Hello everyone, I'm Meng Meng, who is talking about movies with you.
Makoto Shinkai's film Weathering With You was officially released on the mainland yesterday.
Since his last movie "Your Name. "It has been three years.
After waiting so long, I can't help but sigh.
Finally got a new wallpaper.
Just talk about the movie.
The story of the film can be divided into two parts.
The first part tells that Hodaka, a high school student, ran away from home, wandered in Tokyo, and accidentally met a girl named Haruna who could manipulate the weather. In the rainy Tokyo, they accepted the entrustment to make money by virtue of the name of "clean girl", and they lived strong in the cold city without their family to rely on.
The second part talks about the crisis of separation between Hodaka and Hina due to the fate of "Haruna" and the intervention of the police.
Why is a movie divided into two parts to introduce the plot?
Because I saw two Shinkai Makotos.
The first half of the movie is the familiar Shinkai Makoto.
He uses the exquisite picture quality, the usual urban vision, and the common elements such as stairs, rainbows, railways, and sky to construct a city full of texture and persuasion.
He also used fast editing, beautiful bgm, and prose-style narrative methods to skillfully build a different world, slowly showing the stories of the hero and heroine to the audience.
However, the second half of the movie is about a strange Shinkai Makoto.
In order to show the dramatic conflict, he set up a number of complex bridges.
For example, Hodaka, who was investigated by the police for being involved in a gun;
For example, Yang Cai disappeared because of the abnormal weather;
The story is interspersed with different stories of Hina's younger brother, Hodaka's boss, and colleagues.
It can be seen that Makoto Shinkai, who has been criticized in terms of script, is working hard to improve.
He even got out of his comfort zone, risky swapping prose for narrative in the second half.
However, he overestimated his ability.
Problems such as the disjointed rhythm before and after the movie, the excessive force in the characterization, and the fast and hasty ending of the movie have all become the direct reasons for the continuous low rating of this movie.
The use of a lot of CG in the movie also seems to announce the compromise of the wallpaper madman to commercialization.
It can only be said that this attempt was rather unsuccessful.
Although everyone said that the familiar Xin Haicheng is more hypocritical, but I still like him very much.
However, this strange Xin Haicheng, I really do not like it.
