《少年派的奇幻漂流》成人的童话故事

有人说,2012之后,是踏入精神层面的年代。从《天与地》关于人吃人的题材,到《少年派》里面用童话般的故事去美化人性。我开始有点相信,我们已经开始撤离,丧尸和魔法少年的年代。正视自己的信仰,面对和接受人性可怕的一面,是导演希望表达的。


刚看完《我的神啊》一部质疑信仰的电影,再观看《少年派》,不难发现他们相似逗趣的地方,都是他们用最浅白,貌似童话般诉说着严肃的信仰问题。他们让观众可以用另一个角度,观感去体会出一些让我们感到愤怒和不平的事实。

华人有句:“初生牛犊不怕虎”,当里面的小犊变成一只老虎后,他还会害怕老虎吗?由于每个人的信仰都不一样,因此很难去评价人和生命的价值。正如很多人都说,“现代”的宫廷戏,都是在反映“现代”社会的人性,因此得到热棒。而当少年童话,反映成,成人的生存历程下,再成熟的人也都凌可相信,这个世界上是真的有“神”。

如果说信仰造就了战争,那么毫无信仰创造出来的就是出卖人性。李安这部《少年派》和他过去的作品都难以得到我的共鸣,大概是因为我们的信仰并不一样。虽然我喜欢童话故事,但是喜欢童话并不相等于接受童话。从质疑历史到质疑信仰,从坚守原则到放弃原则,再重整自己的一套人生哲理。我们都不得不承认,不管是当个神,还是人吃人,套句:“当个活着的禽兽,还是当死去的好人”,我们都不断在说服自己,把自己的行为合理化。

大家过去所信仰的,“善有善报,恶有恶报”等等的说法,已经无法再恐吓谁了。如果一个人无法和自己成为朋友,就像少年和老虎一样,即使天不亡你,那个人也活不长。反之,为了生存,渴望生产,人吃人又算得了什么。当天不助你,人总要自救,只要能活下,才能证明神是存在的。而人对生命的渴求,往往是超乎人自己可以想象的。对于信仰不也是一样吗?人可以为了自己的信仰失去自己的性命,也能为了别人的信仰牺牲自己。说到底,我们都不过想证明,自己的信仰是正确的。

It is said that after 2012, entered the era of the spiritual dimension. Cannibalism theme from "heaven and earth" to "young faction" inside story with a fairy tale to beautify humanity. I began to believe that a little bit, we had begun to leave, the young age of zombies and magic. To face up to their own beliefs, to face and accept humanity terrible, the director wanted to express.

Just finished watching the movie "O my God" a questioning of faith, and then watch the "Young School", it is not difficult to find them similar funny place, are they using the most plain, looks like a fairy-tale tells of the serious issues of faith. They allow the audience to another point of view, the perception can be used to understand the fact that we are angry and uneven.

Chinese saying: "fearless", inside the calves into a tiger, he will be afraid of the tiger? Since each person's faith is not the same, so it is difficult to evaluate and the value of life. As a lot of people say, the palace of the "modern" opera, are reflecting the humanity of the "modern" society, so to get a hot rod. When a juvenile fairy tales reflect adult survival course, mature people are Ling can believe that this world is really "God".


If faith created a war, then there is no belief in creation is the seller. Ang Lee 'Junior School "and he works hard to get past my sympathy, probably because our beliefs are not the same. Although I like a fairy tale, but like the fairy tale is not equivalent to accept the fairy tale. Questioned history to question the beliefs, stick to our principles to give up the principle of reforming its own set of philosophies of life. We all have to admit that, whether it is as a god, or cannibalism, a blessing or a curse: "When beasts alive or dead good man, we are constantly convince myself to rationalize their behavior.


We have faith, "what goes around, comes around," and so to say, has been unable to intimidate anyone. If a person can not become friends, like teenagers and Tiger, even if the day is not dead you, man may not live long. Conversely, in order to survive, the desire for production, cannibalism what did it matter. The day does not help you, people always want to help themselves, can live under in order to prove that God is there. The people thirst for life, often than people can imagine. For faith is not the same? People can lose their lives for their faith, to sacrifice themselves for the beliefs of others. In the final analysis, we are nothing but want to prove that their own beliefs are correct.

《逆世界》不光是一部爱情电影

《逆世界》确实是一部很出色的爱情电影,不光男的帅女的俏,更因为背景和画面都美得像画。抛故事的外衣,大家都不难发现,这是一部青蛙王子的故事。女主的世界是属于上流世界,而男主角的世界是相较于贫穷。而女主角的世界正是不断没夺,男主角世界的一切造就自己的富裕。

故事非常浅白,同时也反映着贫富差距越大的现今社会。 男主角靠着自己的能力不断往上爬,为的就是希望有一天可以去到女主的世界。只是,每回当他差点可以说明一切前,他就得从天堂掉到地狱。那不也是现代穷困少年的处境,那怕你再有创意,再努力,都不能有任何非份之想,不然就会掉入万劫不复的处境。幸运的是,男主角遇上了好人,才造就了完美的结局。只是,现实里面,又有多少人可以遇上故事里面的好人。

说到最后,男主角还是靠着上面世界里面的人,才得以翻身。再好的创意,如果拿不到版权,没有发展的资金,得不到自由,就什么也做不了。而故事里面,被上面世界开除的科技部员工,是在反映着谁,其实也不难猜。科技发展到尽头,需要的就不再是电脑科技,而是生物科技。当人变得无所不能,就希望当神,不论是性别,还是生老病死,都希望可以掌控在自己手上。

大胆且勇敢的男女主角,幸运的战胜了地心吸力和经济霸权,改造了整个《逆世界》。而我们呢?又会那么幸运,遇上个伯乐吗? 再说,男主角也有祖传秘决,我们拥有什么呢?因此,《逆世界》不光是一部爱情电影,它还是一部大胆的科技电影,而且不少情节是值得观众去深思的。毕竟,要改变自己的命运,总得从自己做起。不想贱卖自己的创意和心血,就得学会保护自己。

Journey to the West 《西游降魔篇》并非经典喜剧

看《西游降魔篇》时,会有一种不完整的感觉。同样,看《情癫大圣》时,也有一样的感觉。无独有偶,这两部剧的剧情,都讲述着唐三藏的爱情故事。女主角一样的强悍,也一样的痴情。敢大胆假设,《大话西游》后,刘导和周导曾经讨论过想拍类似的剧情,只是两人的表达手法有所不同。刘导往往着重于潮流趋势,梦幻和美感,从其他电影里面寻找精髓,骨子里都是港味和喜感。相对于周导,不难发现他往往强调外表不是最重要,拍摄时却又着重于于人物表情和肢体语言,那怕每一个细节和节奏都希望掌握的准确,也因为这样多了一份压力。因此,只觉得这两部作品都不是上佳之作。

独立来说,《西游降魔篇》给我一种沉重的感觉。或许是因为有国外公司投资的关系,《西游降魔篇》拍成了一部西方成人童话故事。题材和最近美剧还满相似的(童话故事里面的怪兽来到现代杀人那部),而周导拍得比他们强的地方就是,他利用自己多年拍剧的经验,强调也着重于演员的面部表情和肢体语言。严格来说,其实这样是很不自然和造作的,不过就因为是周导的作品,这种拍摄手法,反而成为了他的招牌之作。其次,不用大牌演员,和干脆的拍摄手法,值得一赞。过去周导的作品,总是给人“喧宾夺主”的感觉,而这回套用了不是港星的演员,倒是拍出了“画龙添睛”。

只可惜,有着喜剧的剧套,却少了香港喜剧的精神。当然,周导的作品一向观众群都倾向于内地,只是这样的作品是否能满足内地观众却是未知数。对于,习惯于港产戏剧的我来说,周导这部作品有点无聊和缺乏新鲜感。就像第一回看《少林足球》会觉得很新鲜,第二回看《功夫》会觉得很有趣,可是当看完期待四年的《西游降魔篇》却感觉不过如此。里面的爱情重叠了,里面的对白几乎想不起来(有吗?),情节可笑点并不多,也没带半点创意。故事和电影拍摄很认真严禁,可是并不好笑。就像一道美食,用料烹饪和取材都很认真,花了好长时间,可是吃起来却淡而无味。那怕,知道食材很有营养,厨师很出名,可是不好吃就是不好吃。同理,一部喜剧,笑过即忘,固然肤浅,笑过后让你感觉没半点喜感,还带着淡淡的遗憾,也并非经典的喜剧。

See "Journey to the West fell monsters papers, there is a feeling of incomplete. Similarly, see "Tall Story", have the same feeling. Coincidentally, the story of two drama tells the love story of the Tripitaka. Heroine as tough as the infatuation. Bold hypothesis, "Westward Journey" Liu guide and Chou had discussed the want to make a similar plot, just two different methods of expression. Liu guide tend to focus on the trends, fantasy and beauty, to find the essence from the other movies inside bones are Hong Kong flavor and delight. He often emphasized appearance is not the most important, but when shooting focus on character expressions and body language, even if every detail and rhythm wish to master the accurate, but also because such a pressure relative to the weekly guide, it is not difficult to find . So, I just feel that these two works are not good for.

Independent, "Journey to the West fell monsters chapter," Give me a heavy feeling. Perhaps because of the relationship of foreign investment, "Journey to the West fell monsters papers made into a Western adult fairy tale. Theme and the recent U.S. drama full of similar (fairy tale inside the monster came modern murder Department), Chou looks stronger than they, he used his many years of filming experience, emphasizing the focus on the actor's facial expressions and body language. Strictly speaking, in fact, this is not natural and artificial, but because it is the works of the Chou, this shooting style, they became his signature for. Secondly, do not have the big-name actors, and simply shooting style worthy of commendation. The works of the past week guide always gives the "overwhelming" feeling, which apply not a Hong Kong movie star actor touches shoot "painted dragon Tim eyes.

Unfortunately, only has a comedy drama sets, but less of the spirit of the Hong Kong comedy. Of course, Chou's work has always been the audience tend to mainland, just whether this works to meet the the mainland audience but unknown. For me accustomed to the Hong Kong-produced drama, week guide this work a little boredom and lack of freshness. Like the first time to see the "Shaolin Soccer" will feel very fresh, look back at the "Kung Fu" will find it very interesting, but when they feel after reading to look forward to four years of "Journey to the West fell monsters papers just so. Love inside overlap inside the dialogue almost can not remember (have?), Ridiculous plot point not more, have not the slightest idea. The story and the film shoot very non-seriously, but not funny. Like a food material to be used for cooking and drawn very seriously, it took a long time, but taste it, it is insipid. Even if, know very nutritious ingredients, cook very well-known, but not delicious, is not very tasty. Similarly, a comedy, laugh over that is forgotten, of course, superficial, laugh after you feel not the slightest sense of joy, but also with a touch of regret, it is not the classic comedy.
