The two leading animation companies in the United States, Disney is always the all-age direction, and DreamWorks is the teenage direction. I have always liked Disney more than DreamWorks. If I had to pick a Disney challenger, I would rather be the Blue Sky Studio, which is affiliated with Fox and has produced "Ice Age". No, Fox's generals jumped to Universal Pictures to set up Illumination Entertainment, and the ambitious ones also came to share. The first report: "Despicable Me", launched in a sequel year with no aggressive spirit in the two top brands, finally brought some light to me, a person who hates sequels.
What I dislike most about DreamWorks is its motion design: no matter the animal characters, they all move like Americans. In contrast, Disney is much more delicate. A child is a child, and a mouse is a mouse. In this regard, Illumination Entertainment is more like Disney, and the details of the action are all exquisite. There are no animals in Despicable me, but the characters and actions are different. The protagonist, the big bad guy Gru, has a European demeanor. The capsule villain has the word "cute" from its appearance to its movements. The little girls should also be naive, lively, and mature, and at half the cost of the usual Disney movies!
Look at the story again: It is a story about a villain who is too old to be old enough to be influenced by a child and discovers a good side, but it is done in twists and turns, and it is full of fun. It's a little educational, but it's not offensive. There is a little bit of sarcasm, but not sharp, the adults smiled and passed by, and the children did not understand and did not hinder their understanding. The whole story is filled with all kinds of jokes and clever little ideas, but it's not loud enough to be silly. Disney's ability to walk a tightrope has learned ten times ten.
There are also gaps: some jokes are made too stupid (such as the villain repeatedly bumping into things and getting stuck), the degree of fit between the jokes and the story itself is not too high, and the picture: every Disney movie, there is always something unforgettable The picture, this Ice Age has, "Despicable Me" does not.
============== Here is the dividing line to end the boring analysis ===================
A long time ago, I read the story of three villains in a peaceful town, dissatisfied with the quiet happiness of the town, and determined to steal the only streetcar in the town. In the end, the conspiracy of these three villains was discovered, they were influenced, and they happily joined the town life. After reading the story, I was very jealous when I was young: it's too sweet, how can there be such a beautiful and lovely town, and even the bad guys are so beautiful.
Despicable Me tells a similar story. Gru, a less-than-successful villain, after a rival steals the pyramid, decides to do a bigger conspiracy: steal the moon. However, his conspiracy was changed by three little girls. Because it is a young age, the story is not very complicated, so that people can walk out of the cinema happily after watching it without using their brains. However, the handling of details reveals new ideas. For example, after the pyramid was stolen, the American soldiers defended the beer cans, such as Gru's big car/airplane, such as the minions who printed PP with a copier... Finally, the ratio of the length of the minion The competition is exciting, 3D recommended.
How should I put it, "Despicable Me" is such an animation: don't expect too much, don't pursue deepness, find a peaceful and peaceful afternoon to watch such a movie, it will make people feel that life is very beautiful.
