cute monster movie

———— This is not a film review———— This is a movie watching diary———— The same as the "Feelings of Watching XXX" written by elementary school——

There are two impulses to write this film review. First, I just watched the last scene of Anne Hathaway's very two-dimensional (Korean bar scene), which was deeply adorable; second, as a person who could not accept violence and bloodshed, I was worried at the beginning that it would turn black because I didn't know it. In which theater's introduction did you see the word "Thriller"? It's not very suitable to watch such a cute monster movie. XXX This is not a movie review, I'm just talking about my mental activity. Let me first record it very colloquially or forget it after a meal.

The plot is very fast, and it is very enjoyable to watch. I see some comments mentioning feminism (or mentioning feminism), which is something I didn't think of when I was watching the movie, and I don't want to think about it this way. After all, there are indeed many manifestations of the current living conditions of women, but when everything is put on the table and spread out, it is no longer a distinction between women and women. Anyone, in fact, has a (little) monster in his heart, depending on whether it is good or bad.

In fact, the whole comedy has been under pressure, the so-called black comedy, okay. At the beginning, the speed of the breakup with the boyfriend was just right, and there was no need to describe the boyfriend. Later back in town, there are a lot of places (I feel) that some are not explained clearly/not necessary? For example, the details of many chats are not very important and there are some distractions. Sometimes personality changes are too abrupt? But that's okay too. Later, when the (ex) boyfriend came back, it was obvious that even the boyfriend who came back to seek reconciliation was not suitable for her. There is a reason for all the dark side of things. Watching this, I was reminded of how my friend (more than one) used to tell me how his boyfriend was blowing his self-confidence. In fact, a good relationship should not be like this, right? Fortunately, the heroine simply rejected her boyfriend. If you want to talk about feminism, it may be best reflected in the part of the phone call. "Aha I don't really have a 'must' to explain to you."

For some people who think that "European and American countries can influence other countries with the touch of a finger", didn't they change back to monsters and go to the United States at the end? On the contrary, I think it would be very good if Chinese (Asian) movies can also produce such effects. For example, in any park we step into, there will be a monster in New York, USA, or something. It can perfectly explain a series of monster films starting from King Kong, which kills two birds with one stone.

As for the final general evaluation, I just quoted a quote from Article 23 in the wiki comment, It isn't always successful, but when the film works, it's a blast.

At the end, I was very happy to help her think about what a monster this big should be . How to deal with such a small person in the palm of my hand, but I simply threw him out hahaha, just a star flashed in the sky✨.

The ending song is very pleasant.
