I suddenly wondered: shouldn't Kung Fu Panda 2 have no theme?
In fact, even though mr.qi has a lot of opinions on Kung Fu Panda 2, I still insist that Kung Fu Panda 2 is an excellent movie. In the 89-minute film, I laughed about 10 times, an average of once every 10 minutes. What more could you want from a cartoon? Are you tired of trying to learn various life philosophies from cartoons and see if this is a cultural invasion of China?
Kung Fu Panda 2 is indeed the reality of American culture under the cloak of Chinese culture, there is absolutely no doubt about this. However, Kung Fu Panda 2 is also definitely a successful animation, there is no doubt about that.
The setting of Lord Shen and Phoenix City makes me feel that the world of Kung Fu Panda is a lot wider. In the previous setting, I felt that the pandas were only playing in a hill, but the process and ending of 2 instantly made me feel that the world has broadened and a new world view has been formed.
But the plot of Kung Fu Panda is really vulgar, whether it is the story of saving the world, or the theme of what am i, or at the end, Kung Fu Panda uses Tai Chi to resist the cannon... Every progress of its plot can be expected by you . Even when I saw the master playing with water droplets in the hole at the time, I thought, Panda will not use this trick to deal with the cannon in the end, right? As a result, he really did this against the cannon.
But why don't I scold it, why do I still think it looks good?
I think it's because although the big tricks and the big environment have always been expected, the small details make me laugh, and this movie is really brilliant. For example, the part where the panda and the Fantastic Five fought with the wolf on the street in a similar way to the dragon dance in Phoenix City, for example, Shen Wangye's martial arts gorgeously blended his tail, every time Shen Wangye opened the screen, I couldn't bear it. You must be amazed, and Lord Shen's darts are like his feathers. There is also a seemingly non-existent adultery between pandas and tigers.
The graphics and martial arts design are truly amazing.
In the end, this is not a film like the Butterfly Effect after all, and it is too unnecessary to be demanding about its outlook on life, values, and worldview. Comparing it to Rio [theme is freedom], and to the Rat Chef [theme is that anyone can do great things], its theme is just as cheesy as Rio's, not as good as Rat Chef.
But I have been holding the mood of the panda series without the theme, this is really a very good film. And this movie, not the plot for the theme, but the theme for the plot.
So I give him high marks.
