Life of Pi (2012)
8/10
Your choice.
4 June 2020
We doubt all the goodness and refuse to recognize the cruelty of reality. Therefore, people with faith and tigers are easier to be happy than us.

Frankly speaking, until PI started telling the second story, my movie watching mood has been declining. If I have any dissatisfaction with the whole movie, it is the popular story "The Adventure of Me and Tiger at Sea", which is somewhat loose and Insignificant, highly respected 3D impact, the effect is fully within expectations. After watching the full movie, I have been wondering how if Quentin came to shoot this story, how would I shoot the escape from the sea, I am afraid there will be more flying paragraphs such as whipping tigers and fishing with tigers. However, since in addition to the function of pleasing ordinary viewers, the more tasks of Maritime Adventures are to show the director's aesthetic pursuit, it can only be lamented that Li An's dream is too restrained, too clever, and full of Eastern style of tranquility.

When PI slowly tells the story of the second kitchen version of the sea escape, it seems to me that it is a bit of a nightmare awakened from a deep sleep. At this time, you only find the foreshadowing before, all Not idle writing. Wang Baijie, who eats gravy, Depatillo, who does not respect faith, and the godly and tolerant PI mother, come into the seat one after another with the zebra and the orangutan after boarding the ship. The cruelest cruelty is that you rely on your imagination to regroup one by one and restore it to yourself. This is much smarter than the way some movies cry and spit blood on dogs.

In addition to the simplest character correspondence restoration, looking back carefully, "PI" is really careful in the text. For example, before the lifeboat fell to the sea, Wang Baijie shouted: "Zebra, zebra", in fact, he is the zebra. There is also a sentence that asked the orangutan, "Your child?" For example, that cannibal island, "exactly" is the shape of a person. Another example is when introducing the three kinds of Hindu Buddha, when talking about the three-faced Buddha flowing on the river, everything in the world is just his dream. There is really no better explanation of how PI built the first story. Everyone is his own god, you can't dominate the present, but you dominate the memory of the past and the fantasy of the future.

When both stories are in front of you, it is time to choose to come.

The Japanese refused to believe in the dreams of fairy tales, but they were even more reluctant to believe in the cruelty of reality, and after hesitating for a while, the reporter chose the first dream story, "You Follow God", PI's answer gave a The answer is ambiguous and clear.

I chose the second story without hesitation.

The Bengal Tiger in the first story, an easy interpretation is the other side of PI itself, but it is probably too sloppy to explain it with animal nature. PI's father gave an explanation-and you don't have feelings, and you learn from his I can only see my reflection in my eyes. So the Drift on the Sea tells the story of multi-religious believers and vegetarians-PI getting along with themselves. PI has experienced the process of fear, symbiosis, domestication, and dependence on tigers. This process is also about the balance between human nature and reason. In the end, the tiger's head didn't go back to the jungle-"Life just keeps laying down, but sadly, I haven't had time to say goodbye to you."-When people walk into the social jungle, why not forget it Looking back?

I am curious, what is Li An's choice?

As far as I understand it, I think tiger is the embodiment of fear. This fear comes from the awe of nature, the challenge of survival, and the inner loneliness that results from it. These fears of human beings may be enduring and desperate. The choice of adult PI is probably Li An's choice-experience him, face him, accept him.

The middle part of the film is all alone, but at the beginning and end of the film, PI has two things to accompany in his life-family and religion. Family and religion are the best ways for people to escape fear. Religion provides a conjecture to explain the world. For individuals, he is always a comfort for us to face the unknown. The family makes us feel responsible, connected, and contributing to this world, which proves the value of our existence. These two aspects gave us the courage to face ourselves in terms of being born and joining the world.

When you understand that life and ego are not used for victory, but for getting along, you will understand that although some things are not reasonable, you must believe that some things are not strong, but you must rely on them. This is not the choice in Ang Lee's movies. This is probably the first choice in Li An's life in the world.

The Notebook (2004)
9/10
Love is complete.
4 June 2020
I watched a movie very much like a fairy in the early morning This is a simple love story, a pair of first lovers experienced all kinds of joys and sorrows and finally broke through. Romantic and beautiful. However, what makes people feel different is that the whole story is interspersed in the memories of old age. The old man reads this past story to his wife who has lost his memory. They have been together for a lifetime and have sons and granddaughters. He still had to accompany her in the last time, waiting for a miracle. He said, because she is my baby. At the end of the story, she finally remembered him. Although only a short time. She cried and embraced him and told him I love you.

In the midnight ward, he walked quietly to her bed and called her gently. She opened her eyes and looked at him, calling his name. Noah, do you believe that our love will work wonders? He said, I believe, so I will bring you back to my side. The tears in her eyes were crystal clear. Will our love take us away? Our love is infinite. He lay down beside her, holding her hand tightly. He says. I will always protect you.

The two gray-haired old men held hands together and left.

If the ending of the fairy tale is so beautiful, why is there so much sentimentality? Seeing that there is still no trace of change in love even when it reaches the end of life, it is actually full of tragic color. Such an ancient love made people cry.

The reason why fairy tales are beautiful is because they are out of reach.

She likes to wear red, so passionate colors, just like her character. He was a happy and carefree man before, and she became silent and decadent after losing her. He promised to rebuild a manor for her, and there was a room facing the stream for her to paint. He wrote 365 letters, all of which were detained by her mother. He experienced a war and she fell in love again. She saw the bearded man and the manor behind him in the newspaper, and couldn't help flying to find him. They quarreled in the heavy rain and finally realized that they still love each other.

This is an ordinary love story. Everyone will experience love, but not everyone will have the love that is firm to each other. There are not so many excuses for love. If it cannot be completed, it can only show that it is not enough.

disappointment
3 June 2020
Some terriers are okay, and although I also complained about race issues, in fact this movie would be even more boring if it were not two people of color.

Scoob! (2020)
4/10
That's too bad.
2 June 2020
The quality is too bad, passers-by are rough like the role of the Sims, Scooby-Doo's voice is difficult to listen to, the character of the protagonist is extremely poorly shaped. Even Scooby-Doo was happy and ecstatic when being embraced by others, and the friendship rendered during the climax did not reach the level of touching people. The blending of the superhero line is just to make up for it from time to time, which weakens and weakens the protagonist group.

beauty
1 June 2020
There is nothing beautiful in the world! The shooting is so delicate that every frame can be used as a desktop! I heard that the male-only courtship dance was filmed for 6 months. I dare not imagine the whole project. I was particularly impressed by the struggle between mushrooms and ants, the battle between ape groups, and the great migration in Africa. While watching, I reflected on the meaning of life again and again: What is the significance of breaking the cocoon in 17 years only for the cicadas that survive for a day? Combined with Dawkins' book

Respect for life
1 June 2020
In the scene where the snake lizard chased 99% of the crime movies, the hard work and troubles of the double-employee family hats and penguins were a profound portrayal of the post-80s, and the three-toed sloth who was marching at full speed for courtship made me laugh. Just like the journey of life, this kind of documentary is my best inspirational movie. After watching the amazing and wild shock of the species, I feel that working hard and enjoying every day is the greatest respect for life. Android

Can the trip go on with the wrong girl
20 May 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The first time I saw the hostess, I was a little stunned. Such an annoying, irritating actress could find where to find it. I'll know after a while, Lauren Lapcus This actor who has appeared in more than one hundred movies, this year's new film is also spelled out, saying that it will be a movie.

The movie name clearly shows the theme of the movie, which is an oolong event. The male lead Tim met Missy Missy at the airport. The two fell in love with each other. They fell in love at first sight. When he got on the plane, Tim realized that he had made the wrong appointment. It was not the dream lover, but the same name, a blind date. For some reason, the journey began.

It has to be said that the plot design is really not satisfactory, the initial boredom, the so-called madman unexpectedly reversed at the end, according to the convention, did not wait for the unexpected plot, a bit panic. There is nothing new about the development of the plot, so be it. Many movies are not won by the plot. Let 's look at other aspects.

The heroine, this actor, really fights, starring in such a role. What an anti-human character is it, showing everywhere, out of the ordinary, swearing everywhere, sturdy with a knife on the plane . The screen is full of unbelievable expressions. When I see things that I do n't understand, I am happy to see it happen everywhere. It gives me the impression that the acting is in place. I ca n't blame the actors if they have a low score.

If this movie has a little language cleansing, just skip it. A large number of plots driving secretly are not the kind that cannot find evidence. The discussion of a certain topic is directly regarded as a branch of the film.

Although there are many cheerful plots, the West is not open to understanding, and the plot is boring and dozing. The acting of the actors is remarkable.

Titanic (1997)
9/10
Classic
18 May 2020
Children are actually very similar to philosophers. When I was a child, the big issues such as the fate of life and death were intertwined almost every night. I often felt that I would die for a long time until the end of the world, when I fell down into the deep space with the cracked earth.

The Atlantic ocean is as deep as the sea, can not see the edge of the sea and stars, floating people are insignificant, it is really desperate to desolate.

I'm afraid of the sliver of silence when life sinks.

I fear the eternal defeat of nature.

What can we do? Then the earth rose, the volcano erupted, the lava became unyielding, and the ancient city was swallowed up. Mountains crumble. Villages and cities crumble. When the ocean roars, the hurricane is raging, the waves are high, and the island sinks?

I looked into that little screen, and there was fear. That piece of water, so far dare not touch.



Ten years later, this film has become the background color of time for me and most people.

I know every piece by heart, every line of dialogue, every movement, every fluctuation.

I use it as an example for many compositions and even English reading exercises.

Ten years. Any movie can not stand the time and the population such a rush, the plot has become allusions, the truth has become common sense.

Ten years. I went from primary school to college, and the hero and heroine went from their youth to their midlife crisis.

However, even if it is known to all, even if time has sifted it into a leak, no longer able to block any mystery, it is still a myth.

It is a myth that whenever we face it, we cannot help but shudder.

Because no matter how hard the heart is, it will bow in the face of extinguished life and melt in the face of eternal love.



I was holding the computer crying all over trembling, can not help but imagine that the cinema line, girls holding the boy's hand, a dialing you nong nong into the ground, hysterical to come out, the spectacular scene.

Yes, we are looking for masochism, to use the greatness and disaster of the screen to confirm their mediocrity and happiness.

Those couples don't know if they're going to end up together or if they're going to end up together. Ross and jack are going to be together forever. However, who in the beginning of love, did not like the pair of young people as desperate?

Sometimes life just doesn't think about the future.



What would have happened to rose and jack if they had both been saved in that disaster?

To tell you the truth, I thought about all the possibilities to keep them both alive, and even thought that if they hadn't met, maybe rose would have been on the lifeboat and jack would have been fucking sleeping on the board. But what happens when I survive, I really don't doubt.

There are more poor people answer: as in the revolutionary road, the marriage crisis ah, trivial life ah, buried passion ah, quiet old ah; Or because of class position did not combine at all (MAO probably read more). -- where to learn to see through the world of mortals.



Isn't it annoying to come up here and preach? I just don't understand why two people who died together can't live together. Once so fit, why will separate.

Don't tell me that it's easier to keep your job than to start one. There's nothing new under the sun. I just know how life goes on, and it goes on and on.

Have you ever loved it? Have you ever cried and laughed, no matter what? Ever gone off the deep end? You have not subverted life, life to subvert you.

And they, they loved so much. So close. So live and die together.

Perhaps sometimes life is a naked subversion, dream and passion will be old -- but, is old, not dead. Passion grows old, love never dies; Dream will be old, ideal die; Man grows old, but his heart never dies.

The scariest thing is, have not experienced old, began to fear death, have not loved, began to spit.

I still believe in the amazing beauty of life, even if I can't see it after a while.

To put it bluntly, I believe rose and jack will stay together for years, decades, and centuries to come. Just because old rose looks back, so beautiful.



Welcome you to say that I am naive absurd, also welcome you to continue to mature desolate.

Speaking of which, Titanic is the most wonderful romantic movie I have ever felt. It is like drinking honey wine, which is not to speak of.

This is a gorgeous to the extreme, making the human difficult to do the background, but also delusion breakthrough time and life and death to the eternal love.

Rose jumped up from the lifeboat and jumped to the window, the most beautiful for her bravery and greed.

I have spent all my luck to meet you in the moment of my life. To this day only to find, had breathed the air.

I'm one of those people with a little hope of survival, maybe without jack, but I'm still on thin ice.

Top 10 of the year
18 May 2020
Top 10 of the year! Finally, I found a resonating point in love words. Life is a journey of constantly chasing dreams. At a certain point in time, a person meets a person, they grow together, encourage each other, have good, have pain, There is growth and regret, this is life. The director is very mature and mature, not only has ambition, but also has enough talent. The elements of singing and dancing are almost the entire history of the development of song and dance films, suitable for fans.

I 'm so lonely
17 May 2020
Women have minds and they have souls and they have ambitions ... I 'm so sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for. I 'm so sick of it ...

But I 'm so lonely.

After Jo said this, I couldn't help crying with her.

And when Jo got Shakespeare, I remembered that my friends sent me a few meters of pictures in junior high school. The feeling that my little talent is cherished by people is probably the best thing in the world.

good
16 May 2020
To be honest, I'm a little disappointed. It's a really clever, really good story, with all the twists and turns, and the actors are really good. But in the end, it fell into the usual pattern of Korean films. Now you can understand why the director said you couldn't tell the story, because if you did, it would be a lot less entertaining. Satire, dry humor, reflection on social problems, all of these are felt.
