Animal protectionists got their magic power

I've never liked some animal protection organizations, snatching a dog from a homeless man and posting on FB that we saved it, shouting they ain't food outside the restaurant, and in the movie, just a lot of chaos to let go of pigs And loss, they protect animals by messing up and hurting the human world, it's great, I'm curious about what kind of abhorrent things you have done as humans that humans can't forgive, and by saving animals, you gain your own heart consolation? It's better to do a good job in the setting of human beings, take care of yourself, live your own life, and don't cause too much trouble to others, it is already very good. Come on, you can be human? In addition, I'm glad the director didn't end up with an ending where Meizi's Buddha-nature exploded and opened the pigsty and let go of all the super pigs. Every ordinary person is selfish and loves the person he loves.

    Finally got to the premiere in Seoul. It's a pity, but that doesn't stop me from liking this movie. Every scene is not superfluous. From the beginning, it shows Yuzi's high intelligence, Meizi's motor nerves, etc. very straightforwardly. The characters are also very facial, the story is simple, direct and fast, and it is highly entertaining, as if afraid that the audience will watch it. It's like I don't understand. As Feng Junhao said, this is his first movie about love, it's more cute and interesting, and the irony and criticism are still there.

    Three and a half stars, I did not expect that the four stars felt that the action chase into the second half was a bit protracted, and the Korean-American hybrid seemed to be incompatible. Don't talk about environmental protection or animal protection, but how can people who keep pets watch it and not be moved, and tears at the end when they see it. And there is an easter egg behind the long subtitles.

Okja quotes

  • [first lines]

    Lucy Mirando: [to camera while descending industrial stairway] Oh, thank you! What a terrific crowd! Welcome to my inauguration! I'm Lucy, Lucy Mirando, of the Mirando Corporation. Welcome to my grandfather's old factory. Now, I know, we all know, that Grandpa Mirando was a terrible man.

    [crowd laughs]

    Lucy Mirando: We know of the atrocities he committed in this space. We know these walls are stained with the blood of fine working men. But today, I reclaim this space, to tell you a beautiful story. Now the rotten CEOs are gone. It's Mirando's new era with me, and with new core values, environment, and life. Awesome.

    Employee: You're much more fun than the last chief executive.

    Lucy Mirando: Well, former CEO Nancy is my sister, but, uh... we're very different people. We have very different ways of being. We have very different business ethics. But she's totally ignorant about humanity. She lacks vision beyond her next round of golf.

    [crowd laughs]

    Lucy Mirando: The world's population is at 7 billion. 805 million human beings struggle with hunger every day, including 30 million right here in the United States. The world is running out of food, and we're not talking about it.

    Lucy Mirando: We needed a miracle. And then we got one. Say hello to a super piglet. This beautiful and special little creature was miraculously discovered on one Chilean farm. We brought this precious girl to the Mirando Ranch in Arizona. Our scientists have been raising her with love and care ever since, observing and performing various studies. And we've successfully reproduced 26 miracle piglets by nonforced, natural mating. They are like nothing on Earth!

  • Jay: He still hasn't eaten anything?

    Blond: No, he's, uh... still trying to leave the smallest footprint on the planet that he can.

    Silver: All food production is exploitative.

    Blond: Try this.

    Silver: Mmm-mmm.

    Blond: Come on. It's just a tomato.

    Silver: Ripened in ethylene gas. Transported in trucks.

    Jay: I admire your conviction, Silver, but your pallid complexion concerns me.
