Too much beauty is not for us to comment so harshly on a sincere work

Whether it is the smooth fighting, the vivid colors, the touching picture quality, which is comparable to Makoto Shinkai's meticulous picture, the imagination of the whale swimming on the street, or the cute characters of the pig monster, the little brother, the monster and the dog-faced girls. I think the two hours are well worth it. Although it is not as shocking as watching a thousand-year-old actress back then, it is also a lot of surprise and moving. When I came to the rating page, I saw all kinds of comments with overwhelming negative emotions.
Because I have not seen all the works of Mamoru Hosoda, I will not criticize Mamoru Hosoda for filling the theme of fatherly love like a certain film reviewer. Even if a theme has been shot repeatedly for many times It won't prevent it from being a beautiful theme (well, if you guys are really good at watching the whole work, I can understand a feeling of getting tired of food to some extent) It
won't be like a film critic who fully criticizes the group actors who look like too much. Even if you have seen the weird and cute face, you have to keep staring at the group performance just as a background?
As for those film critics who complain that the whole film has a loose theme and can't figure out whether the director wants to express strength or fatherly love, what are you struggling
with? Since childhood, Xiong Che, who grew up alone without parents or masters, is lonely and self-sufficient, and Jiu Tai, who is also full of hatred of bears and children in his parents' hearts, has gained psychological comfort in each other's company. He also gained strength in the competition of master and apprentice. As a mature father, Zhu Wangshan pointed out at the beginning of the sentence, "Xiong Che, who wants to accept human children as his disciples, is still a child himself." I watched "Secret Garden" n years ago (Is there a classmate who happened to have seen it?) I was deeply touched. To deal with the bear child is to give him a bear child like him. They just need to poke each other's scars and lick each other. Feel that you are not alone and grow together.
The lonely little boy Jiutai gradually became stronger with a simple desire to become stronger. After returning to the human world by mistake, he accidentally took down "Moby Dick" in the bookstore. After elementary school, he stopped reading and began to yearn for another power of knowledge. I met Feng because of asking for some unfamiliar words (a film critic even asked Feng to express that Feng Matsushima is not stupid), a girl who insists on being weak, quiet, strong and patient on the inside. This is another kind of companionship and growth - friendship, feeling that the other person has made your life better, and hoping to use the same power to warm and protect each other.
Some people complain that the movie wants to use "Moby Dick" to increase the depth, and they are overdoing it! ? On the contrary, I feel that the movie chose this novel as a very sincere setting, and at the same time paved the way for the later Ichiro Yanhua whale. Ichirohiko, who was in a state of rampage, picked up the "Moby Dick" that Kaede had lost in the panic, and immediately transformed into a whale according to his imagination. This section is very, very amazing. The huge whale, with the water ripples flowing on its body, quietly and slowly swims on the solid street, like a graceful gesture in the sea. Even jumped up from the ground and dived down, ah, I can play with the progress bar 30 times. In the deep night sky, the blue water droplets scattered on the smooth body of the whale, shining with faint blue light, are as beautiful as a dream.

In addition, the editing is also done with great care. The scenes are subtly switched between the dialogues, with occasional pauses and de-sounding (in Makoto Shinkai's short film I am a cat, the dialogue between the protagonist cat and his little girlfriend is treated the same way). The seiyuu is great.
Explain why the male protagonist suddenly turned against his biological father: it is not because he hates the father in front of him for not fulfilling his parenting obligations or complains about his difficult growth. He just made a response under great pressure to escape the pressure and transfer the pressure to protect himself. This pressure comes from his inability to completely abandon Xiong Che, and it is difficult to choose between him and his biological father.
In the end, I am also very dissatisfied with the ending of Xiong Che, what is it like turning into a knife. . (covers face)
However, this film is still a work of conscience. Is commercialization wrong? Too little insistence will only lead to its own demise. Under the pressure of competition and survival, commercialization is not only understandable, but even worth learning. As long as it still brings beauty and moving, what is the importance of the optional definition of 'commercialization'?
Maybe everyone has seen too many good movies, but too much beauty is not to make us so routine and sophisticated. Such a sincere work with a snarky review. (It stopped so suddenly, OCD felt a problem)
