My viewing order is like this. I first watched "Happy Manchuria 2" and thought it was so, curiously corresponding to the easter eggs, I went to watch "Happy Manchuria", which is indeed a classic, really fragrant, and then watched it again. I went through "Happy in the World 2" again, um, it's still average, but there are several places worth looking for easter eggs.
The core point of the two films is also a bright spot, and at the same time a point of controversy. It is Mary Poppins, the magical lady. It can be said that Julie Andrews in the previous film and Emily Blunt in this film are completely two Style, although Emily tried to think forward, that is, to make the British style of holding a shelf, chest and abdomen and chin, she succeeded, and she succeeded in shaping a typical British nanny image; but This Mary Poppins is not the one we like. It can be said that the reason why "Man of Joy" was popular in Europe and America in that era is indeed because of Julie Andrews's successful shaping-an Englishman who is not a typical Englishman.
In "Happy in the World", Mary Poppins' smile is full of youth and enthusiasm. Although she still holds her chest and abdomen and chin, her smile is touching.
The film upholds the gorgeous style of Disney's musicals. This style has a good continuation from the previous work to this one. The setting of the City of London is more realistic and magnificent under the technical level of 2019, but to be honest, as a family Movie-watching musicals do not rely on so-called grandeur and technology as their selling point. This is especially true in 2019. On the contrary, several special effects of the previous work were really refreshing at the time, and even many ideas were completely copied in the sequel. It is both the success of "Happy Manchuria" and the sadness of "Happy Manchuria 2". what.
If there is any change in "Happy in the World 2", then it is the addition of an unqualified villain like Uncle Face. It must be said that Uncle Face with a mustache does look fluent.
In short, "Happy Man 2" brings us more memories, memories of the excellent quality of the previous work, but as an independent film, it seems to be nothing bright.
