"Speed ​​Snail" tells the story of an ordinary little snail, Turbo, who lives in a vegetable garden. He admires the formula racer Guy Gagné very much, and dreams of experiencing the supreme pleasure brought by speeding. After an accident, Turbo's body has changed. It has the coveted speed ability, just like a snail racing car, and was brought into human society by the same uneasy status quo and dream-seeking spirit tacos, a burrito boy. . After a lot of hard work, he finally got his wish to participate in the Indianapolis 500 race and compete with his idol racer Guy Gagné on the same stage, and overcame various difficulties to win the championship.
The plot of "Speed ​​Snail" continues the style of DreamWorks. It is similar to "Kung Fu Panda" and "Cars". It tells the dream of a small person with a dream, giving people full of positive energy.

However, what I appreciate most is not such movies, but high-IQ movies that are thoughtful and laborious. As "Deadly ID", "Inception", "Prisoner", "V for Vendetta", etc., they are deeply fascinating with their ingenious conception, intriguing plot and unexpected ending.
On the other hand, domestic films are rarely comparable to any of these three categories. Fortunately, domestic production is also progressing, and slowly some movies are also quite flavorful, such as "Gone Bullet". But so far most domestic movies are very impetuous and unnutritious, in case you regret watching them, domestic movies have always been watched first before watching the movie. Ugh. .
Lao Luo's "artisan's heart" is very interesting. If you do everything with a mentality of pursuing perfection and create your own works as works of art, the results will be very different.
Do things like that, and be like that.
In fact, whether it is the spirit of chasing dreams or the heart of craftsmen, it reflects the noble quality of the master who is unwilling to be mediocre and pursues excellence. This kind of personality is worth learning from the world.
No dream is too big, no dreamer is too small.
