I see a lot of people saying that this is left-wing, or even extreme left, probably because of our past experiences, so some people don't like this kind of tone. However, I don't think so.
First of all, my father's concept is very classical anarchism, refusing to survive within the system, and paying attention to self-sufficiency. This is the opposite of extreme left.
In an anarchist environment, children have the freedom to choose their values, and there is no role for the father to replace the system, instilling another kind of instillation in them, the so-called strong patriarchal family. So whether Trotskyists, Maoists, or Pol Pot are the result of children's free choice.
However, why the few directors I have listed are all left-wing ideas? It is obvious that a family living on the fringes of the American system and system will definitely choose to go left to oppose the system and system, just like the public in China. Few of us have the same reasoning on the left or the extreme left.
Second, in terms of education. Some people will criticize these children for not even knowing Nike (in fact, they do, and he is talking about the origin of the names of those shoes), which shows that they cannot integrate into society, and their education is a failure.
Unfortunately, I don't think children who are addicted to mobile phones and the Internet are integrated into society and enjoy a successful education.
This kind of thing can only be said to be an optional consumer awareness. There are still many intellectual families in the United States, who do not have TVs at home. There must be poor people in the world who have never seen TVs in their entire lives. However, can we use the middle and most consumer goods to define the success of education?
As for integration into society. Whether a person can integrate into society depends on survival on the one hand, that is, whether he has the ability to engage in a job; on the other hand, whether he can communicate with other social people.
People with such an academic background and critical thinking will definitely not have a problem finding a job. As for communication, intellectuals don't have to have a common topic with couch potatoes and mobile phone bow-heads. Each type of person has its own circle. Although Europe and the United States are weak, many NGOs are essentially anarchy and left-wing circles.
Finally, back to movies. The choreographer is a villain actor I know very well who has filmed several seasons of "silicon valley", and he's not quite the same as Seth Rogen's comedians who also write and direct.
Although their works are essentially anarchic, Seth Rogen relies on rhythm and language taste (bad taste), and the director of this film is more of a musical angle. "Captain Fantastic" cannot be regarded as a road movie in terms of story, because a lot of space actually describes the family life of this special family.
From a seemingly happy anarchist family (I am more disgusted that many people say it is utopia, the film utopia and dystopia of this era have been abused, and utopia itself does not represent any idea, so it is an adjective that has no meaning), Knowing the bad news, they decided to return to society to fight for their power, but they were frustrated, changed and compromised by reality.
Having said that, it feels like "the first drop of blood". I've forgotten if the final Rambo was also altered and compromised by reality (as if not, if it was, there shouldn't be a sequel).
It’s not good to look at the story in this way, and there are all kinds of problems with the characters. Apart from the fact that there are too many children and too many repetitions, and the daughters’ characters and values have no sense of existence, the big problem is what kind of person the child is, because her Depression and mental breakdown, many of her lines do not know whether they are the embodiment of her true thoughts, maybe the philosopher king in the latter paragraph, but it is not enough and not strong enough. I believe this character is definitely not another father in this family, his clone or something. In addition to education, I think parenting is also an important component of the family.
All in all, this is a movie whose concept is bigger than the work itself.
