The adventure story is simple, and the content to criticize the satire of environmentalism, humanity, and class power is also clear. I especially like the dog part, the 4 pet dogs are so cute. Earlier in an interview with Ryuichi Sakamoto, I read his "unhappy" feelings about the film. After watching it today, I understand why he is upset. This film is not only a strong foreigner's style, but Japan is still a messy image, and it also plays a role in representing the destruction of the environment by human beings. The Japanese audience will probably be unhappy. After all, this plot can be established without taking place in Japan. At first, I thought that the director set the stage to Japan because he liked Japanese culture, but after watching the movie, he felt that the director was expressing his indirect expression... Don't you like it? (The director definitely doesn't like eating sashimi) But why is it that I'm not very comfortable after watching it? It is also because of the Japanese stage setting of this film. The Showa style during World War II, the young pilots who were radically brainwashed and regardless of life and death, etc. Coupled with the unpleasant soundtrack and a lot of drum beats, I have a feeling of depression of "devils entering the village". Except for the dog scene, it's not easy to watch. I don't know if the audience in the Asian circle will feel this way (or maybe I think more). Maybe "anti-war" is also one of the contents the director wants to express. The animation with good artistic effect, the dogs are also really cute, the ending is a bit inexplicable, the whole film is a cat with a gun. The soundtrack should be pretty good and it fits the movie but I don't want to go to the original soundtrack to listen to it. Nice subtle aftertaste.
