The second part is only 80 minutes. I don’t know why I already think the story is very complete (maybe because of the higher narrative efficiency when singing)
There is just one thing too lacking: Gao Fu’s heart changes are described too little. He seems to help Gina work and then take his girlfriend on strike and ran away. He couldn’t see that he was educated to take revenge since he was a child. I saw this at the time. Think about it when revenge is set; there must be a scene later, when Simba is about to lose in the duel of the lions, Gao Fu can kill him immediately, and then Gina shouts "Kill him, kill him" from behind. Gao Fu woke up after a writhing heart struggle, and finally led the wasteland lion remnant to return to the glory country. Of course, before this, we have to portray the contradiction between Gao Fu and Simba a little bit (the movie seems to only have The scene shows Gao Fu is going to kill him) and his confusion after falling in love with Qiara. The movie can take another ten minutes to portray these, but I think the reason why Gao Fu’s hatred is not further expressed should be because He decided that Gao Fu should be a positive role (Go Fu did not do a bad thing in the movie), and to show his love with Kiraya, if Gao Fu hesitated to kill Simba during the war, "Love will find a way" has to be put behind (it would be strange to kill your dad if you love it clearly), before it could only show a vague love, but Gao Fu only found out in the final battle I fell in love with Kiraya and had no choice but to keep splitting, so I stood on Simba’s side.
But I still want to give 5 stars for the second part. It’s good. Gao Fu is so handsome. The dog food is so sweet when I watch it.
In addition, some people say that Gao Fu is only a supporting role. I don’t agree. In terms of the role, Gao Fu is no less than Simba, and in the framework of this story, if this is not a sequel to Simba’s story, Simba’s role. If you cut it again, as in many similar stories, describing it as a more stubborn old king is perfectly feasible (and on the contrary, it can be said to be the power of love)
But Disney Dad knows that everyone likes Simba. The movie's name is The Lion King and the subtitle is Simba's Glory, so Simba's role must not be less, but Simba's role in this movie is not as great as before. Gao Fu has never done anything bad in the Glory Nation. He fell in love with Kira Ya and Simba also saw it. It was also Simba who went out to talk. Gao Fu had changed his mind this morning and it was impossible to harm Simba, and Gao Fu obviously did not. When he attacked him, Simba didn’t think clearly after he decided to accept Gao Fu. People even came back. Simba expelled him from the country. All the animals drove him away. He suffered such a great grievance. But Gao Fu But he didn’t do anything at all. This was obviously a prejudice against Scar’s descendants. It could be said that Simba was too reckless. Even Kiraya knew that Gao Fu could not harm him.
Moreover, it was Gao Fu and Kiraya that resolved the family conflict in the end. Simba only made the final decision. It can be said that the role of Simba in this movie is very small, and the main content is around Kiraya and Kiraya. Love and relationship with clan
I believe that you say that Simba is a supporting role (but from the perspective of "The Lion King Sequel", Simba is not and should not be a supporting role), I must object to Gao Fu being a supporting role. If Gao Fu is a supporting role, then he said The protagonist of Tuo should be Kiraya, not Simba. Kiraya should take on more roles (such as the hesitation of falling in love with his father’s rival descendants, there is nothing in the movie, Kiraya completely accepts Gao Fu) , So Gao Fu is the protagonist no matter from the point of view of the role, or from the perspective of the main conflict, and it is obvious that Gao Fu has as many roles as Kiraya. Gao Fu’s character set is very intriguing (it looks similar to a scar, and later got a scar that looks more like a scar, the more it contrasts his inner kindness), and Gao Fu is one of the main contradictions of the movie (revenge or revenge). Love). After Kiraya became the queen, Gao Fu was also regarded as the Lion King. Some people shouldn’t hate him just because he looks like a scar and was meant to come for revenge.
