If you have time, why don't you read the original book again

As a loyal fan of "The Little Prince", I watched it on the first day it was released in China.
As a result, the higher the expectations, the higher the disappointment.

In the movie theater, I didn't hear many children's laughter (only once or twice), and as a loyal fan, I was not moved to tears.

A cliché story is set, which obliterates the beauty and sadness of the original fairy tale, and that is the most refreshing thing.

The movie is called "The Little Prince", but the protagonist is a little girl (a bit like "Sophie's World"), and the little prince who should be portrayed with a lot of ink is not enough. Even me, who is familiar with the original book, feels that In the movie, when the little prince speaks out those classic sentences, he appears: contrived and blunt! Not impressive at all!


Is it because I have become an adult and have forgotten the previous touch? No, I will still be moved by the original book.


So, if you have time, it is better to read the original book again.

The only advantage: the animation when telling the story of the little prince conveys the style of the original illustrations, a touch of sadness (the artistic conception is here, but the story is not well told, but the one that should be hyped is ignored)

    The freeze-frame part is too gentle, full of fragile beauty, just like the hazy artistic conception of the original book. The 3D part recreates the original work to a certain extent. The comparison between the order and chaos in the early stage is very interesting, and the later stage is a bit too melodrama, which is actually contrary to the artistic conception of the original work. But I still thank this film for satisfying my bad taste in watching the grown-up version of the little prince... Finally, the fox is super cute!

    A man sits in a pile of bear children crying like a dog. It may have made a big adaptation in order to cater to the child audience, but it will make the story vulgar. All the plots in the book are simply taken, about roses, foxes, people from other planets... But the stop-motion animation is really beautiful there
