. When the family moved to an unnamed town in Essex, because there were no books at all, the adults were engaged in hand-knitting and pottery, so she began to write fairy tales. She wrote some huge and magnificent adventure stories and read them to her sisters, but then she was forced to stop writing because of the reasons for entering a higher school. She studied Greek and philosophy under the guidance of a local philosopher, and finally she entered Oxford University. After that, Diana was not able to start writing again until she became a mother, when she was 38 years old. After years of hard work, she won the approval of the publisher and published her debut work. Her Chrestomanci series are the most popular works and have quite a lot of loyal readers among young people.
