Do you like an ordinary stone in a beautiful gift box?

The appearance of "Your Name" made the name of Makoto Shinkai be given high hopes like the second Hayao Miyazaki, so "Weathering With You" set a new box office record in Japan, which also made me mention it before watching it. strong interest. It turns out that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment. After reading it, I think this work should become a huge consumption of the signboard of "Xin Haicheng". The movie screen inherits the consistent exquisite style of Makoto Shinkai animation, so beautiful that a random screenshot can be used by many people as a screensaver. But is it enough that animation only needs to be beautiful? This is like giving you a beautiful gift box. You must be very happy when you first got it, but when you can't wait to open the gift box and find that it is just a small stone that can be picked up everywhere on the roadside, I believe the disappointment caused by this huge drop is more than Straight to you a stone is heavier. "Weathering With You" gave me such a strong sense of disappointment. The story is very simple and can be explained in one sentence: a boy falls in love with a girl, the girl disappears for some reason, and the boy saves the girl. Such a vulgar and unsurprising plot, but the director insisted on making it as trivial as a TV series, repeating trivial things like eating out and taking out the trash in daily life to fill the length of the film. The most important thing is that I finally waited until the climax of the story, thinking it would be a little more exciting, but the boy just flew to the girl's side, and he didn't need to fight against any natural force that blocked them. Pulling the girl to the next jump, the rescue will be done. It worked. Such a so-called climax makes the entire film, which is already poor in storytelling, completely lukewarm and boring. It is no wonder that someone fell asleep in the cinema, and my eyelids have been fighting sleepy bugs. Maybe Xin Haicheng can try to find a good novel or find a good screenwriter, and just concentrate on being a director. Now such a person has all the work of director and screenwriter, and it is inevitable that he will lose his mind and be powerless.

    I'm confused and can't comment on this story. But the first feeling is envy. Anyone who ran away from home can meet a beautiful girl with double ponytails and a big sister nicebody. The beautiful girl also comes with a younger brother who knows how to wear women’s clothes. What’s more, there are even cats by the way... Why didn’t I run away from home? Good things, get angry.

    The text is terrible, the content is poor, and it lacks the necessary drama. However, I think the significance of Xin Haicheng animation has exceeded the so-called light sci-fi, small fresh, young and young love. The point is who you go to see this movie with. If you have a girl like Sanye or Yang Cai by your side, and go through the rain, rain and snow in the movie with her, that's the meaning of the movie.
