There are a lot of questions to say. After reading it, I feel that the superficial effort has been done enough, the story is very rough, and there are many loopholes. 1. On the whole, we can indeed see a lot of childhood elements of the post-80s and post-90s in the film. From the appearance, many scenes are in line with the background, but the character behavior and the narrative method of the story are very American. I read a comment that told an old-fashioned American story under the skin of a Chinese background, I think this comment is very reasonable.
2. The biggest doubt in this film: The old man said that the male protagonist gave him the teapot because he was kind and pure, but the performance of the male protagonist in the whole film was ordinary from beginning to end, even lower than ordinary. In the first hour of the plot, the male protagonist has been lying to his "best friend" and lying to his mother. The old man's statement is completely contradictory, and it is also where I think this movie hits me in the face. And by the end of the film, the male protagonist's thoughts did grow, but he didn't show anything special about his personality.
Compared with before, it is better to assume that the male protagonist picked up this teapot by chance, or got this teapot because of doing something good, and then grew up after a series of experiences.
3. If the male protagonist is kind and simple and treats the female protagonist as a true friend, then he can take two seconds to tell her who he is when the two meet for the first time. After the first reunion, the male protagonist was very disappointed. He told Shenlong that the female protagonist could not even recognize him, so he had doubts in his heart, which is why he tried to tell the truth to the female protagonist several times later, but he stammered and was suddenly attacked. Interrupted by an event. Please, this logic can't hold up at all. A friend who was separated during elementary school, hadn’t been in contact for ten years and didn’t see each other, and one day when he grew up, he appeared in front of you without warning or warning.
4. There are too many gags, which makes the plot procrastinate. The content of the first hour can actually be finished in 30-40 minutes. There is so much time to talk nonsense, why don't you spend a few minutes talking about how the heroine's father learned about the secret of this teapot. Since this thing is an artifact, why did everyone in the world know about it, and let him know about it? This is very abrupt in the movie.
5. The heroine shot a lot of advertisements, helped the family company to socialize, etc. This shows that the heroine is not stupid and ignorant of her father's company. In this case, the heroine has countless channels to obtain the news of the bankruptcy of the family company, and her father can't hide it from her.
6. How cerebral palsy does the villain have to have to have a hand that turns gold into anything?
Of course, you can also say that cartoons don't need to be so realistic. It is understandable that there are no new tricks for the old-fashioned story, but this film gives me the feeling that the screenwriter did not think about it seriously at all. The character and performance of the male protagonist is the biggest problem and one that cannot be ignored.
The film wants to tell a truth, but it fails to tell a story that supports this truth.
Personally, I can only give two stars.
