Suddenly I think of "Ice Age", "Madagascar" and the series, the most primitive brutality and imagination are always the elements I can't refuse! The plot is far better than the first one. The emotional rhythm of the bottom-out counterattack and the continuous laughter make the whole film very, very tight! The character setting of the Gollum family basically continues the character of the first episode: Poppy's Shan, the fool's younger brother, and the hidden grandma are still my favorite! However, the three newly added characters obviously lack personality, and they belong to the kind that people don't like very much but don't hate it. The main creator or director must be a person with a full sense of ceremony! Tribute to a lot of movie clips! (One of them is "Pirates of the Caribbean" I don't know if anyone sees it). Then all kinds of "mutated" animals, icicles, giant plants, etc., etc., have always made me think in the direction of science fiction. In fact, the movie still relies on emotions rather than contradictions to drive the plot, and the movie's transition between "hypocritical" and "funny" is amazing! Let me talk about a few points that I don't like: First, the collision between barbarism and civilization is not very obvious. It is better to say that the film shows not barbarism and civilization, but the collision of different classes. The second is that the design of some animals such as spider wolves (or spider erha) and unicorn dolphins makes me dance very much, so cute! It is incompatible with the brutal setting of the entire primitive world. The third is that the script collided a bit with "How to Train Your Dragon", or the story was very ordinary, and it also collided with the second part of "Despicable Me".
