[Author/ Film Critic, Music Critic: Qingyanling]
I watched two movies in one go over the weekend, "Bollywood Robot 2.0" and "Luo Xiaoheiji". The former is from India and will be released in mainland China on September 6. Because it has created a super high box office record in India, it makes people very eager to explore. The latter is the latest national manga, and it will be released on September 7. It is said that it is to take over "Nezha's Devil Child", and many viewers even commented that it looks better than "Nezha", which is naturally full of expectations. .
After watching these two films, I couldn't calm down for a long time. It seems that India and China are two blockbusters that have no connection at all. In fact, there is a very important similarity between the two films, that is, the villains were originally good people, or environmentalism. By. Both films deeply express the human destruction of nature and the concept of environmental protection.
Next, I will tell you in detail how the concept of environmental protection is reflected in these two films. Of course, those who haven’t seen the film should pay attention. The following contains some spoilers.
"Bollywood Robot 2.0" has been climaxing from the very beginning, and the wide-open brain holes in Indian movies are once again breathtaking.
At the beginning of the movie, people in the whole city were suddenly sucked out of their mobile phones, and the whole city fell into panic. Among them, many bridges imply the heavy dependence of modern people on mobile phones, which can be said to be very educational. In the second half of the mystery, it turned out that it was an environmentalist who begged the government and related units to reduce the radiation of mobile phones several times because of the protection of birds, because many birds have died and become extinct due to the radiation of mobile phones and cell towers in recent years. . But in the face of being rejected again and again, this bird lover was heartbroken. In the face of birds continuing to die on a large scale, after he turned black, he sucked all the mobile phones, attached to himself, and turned into a huge The bird took revenge on those who rejected and deceived him before, and also brutally destroyed the city.
Of course, scientists and robots eventually gradually upgraded their capabilities. The robot "Seventh Brother" with 2.0 and 3.0 capabilities finally defeated the enemy and saved the city.
Seeing this, everyone also understands that this villain was originally to protect birds. He was the kindest person, but he was driven to a dead end step by step. Therefore, how to distinguish between good and evil, "Bollywood Robot 2.0" has taught us a profound lesson. It has also made a good interpretation of the urgency of environmental protection and the harm of mobile phone dependence.
What about the well-received national comic "Luo Xiaoheiji"? Different from the fast pace at the beginning of the film, this film gradually reached its climax in the second half, and the quiet plot in the first half turned out to be a disguise of the "villain".
In the play, Xiao Hei was originally a cat. Because his home was destroyed, he was taken in by the goblin "Wind Breath" when he was wandering. They got along very well together. Humans with mana "Infinite" broke into their lives, and after defeating Wind Breath, Infinite took away Xiao Hei. The Wind Breath gang came to rescue Xiao Hei, but later everyone found out that the Wind Breath was just to get Xiao Hei's super power from beginning to end.
In the second half of the blackening wind, the audience also can't hate it, because he wants to have super powers, but also to protect the residence of the goblins. This city was originally a place where fairies lived together. With the entry of human beings, they could live in peace in the early days, but the human beings in the "evolution", with the destruction of the environment and the intensification of urbanization, the fairies have no place to live. It is for this reason that Wind Breath needs Xiao Hei's super powerful superpower to complete the remodeling of the city, or return.
When Wind Breath was about to achieve its goal, a "miracle" happened. Xiao Hei originally had the super power of two worlds, so he fought and finally defeated Wind Breath together with Infinity.
Although the plot seems to be very reunion, the theme of environmental damage in the play still deeply moved the audience, so everyone can't hate the wind from beginning to end, he is also trying to save his own group. Even the audience will sympathize with him and reflect on the urbanization process of human beings in recent years, and high-rise buildings are being built everywhere. Is it really too "prosperous" and destroying the homes of many living beings?
The environment destroyed by human beings will suffer its own consequences at a certain point in time when it reaches the limit. This is inevitable. In the past many years, many countries and cities have also suffered huge problems due to environmental damage. Therefore, the emphasis on environmental protection has already reached the consensus of all mankind. On the other hand, for other species, the "evolutionary" history of human beings can also be called their bloody demise history. Whether it is the over-exploited natural environment, or the continuous increase of various industrial and plastic wastes, many animals have lost their lives. Have a livable environment.
Scientists use "carrying capacity" (or environmental capacity) to explain our relationship with the environment, which means that land, water, animals and plants can only withstand the impact before their irreversible damage, that is, the ecological environment cannot exceed its carrying capacity. But as far as the current social operation is concerned, many times, people's behavior has actually exceeded this "carrying capacity", but we are not sure when the impact of the destruction will break out. This is also a crisis for human beings themselves. matter. As mentioned in the movies "Bollywood Robot 2.0" and "Luo Xiaoheiji", at a certain stage of serious imbalance, unexpected crises will always break out. It is precisely because the voice of environmental protection in these years is very urgent, so when we watch these two films, it is easy to accept the penetration of the concept of "environmental protection" in the play.
As mentioned earlier, the villains in "Bollywood Robot 2.0" and "Luo Xiaoheiji" are all environmentalists. They turn against humans for the homes of other creatures and become the "villains" in the film. However, the audience obviously can't equate them with "wicked people", because their starting points are all good, after all, they are forced to despair step by step by human beings. Therefore, in many cases, good and evil are actually relative concepts. It is difficult to determine whether a character is good or evil across the board. This is also an important theme that the movie wants to convey to every audience. It can be said to be very attractive. thought deeply.
At the end of this article, of course, I strongly recommend that you watch the two films, "Bollywood Robot 2.0" and "Luo Xiaoheiji". , is obviously something we need to reflect on in this era. And what is valuable is that people often want to relax when watching movies. The line design of these two movies is also very comical. , good and evil stories, showing the true face of people's lives today.
In addition, it seems that today's recommendation has spoiled a lot of the plot, but in fact, this does not affect everyone's viewing of the movie. "Bollywood Robot 2.0" undertakes the first part of "Love of Bollywood Robots". I haven't mentioned the love story in the play, the beauty and skills of female robots. In "Luo Xiaoheiji", there are more details worth exploring, whether it is the master-disciple relationship of the protagonists in the play, or the "friendship cameo" of "Nezha" at the end, it is worth watching and watching again. of. Are you ready to go to the theater to "get educated" and have a good laugh?
