To be honest, before this film was released, everyone had great expectations, and a lot of publicity, including fans of the popular Dragon Nest game, had all been looking forward to it. At least I was looking forward to it.
Give it a positioning before watching it, it has the animation feeling of DreamWorks more or less. After reading it, I felt that maybe they didn't go the Hollywood route at all.
Start by asking yourself three basic questions. Think about it together.
1. What is the location of this film?
2. Does this film clearly tell the story?
3. How to
watch the film with special effects? First, look at the positioning. Right, each film has its audience, some are the elderly, some are soldiers, some are children, and some are young people. Who is the target audience for this film? First of all, the disadvantages of domestic animations are not named. For example, a certain number has already made 6 animations, a sheep and a bear. The audience for each of his animations are children. Adults take children to watch. Domestic animations have always been Level, this state is very wrong, everyone who watches movies knows it. The audience of animation should be relatively broad, not limited to children. However, if you want to do this, there are prerequisites. It doesn't mean that the kissing scene in your cartoon is just for young people to watch, right? And the kissing and love in the film already shows that they are not positioned for children. But I believe that he is not positioned for children to see, but he has come up with such a level of stories for us to see? This is the second question.
The script of this film is too low. First of all, as a movie, if you can't break through, you should be conservative. The three-act structure will tell the story clearly. Obviously, this film is a traditional three-act structure, but he just made the plot according to the three-act framework, and there is no rise layer by layer, that is, the sublimation of the plot. There is no growth story, it is not good-looking, but in this film, his core is very scattered, just like the protagonist and supporting characters, it is also very scattered. The protagonist is very thin, and the supporting characters are full. It's over, because there are too many supporting characters. Just like the Lord of the Rings, one main and many auxiliary, the main role is very clear, and at the same time is growing, the supporting characters each have their own characteristics, which makes people remember, and the Lord of the Rings has 3 hours, this film is only 90 minutes, 90 minutes. Minutes, if you want to tell such a huge story clearly, you will only make mistakes. This mistake is to ignore the details. A few details in the film are not bad, such as the flowers on the arrows. It is reflected in the brewing of emotions. If the film time is too short, then the emotion should be sublimated in the event, and the two should not be separated. In the end, after reading the whole story, I felt that the whole story was reluctant, and there was an Easter egg left at the end, alas. It can only be said that animation is not animation, and the film is not a film.
The final special effects, the special effects I can only say, not bad, I will also make CG special effects like this, but it requires a lot of manpower to do it, but, as a legendary story, right, can you not have so many dialogues, what is it? It all depends on the mouth, the big scene flashed by, and then said that the war was lost, you let me see the real fight, when the Lord of the Rings white robe summoned the light to destroy the army of darkness, that special effect is a classic of the big scene. Too bad the movie didn't show much.
There are too many things I want to say, so I won’t state them one by one. Next time I watch the movie, no matter whether you understand the movie or not, ask yourself after watching it. Finally, ask yourself, did you enjoy watching it? Everything else doesn't matter.
