The reason I watched this movie was because I saw someone recommend it on a blog, so I had high expectations for it, but now it seems that at least half of those expectations were wrong.
It must be admitted that there are still bright spots in this film. For example, the little emperor penguins are so cute! ! ! Like the real loneliness of the protagonist being out of tune with the outside world... But, I still don't like this movie.
First of all, the singing and dancing here is so American, and with the kind of music that fills our lives these days, I don't really see anything particularly creative.
Secondly, as a bean friend said, the animals here are too anthropomorphic. Of course, the characters in animated films must be represented in anthropomorphic ways, but now the situation is that this kind of way has already made me feel a kind of distortion, and it is a very crude, even undisguised distortion, and the dominant player also Be proud of your actions! (I must say, this is a typical American-minded movie!) And whenever I see the penguins sing with their long, pointed mouths, the singing doesn't match the picture. A sense of absurdity full of realism.
Finally, on the subject of the film. After reading the first half, I thought it should be an ending full of tolerance, understanding and warmth. But I didn't expect the protagonist to attract humans! And in the end, all the penguins danced, in order for humans to regard them as research samples and continue to survive! I'm really wondering if I'm wrong, but for me, the film does send a message: to survive, give others what they want! Regardless of right or wrong, this is a very realistic value. It is extremely incompatible with the ultimate value pursued by human beings, and I personally think that it is not suitable to be promoted in literary and artistic works with children as the only audience.
After watching the video, I have to say, this is really a human world! This is really an American world! There are some things we should start thinking about.
