Still Burton

1. Just like "Skull Bride", it is still a non-mainstream Bolton-style aesthetic, still a Gothic style, and still wraps love and warmth in horror. There are thousands of tear-jerking stories of boys and dogs, but Bolton's stories can always grow unique new shoots.

2. The black and white images are simplified and the plot is concise and smooth. In the eyes of children, there is no difference between science and magic, both are props to realize their dreams.

3. When it comes to dreams, children are always purer than adults. The fundamental reason for the boy Victor's resurrection of the puppy Spach is: unable to accept the goodbye of his best friend. This kind of love that transcends the laws of nature and the taboos of death is moving. Later, the little friend Dong Shixiong frowned. Although he was utilitarian, he was also frank and lovely. Most of the resurrected were pets of the past that he could not forget.

4. The film is full of director style, with little breakthrough and consistent level. In front of love, everything is humble. 6.5 points.
