August's films are a carnival of domestic films, but quantity doesn't mean quality. There is nothing in the long list that deserves special attention. Yes, I mean "Notes on Tomb Raiders", "Xia Youqiao Mu Ya's Hope to Heaven", "My Best Friend's Wedding" and the like.
So if the money is only enough to buy a movie ticket, there is no doubt that it should be reserved for this one.
We have released a fat fish and begonia in twelve years, and Hollywood can release two cartoons about animals in one year, and they are both good-looking. This is a very sad and happy thing.
Although "Zootopia" is undoubtedly still the commanding height of this year's cartoon, "The Secret of Pets" can also afford the words "a worthwhile trip".
The story is about a group of humans living in an apartment building in New York. Of course it doesn't matter, what matters is that each of them has a pet. The heroine has a puppy Mike, and the other neighbors have their own cats, dogs, birds, and even hamsters...
The shapes of these animals are all from pets in life. If you know it, you can recognize them all at a glance. No stress!
The protagonist Mike is a flat-haired fox terrier↓
His roommate, the Newfoundland dog Duke, who fell in love with and killed each other↓
The real female protagonist of the film, the Pomeranian Snowball↓
Eating fat Russian blue The cat is also a blue cat ↓
beautiful budgerigar
A dachshund with strong malleability ↓
A pug dog who is always stupid ↓
stray cat bully naturally wants to be recognized as ugly and cute The sphinx cat is ↓
director said that the creative concept of this film stems from a question: what do pets do at home after the owner goes out?
Seriously, what else can you do? All dog owners, like me, know that guy has a simple and...full day.
The dog smell on the bed indicates that he once sprinkled some wild on the quilt, the toilet paper at the head of the bed indicates that he once enjoyed himself, and the mess of dog food indicates that he still can't accept the fact that there is no extra meal today, scratched rubbish The bag was his last nostalgia for the apple core I threw last night, and the pool of urine at the door was her cry of despair.
In the movie, these guys did not restrain themselves. After the master went out, they each showed their magical powers.
The dachshund makes good use of the mixer, and massage is a high-level enjoyment; the pug and the squirrel outside the window can't get along, and they are staring at each other all day; before the owner leaves, the VIP listens to the song very elegantly, and the owner will choose a disco high song after the owner leaves. ; Do cats open refrigerators? The answer is yes. And she will eat
enough to eat by herself. Although they are all cartoons about animal adventures, this film has completely different creative ideas from "Zootopia", and the viewing experience is also completely different. The director of the film said he did not want to create highly anthropomorphic animal characters, or animals that walked upright.
We are already too familiar with anthropomorphic animal characters. After watching Crazy Zoo, my biggest impression is, God, I really want to travel the world with that fox!
But "The Secret Life of Pets" reminds me of the dog at home who only eats and sleeps stupidly and the uncommunicative birds I picked up downstairs as a child.
This time I can tell everyone calmly: none of these protagonists is a smart 'person'!
They are all silly, yes, silly!
How stupid are you? Silly enough to be realistic, so silly that you can think of any dog, cat, or bird you know.
Dogs never know what humans do when they go out every day. They will squat at the door for a long time until they are sure that you are really leaving↓
Cats don’t care what you are doing when you go out, they just dismiss greasy farewells↓
And the spiritual world of birds, maybe you will never Unreachable↓
The animation's action is very focused on describing animal habits, and these details will make pet lovers feel familiar everywhere. The dog's enthusiasm for the game of chasing the ball, the cat's fascination with the laser pointer is high, and the shameless greeting between the dogs↓, no problem, the dogs think it is completely no problem!
And when you pick up the second big dog, the frightened cowardice ↓ of the original puppy at home is also depicted in detail from the posture of the hind legs,
aggrieved expression is seen almost every day Arrived, but will not change after scolding ↓
new dog competes with the original dog, fights, and finally ends with the puppy turning his belly and admitting defeat. Such scenes can be shown one by one in the movie. I can't fault this detail.
As the two dogs end up on the streets, the stray animals they encounter begin to lead things on an extraordinary journey. It's a bit old-fashioned, it's a buddy camaraderie vs. "going home" themed story, but it's hilarious.
First, the puppy Mike and the new stray dog roommate Duke were living on the streets. The two fought against street bullies in the stray animal base camp, and
were later captured by a more powerful enemy "stray dog culling team". In order to return home, the pair The quarrelsome good partners began to flee together. On the other hand, the little Pomeranian Snowball, who has a crush on Mike, organizes pet friends at home to embark on a journey to rescue their sweetheart, not only to ask the party godfather of the dog world for help↓ (Yes, the party godfather is a disabled Basset dog, the owner Always not at home so he became the king of the dog world)
Even included a cool red-tailed buzzard as a helper.
This kind of story is the adventures of a good friend who will never get bored after reading it a hundred times, and gain a friendship by the way. You can say it is old-fashioned, but will you not eat the contrast of Bailing?
Poor little white rabbit or something, turning his face is a violent street bully + crazy careerist; don't you want to know what pets are playing at home parties? Cute kitten darts, cool toilet and face wash! !
This is the kind of movie you've always dreamed of during your summer vacation. You're cute, cute, and you roll all over the place, and the plot is lively and lively for a second, even if it doesn't explore issues as in-depth as "Zootopia", even if
Illumination produces The animation script is not as deep and powerful as Disney's spiritual core, even if the story turns are rather blunt, but it is cheap and abundant, a movie ticket will send you a lot of cute things, a lot, a lot of !
Moreover, there is also a big bowl of Minion short films that come with the patch.
So, in this suffocating August, I can't think of any reason not to watch it.
