This movie has no shortcomings, but it lacks the soul.

If you feel bad after watching the movie, then you can continue watching.

Before we watched it, the promotional information we received was produced by the original crew of "Dream Pursuit". But after careful comparison, I found that the director and the screenwriter are completely different. The production of the original team probably means the original production team. The directors and screenwriters are completely different teams.

Fortunately, the musicality of this film has the continuation of "Dream Hunting Travel Notes", or even stronger.

If you don't have a deep understanding of music, it's hard to have the courage to make a movie about musicians chasing their dreams. I have to say that the director's use of music is top-notch, the selection of dubbing is also top-notch (no. 22 can instantly switch between five or six kinds of sounds), and the ambient sound and texture of various movies are also top-notch.

In the first half of the movie, I was thinking, if a movie wants to do well, it must have something special , and the sound is what makes this movie outstanding .

But what I didn't expect was that after watching the whole film, the strongest part did not do the best, and the place that should have the soul the most, lacked the soul.

To put it simply, Pixar's technology has reached its peak, and the script creation is also quite innovative. However, the emotional resonance has not been the best, and it is this tone that is worse.

Think about "Dream Travel", is that song "Remember Me" unforgettable?

Think "Frozen," I get goosebumps every time I hear "Let It Go."

When the most exciting part of the picture is superimposed with emotional resonance points, and when the theme song chorus sets off a climax, the audio-visual feast of a movie has reached its extreme. Maybe many years later, it is difficult for you to revisit the movies you have seen in the past. But when the theme song plays in a certain place and at a certain moment, the emotional memory floods in an instant, and those images that seem to have long been forgotten are remixed with their own experiences and come to your eyes.

Movies where music is a forte, without exception, have such a soul.

It's a pity, as a good film, "Spiritual Journey" has almost no shortcomings, because it did not do well in this point, and it lost its soul.

Other than that, this movie is full of highlights.

The strange painting style with cool tones in the soul state, the description of the environment that is realistic to beyond reality, the favorite cat owner of cat lovers, delicate movement training, and full of emotional details. The film takes us to talk about our dreams and touch our souls, and also brings out countless shining characters.

The lines that the captain always goes down with are a lot like Captain Jack from Pirates of the Caribbean.

In the film , spark is a very important point, but it is not the usual meaning of Mars, it should express the meaning of passion, which gave me another knowledge point, which is a scumbag of English.

Reminiscent of the cat bus in Totoro

Finally, what is interesting is that originally the male protagonist and No. 22 were always watching North America, but when No. 22 went to Earth, it seemed that they were going to China.

Overall, a score of 8.5 can be scored.

Soul quotes

  • Joe: You ready?

    22: Huh?

    Joe: To come live.

    22: ...I'm scared, Joe. I'm not good enough. And anyway, I... I never got my spark.

    Joe: Yes, you did. Your spark isn't your purpose. That last box fills in when you're ready to come live. And the thing is, you're pretty great at jazzing.

  • 22: [in Joe's body] Like my mentor George Orwell used to say, State sponsored education is like the rattling of a stick inside a swill bucket.
