Personalized reviews
11 years later, the second brushed Ponyo.
The first brush was in 2011, when it was still in Po County, the curtain of life drama had not yet been unveiled, it was 4 stars at that time, and today it was changed to 3 stars, and I had to watch it several times when I fell asleep, what and what ah.
The only favorite shot is when Lisa hears Koichi not coming home and throws the spatula angrily to stop cooking, and then half lies on the ground to sleep. The only character I like is also Lisa, responsible and loving, but still a little too perfect.
Sousuke, is a little doll, very innocent and kind, at a young age, he also inherited his mother's sense of responsibility and love, and is very responsible, but talking about love and the responsibility of love at the age of 5 is nonsense.
Bo Niu doesn't like it very much, sprays people at every turn, and treats domineering willfulness as cute. In order to freely arrange his father like a demon, in fact, his father is just afraid that she will be contaminated and hurt so that he takes overprotective measures. If such a Bo Niu is treated with a little disagreement or treatment from Sousuke in the future, will he also fabricate Sousuke as a little devil?
Ponyo's dad is a metaphor for parents who are overprotective of their children, you want to protect her, set up a safe zone for her, but she wants to knock out. This film was borrowed by Miyazaki to say to the world's favorite parents: Let go, the hardships of life must be experienced by yourself; You love him so much that you become his enemy!
Finally, let's talk about Ponyo's mother, that is, a foreign sea god, looks like a mixture of Western and Indian, so big, and Ponyo's father is not at the same level at all, and such a marriage cannot be equal! That's why there are children like Ponyo!
Seeing that the audience comments said that Sousuke called Lisa by her first name, it was a manifestation of "equality", and it was necessary to learn it. It sounds ironic, two generations of parents and children, the first 20 years are the unilateral contribution of parents to their children, how to come to equality. That's enjoying all the pampering and challenging the authority of your parents!
