UP!-天外奇蹟

 

影片資料 影片年份:2009
出 品 國:USA 出  品:Pixar Animation Studios
發 行 商:博偉 導演: 彼特達克特

 

it's been a long time since i see a good animated film.

this movie is reallllllllllllllly very touching!!
the first part of the story is kind of heartbroken,
which is about how a couple lived their life.

while the protagonist ends up lonely in their house,
it is sooooooooooooooo sad.

as for his adventure to the paradise outthere,
it is also very imaginative and intentive.

unlike traditional narrative, the story is filled
with new characters and is really funny.

the dogs cannot bark
the house that floats
the mysterous bird that loves chocolate


 

Pixar is always good at capturing the very humane appearance and personalities and then injects these
to the "dead" figures.

that's why their cartoons are more humanistic than others

all in all i do recommend this film for those who love animated films as well as those don;t
it is really different and it is really touching

it is definitely a very interesting novel,
i am kind of hard to decide whether i like it or not
basically it is a magic-realistic literary work
(trust me, i did not invent this term for it)
(it is written on the book cover and book reviews)

the story is about a weird love story between two
college young men.

the protagonist is a otaku and the author himself is as well.

the story written by an otaku.....
well you could image how otaku it is

so ,...it is interesting but a little bit too
weird for me.

probably those otaku would like it

三木聰--轉轉

 


finally, i come to the last work I read and watch recently
(i dooooooo feel i should devote myself more into my Ph.d study)
as i explaint in the previous article,
the film is kind of overestimated by us before watching.
and due to the insistance of Fox, once again, i watch the adapted film right
after reading the original novel.

this is really the most unfail reading plan to both works.
you always prefer one of another and that's certainly not a objective opinion
(of course, it could never be objective)


 


Fox loves the leading character a lot.
he seems to appreciate all of him
his clothing, his appearance, his characteristic
to me, this male actor is crazier and craizer as time goes by.


 


he used to be a clean and neat boy with sunshine like atmosphere.
now, he looks like a vagabond (is this why fox loves him?)
sometimes he looks stylish, sometimes it is just slobby

the playwright has been changed a lot from the original novel.
I have to say i really like these changes.
basically, the movie version erased the most essential event in the novel.

also i think the choice of the character is not appropriated.
however, it is interesting to have the chance to review those amazing characters
from 時效警察
their performance is so great!

藤田宜永--轉轉





the reason we read this novel is kind of complicated.
bacause we watch the Japanese soap opera 時效警察 and were amazed by
the wonderful plot and character.

then we found out that the director had a film work in which
he adopted the same team.

then we found out that the film is adapted from a novel
finally the novel i discuss here.

however this chain effect has a very serious problem
that is
the order is confused.
for me, i finished the novel before watching the film
and it makes the film less attractive

also, the reading of the novel is kind of flat as well,
for the success of the soap opera is due to those amazing characters and
the director.

that is,
we totally overestimate the novel and the adapted film...

still to those unfamiliar with Japapnese novel,
it could be interesting

伊坂幸太郎--fish story


 


the system of blogger is definitely fulling me recently.
either the absence of the pic or the failure of upload the pics.

it really drives me crazy.
as i mentioned in the previous article,i've amlost finisned reading all
of the author's novel.
(probably it would be a huge pity that i could not read Japanese)

however, if i have to compare them, i would say this one is kind of more interesting
than the Devil.

this one is composed of some short stories and
some of them are really touching and moving

Fox loves the last story aboht family love
as for me,


i have to admit
i love it as well

still, some of the stories are over artificual
such as the one with the Justice superman

伊坂幸太郎--魔王




sounds amazing. I've read most of the author's works.
this one is......just like his other works.
surprising, interesting, and funny.

I've read one comment saying, "if you feel young while reading his works, that's because the author is really young."

that's true.
even though i am not familiar with some of the music he wrote,
i could always enjoy the aura he creates.

I still high'y recommend his works, though they are similar

actually, it seems to be my second time reading this novel. Do I like it? It's hard to say. In terms of its designation, the author definitely seeks to create something new-- the book inside the book, which is also a fable as a recording as the suffering of a jew. the attemp is obvious and the ambition is grand. As for the other aspects, such as the plot and the depictino of the characters, well, I have to say, I am not a big fan of it. The most interesting character is certainly the adopted father with a pair of beautiful gray eyes who died after returning from the warbattle. the death of the adopted parents and nice neighbors is by no means touching and painful. All in all, probably the novel comes in a bad timing. I mean, recently I devoted myself in Japanese detective novel.
