2011's "Gnomeo and Juliet" re-deconstructed "Romeo and Juliet", one of Shakespeare's "four tragedies", and replaced the protagonist with a ceramic villain in the garden. On the basis of retaining the original family disputes, The tragic atmosphere of the original work was dispelled with a happy ending.
When Gnomeo crawled out of the ruins, pulled Juliet out, and the two little people embraced each other affectionately, the beautiful trend of this "fan story" made the movie more touching than fun .
After a lapse of 7 years, the second "Naughty Detective" of this film has landed in domestic theaters again. This time, "Sherlock Holmes and Watson" will be used as the "pointing topic" characters, with sophisticated production, funny plots, and joyful scenes. The atmosphere, deduces a brand new "Fu Hua" story, and reminds us that the most important thing in life is the people who are "accustomed to".
Audiences who have watched the first film must be deeply impressed by the ceramic goblin dwarves in the movie. They have different shapes and are endowed with different interesting points. At the same time, I will find that these ceramic villains are so detailed that even the bumps and flaws on their bodies are so real. If I didn't do my homework, I really thought it was a stop-motion animation shot with real ceramic villains.
In "The Naughty Detective", the production of the film is more delicate and sophisticated. Except for the fake ceramic villain, the garden deer and the four unreasonably cute rabbits, Nuo Sherlock and Juliet are dressed as squirrels and cross the park. In the paragraph, whether it is the pugs that hunt the two protagonists or the three squirrels who play the role of "the people who eat melon seeds", the movements are so small and the hair and expressions are so delicate and realistic that it makes people speechless.
In order to achieve the "finished product" effect in the film, the animator has to go through five procedures, which the creator calls "passing through", that is, storyboard, layout, animation, pre-production of light and shadow, and post-production of light and shadow. After these "five levels", the animated characters on the screen can change from conception to "live".
For an animated film, the completion of the animated characters is like the selection of actors for the live-action version, and the story is the most important thing.
At the beginning of "The Naughty Detective", the old partners Nuo Sherlock and Watson and the villain Moriarty have a battle in the museum. Although it is only an animation, the battle on the dinosaur skeleton makes people see The thrill of a Hollywood action blockbuster.
Then the camera changes, Gnomeo and Juliet and their families come to the new garden with the owners who have relocated to the city. The two leaders of the "Blue and Red Family" announced their retirement and handed over power to the young couple, Gnomeo and Juliet.
In order to arrange the new home of the red and blue goblins, an invisible rift appeared between Genomeo and Juliet, so that Nuo Sherlock "asserted" that if they continued like this, the probability of breaking up was 99.9%.
The sudden disappearance of the "Garden Little Man" not only set a mystery point for the audience, but also showed the two "pairs" of "Ginomeo and Juliet" and "Nolmes and Watson". Give us.
Although it is an animation, the main creators are not "lazy" because of this. The chase in the sewers, the frightening rat group, the danger of the huge waves, the escape in the park... will make you forget that the protagonists are just a group of ceramics Baby, can't help but worry about them.
In addition, the gorgeous and mysterious "Chinatown" and "cats full" group in the film, as well as the pure Mandarin that "emerges", are the precise implantation of oriental elements by the film party.
The crazy villain "Sugar Doll" Moriarty in the film has a bit of "clown" spirit. Between him and Nuo Sherlock, it is a kind of "matching opponent" duel, which can be said to be "love-hate entanglement". , cherish each other and kill each other."
A very interesting detail is that at the end of the film, he used his mouth to complain that "the bad guys fail because they talk too much".
But "evil does not overwhelm the righteous" is not the focus of "Naughty Detective". Although this family-friendly animated movie takes suspenseful detective characters as the protagonists and takes case-solving as the direction, what it really wants to show is still "love".
The problem between Gnomeo and Juliet is that Juliet is "accustomed" to his efforts and "stingy" with his response and recognition;
The problem between Nuo Sherlock and Watson is that he ignores his comrades who fight side by side with him as a shadow-like foil, but forgets that he is the one who has stood by his side the longest, who has helped and trusted him the most. people.
Suddenly I thought of the question: a stranger gave you a little kindness, and you were moved and cherished. Your family paid so much for you, but you couldn't get a thank you.
Nuo Sherlock and Juliet in "The Naughty Detective" are like this, but in the process of crushing the Moriarty conspiracy, they all understand this.
When he thought that Watson was broken, Nuo Sherlock once said that "emotion is the enemy of logic", but when he finally gave up his life to save Watson, it was also when he denied his view.
So, I originally came to the theater for "cute" and "fun", as well as "Yi Mei", Johnny Depp, director of "Kung Fu Panda", Emily Blunt and many other dubbing and producing celebrities. , but was moved by this "cliché" theme.
It doesn't matter how many times you listen to it, what matters is whether you made a change because of it?
When you are complacent because of your success, think about whether you have neglected the person who is most qualified to say thank you! "naughty"
