When I watched "Shrek" for the first time, I happened to be having lunch. I saw the silt, bugs, and maggots in the title, and I was about to vomit. Switch quickly. It took two days to have the courage to continue watching.
This time, I chose a spot where I didn't eat.
"Shrek" is a typical dramatic plot, with a simple purpose, "to save the princess". A terrifying but brave green monster, a loud-mouthed donkey, marched all the way. The storyline is simple, yet has a subversive feel to it.
The feeling of subversion should come from the princess. She is really a strong princess. She can fight hooligans, blow snakes into balloons in one breath, and steal bird eggs with a high-pitched voice...
Before that, I want to say "Monster History" There are good things about Lake, but I can't go on anymore. I've left this post for two days. Now, two days later, I finally admit that I don't like "Shrek". If you want to ask if you don't like it The reason, that is, thinking is like a spring.
First, the front of "Shrek" is really disgusting, it almost made me spit out the rice, I guess people who like the previous paragraph will like the "Death is Coming" series very much.
Second, Shrek was not kind. He was quite heartless towards the donkey at first, but the donkey was innocent and stupid, and he didn't feel anything (and found out later), including being moved by the donkey later, he also felt that the donkey didn't dislike it. He, this is like a bad person saying, I am so bad, can you accept it, if you can't accept it, get out. Shrek is basically giving up on himself, maybe because he really likes living alone and likes those muddy and disgusting bugs, but since he wants to indulge his preferences and habits that are completely contrary to others, he shouldn't force others. Adapt to his preferences, because others will have their own habits and preferences. This is his own choice, so why blame others. It is impossible to be the complete opposite of everyone else, and to make everyone not have tinted glasses on themselves. Either live happily alone, or give up some of your individuality.
Third, the meaning of this plot point of the princess is that if her husband is ugly, does she have to cooperate with her husband's ugliness to make herself ugly as well? Maybe this is to satisfy the YY mentality of many lazy, fat and ugly diaosi. I want to marry a beautiful princess, but I don't want to look ugly, so let's be ugly together! It's strange that this didn't get the attention of feminists. Maybe "Shrek" wants to express, no matter how beautiful or ugly, I love you. However, Shrek was originally ugly.
Fourth, the plot is simple, very simple, it is to save the princess, but some new elements are used, such as the princess will become ugly, and the prince will become a monster. These add some jokes, but what I have seen is more of a spoof, commercialized, adult-oriented spoof. Will children really like this kind of animation? It was shot for adults. Remember where you have watched it, the younger the audience, the more friendship, and the older the audience, the more love. It seems that "Shrek" promotes the concept of love in the adult world, and it is the concept of diaosi love with peace of mind. Children only look at their faces, don't you know? Even kindergarten children would prefer that long and beautiful kindergarten teacher. A child will only think about, is this person beautiful, is this person kind, there are so many behind it, and what is hidden is so complicated, can a child guess it? NO.
That's about it. At first, I was just disgusted, and then I found that I didn't like this style of painting. Later, I found that I couldn't agree with the ideological connotation in it.
Think about it, will there be any advantages.
Actually there are.
This film is obviously made for adults, and it is a matter of aesthetic taste. And most of them are adults similar to Shrek.
This is even a targeted target market group. Adults love to play jokes, and adults just like to lust in the world they already have under the banner of recalling childhood.
There are still a few bright spots, at least the donkey's relationship is real, the princess and Shrek are also true love, they are a perfect match, a natural pair.
However, it's not my dish, if you don't like it, you don't like it. It's really hard to pretend that you like it.
