Indifference in the age of traffic

The director Taika Waititi is really funny, and this little fat has already been on FAN.

-----------split line--------------

This movie is nothing more than about chasing down "savages" (emphasis added). To the child care center, the police, and this society, Chubby and Uncle are "savages". To me, the so-called "No child left behind." category of people are "savages." The film emphasizes "no child left behind" more than once, and the irony is particularly obvious.

We're socially besieged; we're bound by so-called rules; there's a myriad of forms to prove our existence... Honestly, after watching the movie, many people will adore such escapes. In this era of traffic, we need this kind of escape, we need to take risks, we need to feel the real feelings instead of "click" and send them to a circle of friends, we need to be a "Wilder people".

    Into the forest, fish into the sea. I thought the ending was: my uncle hung up to save Xiaopang, Xiaopang buried his uncle, three or five years later, Xiaopang became a monkey, flexible like Mount Tai.

    160623 @ The Landmark is based on the book adaptation, but the director QA said that 99.99% of the things are added by himself. For the "social" little fat man who abandoned bully, he chose fuck da world. The film is separated by a chapter. The 80's flavor and dubbing added by the director are my favorites, and there is another director who can follow it for a long time.

Hunt for the Wilderpeople quotes

  • Hec: You can take him, but I'm staying here.

    Hugh: Like hell. People want answers.

    Ron: Yeah, answers.

    Hec: Look, we got lost, I got injured, he's fine, it was basically a holiday.

    Ricky Baker: Not a real holiday because he made me do stuff.

    Hugh: Like what?

    Ricky Baker: Just stuff. He had a sore leg so he made me do things for him. It was hard at first because my hands are so soft, but I got used to it. I didn't really wanna do it, but it was the only way to survive. It wasn't always hard, sometimes I got to do my own thing. He pretty much never joined in with me though. I asked if he wanted to play with me, but he would just make me play with myself.

    Ron: I feel sick.

  • Ricky Baker: Shit just got real! Back up, homies, and let go of my uncle!
