The film I watched today is called "God Is Crazy 2". After watching it, I did realize a little "crazy". I think this film focuses on the pursuit, emphasizing the "conflict of three views".
First of all, let’s talk about the world view. The world in the film is set in an African version of paradise with wars outside. The local people are almost isolated from the world and cannot speak the language of the outside world. The narration at the beginning said that the local people have never seen so much water. I think this is unimaginable for outsiders. But when the outsiders entered, they found that the lack of water was not enough, and they could not identify the traces like the natives. And the natives can only walk or ride a bicycle, they can't imagine the miracle of Africa that the pilot said to see in half an hour. It was as if their world seemed to be divided by the wonderful hand of God.
Speaking of values, there is an obvious difference in values at the beginning of the film, that is, the protagonist wonders why the poachers only take useless ivory and not the precious elephant meat at all. I think the local indigenous people must put survival as the first priority. needs, and outsiders have passed through this primitive period, they are satisfied with simple existence to pursue other things.
Later, when I talked about the outlook on life, it was the simplicity of the local people that made me see their goodness: the local indigenous people helped the hero and heroine many times, the heroine rode a bicycle, helped the dehydrated hero cool down and squeeze the water, and led the way for strangers. Save the people from the fire. And this contrasts the evil of the boss as the representative: poaching animals, ignoring the children, and kidnapping everyone for the poaching business.
The film uses the father's pursuit of the child as a clue to connect the hero and heroine's reunion, separation and reunion, the "love and killing" of the two soldiers, the various accidents of the poacher, and the father's free help time and time again. I think whether it is in the past or now very precious. At the end, the boss's destruction of nature, self-rewarding, father and son reunion, family joy, makes me feel that good and evil will be rewarded in the end.
There are a lot of exaggerated actions, lines, and situations in this movie that create a laugh that makes us worry about the child's situation and have some laughter at the same time. There are many close-ups of animals, which let us see the wonders of nature, and I think this kind of humor is better than human beings.
The ending is the standard happy ending, the three overlapping smiley faces touched my heart, the local people showed a kind of primitive kindness, innocence and love of human beings, and these are slowly being hidden with the development of human beings, so there is War, with this kind of "inside and outside Taoyuan" conflict, isn't this a kind of sadness? God is really crazy to let such a world appear in front of us. I think this is also the meaning of the film: we, as human beings, should reflect, reflect on what we have done to nature, and reflect on whether human beings are on the road of evolution and the original intention. away.
