I rushed to the cinema to watch the Nezha screening. Because of a delay at work, I hurriedly sat down for the scheduled opening for ten minutes. But it was quickly pulled into the story. It's totally worth going to the cinema and I hope it's a hit. But I like it more because of Wang Yang's unbridled, unbridled imagination, well-crafted images, and interesting details, rather than because it has a deep emotional resonance. When I walked out of the movie theater, I was also curious: why I thought this movie was good, but it didn't get hit. Several of my friends said they cried after reading it. My tears were very low, but there was no time when I wanted to cry from beginning to end. Rather, it will be a bit lost. I thought about it, there may be the following reasons.
Minor spoilers below. If you are interested, please skip it.
————Spoilers are about to begin————
Maybe I don't want to see that Nezha's parents are very upright, it's just that Nezha's child is stubborn and irritable, and he doesn't know the painstaking efforts of his old father, and finally he wakes up, such a setting.
Maybe because in my heart, Nezha is the representative of the spirit of rebellion. He rebelled against authority with his life, whether that authority came from home or from heaven. "I don't owe you anything." Young people don't want to conspire with the world, they would rather jade pieces than kneel's blood.
The patriarchal power symbolized by Nezha's father is not so benevolent. The setting in the adaptation would make me feel too glorified of patriarchy. When the father and Tian Ting were right, the one who was wrong and ignorant could only be Nezha.
If I could shoot a story about the father's fault, the master's fault, the heavenly court's fault, and Nezha's unwillingness to accept that he was wrong, he used naive courage to break with the old system and fight against the old system, it would be more in line with the spiritual core of Nezha's story in my heart.
The Nezha in my heart is the Nezha who sang "Don't be afraid of melancholy children, it's Nezha who is guarding you" in "Nao Hai".
In the old cartoons I watched when I was a child, the Nezha who killed himself in the storm, in many cases, really gave me the comfort of "you are not alone, you are not alone".

Finally, I want to say that from the return of the great sage, the great protector, the great world, and the fate of the white snake to Nezha, I am very happy to see the new atmosphere of Guoman. I hope that more and better national comic works will appear in the theater. Guoman rushing duck!
