It's too picky to hug you, but I think the Travels of the Flying House Circle are really good. I haven't read the suggestions. Look at the Travels of the Flying House Circle.
I just finished reading it. It's very good and moving. It's suggested to look at it.
Aspect 1: Pixar's first 3D animated feature film, Pixar, will never let us down. The 3D era is coming suddenly, and Pixar will not be willing to fall behind its two competitors, DreamWorks Animation and Blue Sky Studio. As Pixar's first 3D feature film, Travels around the Flying House has made a considerable contribution. The film is Pixar's tenth animated feature film and the first animated opening film in the 6-year history of Cannes Film Festival. Directed by Pixar's veteran, Peter Docket, who directed Monster Company. In addition, the film is Pixar's first feature film featuring ordinary people, so many people have doubts about its box office prospects. However, after its release in North America, the strong performance of Flying House dispelled these doubts. The global box office of the film exceeded 731 million dollars, which was the second best-selling film in Pixar films at that time, second only to Finding Nemo. Of course, this was also related to the relatively high ticket prices of 3D movies. Like Pixar's previous work, Flying House has an excellent reputation, ranking 84th on IMDB website, which ranks fourth among all animated films. The film critics were completely impressed by it, and the praise rate of the film on the rotten tomato website was 98%. The famous film critic Roger Abbott gave a perfect score of four stars. John Horn, a film critic of the Los Angeles Times, thinks that Flying House is the most ambitious of all Pixar films. Aspect 2: Strange old people and fat children forget to make friends with each other. It's sincere and moving. Pixar movies can always move people with emotion, and this "Flying House" is no exception. There are two main characters in the film. One is Carl Sr, a 78-year-old retired balloon retailer. According to the director, this role was inspired by the legendary movie star Spencer Tracy, and the other is Russell, a 1-year-old Asian boy. After the death of his wife Ellie, old Carl became withdrawn and became the best nail house because he refused to sell his land to developers. The developer is soft and hard every day, which makes him restless. Just then, Russell, a fat boy, came to the door and pestered him for a badge to help the elderly. Old Carl built a flying house with tens of thousands of balloons in order to realize Ellie's dream of visiting Wonderland Falls, a South American resort, but only after going to heaven did he find that Russell had built his downwind house. At first, old Carl didn't like Russell. He didn't have children of his own, so he didn't know much about children. Moreover, the fat child asked too much. One moment he wanted to adopt a giant bird, and the other he was tired. But gradually, the two became good friends ... The chemical reaction between Carl Sr. and Russell Jr. is the emotional engine of this film, and the sincere and touching friendship between them has injected strong emotional power into this film. Only a few films can make people deeply moved after knowing a smile, and Flying House is one of them. Aspect 3: The golden hound is a golden green leaf. There are two main supporting roles in Flying House, both of which are animals. One is Kevin the Giant Bird, and the other is Doug the Golden Retriever. Kevin is a mysterious bird that can't fly in South America. He is optimistic and naughty. He likes chocolate best. He became good friends with Russell the first time he met him. More importantly, without him, there would be no long adventure story between Carl Sr. and Russell in South America. Doug, the golden retriever, is a member of the dog team trained by adventurer Muntz to catch giant birds. Because he wears a voice collar, he can spit people out. Doug prefers to make friends with old Carl and Russell than being a loyal servant of Muntz. These two animal characters are very lovable, especially Doug, who was a little timid at first, and later became brave, especially the part where he put a shame ring on the evil dog Alpha, which made people feel extremely carefree. In fact, apart from Kevin and Doug, Flying House also has an important supporting role, that is, the dream place of old Carl and his wife Ellie, the unique landform in Venezuela in South America-the fairyland waterfall on the Grand Canyon. After the Pixar animators came to the field to collect the scenery, combined with superb computer imaging calculation, the wonderland waterfall with extremely magnificent scenery was vividly presented to us. Aspect 4: Wonderful details are continuous. One of the trump cards of Pixar movies is that they can always design some unexpected and amazing details. In this film "Flying House", such details abound. For example, the piggy bank at the beginning of the film represents the dream of Carl and his wife Ellie, but every time the piggy bank is almost full, there will be an accident to clear it, which will pave the way for old Carl's later flying house adventure. And old Carl's flying house rose to the sky soon, and he lost his way. At this time, Russell, a fat boy, took out a GPS gift, but as soon as he showed off the use of this baby, he accidentally threw it out of the window. That is to say, they could not use it to navigate. This detail is better than the comedy effect. In addition, there are high-tech collars around dogs' necks, which are not only positioning communication devices, but also enable dogs to talk to people, thus solving a big problem that dogs can't communicate with humans in one fell swoop. Even the four tennis balls on old Carl's cane, which were originally unremarkable, played a wonderful role at the crucial moment. Aspect 5: Thrilling scenes are better than special effects. All Pixar movies will have a long thrilling chase scene, which should be regarded as Pixar's exclusive patent. For example, in the space city chase scene in Kawara Tsutomu the Robot in 28, Kawara Tsutomu was chased by a large group of police robots, which was both full of tension and interesting; The year before last, in "Food Story", the talented rat chef first came to the kitchen of Augustus restaurant, which he admired for a long time, and he was caught in the array of chefs, and he had to escape all kinds of bright soup and dark fire in the kitchen, which was very thrilling and scary.
At the beginning of the story, Carl Fredrickson, a little boy, was watching the news film intently. Charles Muntz, a famous explorer, and his dogs had just returned from an expedition in South America in a hot air balloon. Muntz announced that he had discovered a new species, but scientists didn't believe him, calling him a liar and Muntz was discredited. However, Carl Jr. is convinced of Muntz's experience, and takes his words to heart, especially his sentence "Adventure is out there", which is regarded as a wise saying by Carl Jr. He also wants to be a great explorer like Muntz. At the turn of the picture, little Carl walked home with a balloon. When he passed by an uninhabited house, there was another child's voice. This is a tomboy girl named Ellie, who is also obsessed with Muntz's adventure story. The chattering Ellie used the weather vane on the top of the house as a joystick, treating the whole house as a big spaceship, trying to persuade Carl who was at a loss to join her plan and sit in a "flying house" Of course, the two children didn't fly, but fell. But Carl and Ellie got to know each other. Later, the camera showed us a montage of the two of them growing up, getting married and living together. Ellie made a city zoo, and Carl got a car to sell helium balloons. Both of them have dreamed of exploring the Paradise Falls in South America mentioned by Muntz all their lives, but they are always tired of running for their lives. Until Ellie died of illness, this wish failed to come true. After Ellie's death, Carl became withdrawn and unwilling to contact people. But to make matters worse, his house is right on the land planned by the government, where a skyscraper is about to be built. Carl, who didn't want to move out of here, became a "nail house", and the government sent people to prepare to send him to a nursing home, but just before those people came, Carl made a decision to leave here with his house and go to South America to realize his wife's dream! So we saw the classic scene in the trailer, colorful balloons dragging a whole house into the air. The picture of the flying house overlooking the earth in the air is very beautiful (which is the initial inspiration for the director to create this film). But what old Carl didn't expect was that he boarded an "illegal immigrant"-an 8-year-old Asian boy, Russell. This overly optimistic boy likes to talk fast. He joined the Wild Explorers Association. In order to become a senior member, he just needs to collect the last badge-the badge for helping the elderly. Unfortunately, the target he chose to help was eccentric Carl, who hated this chubby guy who always followed him. Carl thought of many ways to throw this annoying child from the flying house. But before he put it into practice, the flying house flew into a storm cloud, and many of Ali's relics fell. Carl was in a hurry to protect these things ... After Carl woke up, Ronaldinho, the "stowaway", told Carl that his GPS could help them fly to the "Wonderland Waterfall", but Carl still cut off some balloons and prepared to land and put Ronaldinho on the bus home. At this moment, an accident happened. The flying house that was close to the ground in the dense fog hit a boulder. Although the house dodged a bullet, Carl and Ronaldinho were thrown down. Seeing that the flying house was about to float away, Carl trapped it with a water pipe, and then the flying house dragged him until he stopped at the cliff. Only then did Carl find that the "Wonderland Waterfall" was in front of him (as shown on the right). From here, two people began to drag the flying house on foot (they later went into the jungle). That night, Ronaldinho talked to Carl about his hometown ... In the jungle, Carl and Ronaldinho met a new friend-a colorful bird with a long red beak (a new species discovered by explorer Muntz). This bird is really big and likes to eat chocolate. Ronaldinho named it Kevin. The bird likes Ronaldinho very much, but doesn't like Carl very much. Then they met their second friend, Doby, a talking dog, and said that it was not exact that the dog could talk. In fact, the collar worn around the dog's neck could express the dog's thoughts through human language. Then they came to a canyon, where several dogs appeared, two bulldogs and a Du Binquan (many other dogs appeared one after another, all of which were related to Muntz). Later, the father and son were taken to an airship, and they found that the owner of the airship was actually the explorer Charles Muntz. His purpose was to catch the big bird and prove himself. Knowing that Muntz would do anything to achieve his goal, the father and son fled first. When he put the big bird home, Muntz arrived and took the big bird away ... Then, father and son fought with Muntz to save the big bird. But Muntz released the plane from the airship and interfered with the flying house ... After the fight, both Muntz and the flying house fell into the clouds. After saying goodbye to the big bird, the father and the big dog drove Muntz's airship back to the city, and Ronaldinho also won a badge awarded by Carl. The three "people" became inseparable friends and lived a happy and comfortable life (as Ronaldinho described when talking to Carl about his family). And their flying house finally floated alone with the balloon on the edge of the fairyland waterfall in the "Pingdingshan vein" (while Muntz's whereabouts were unknown), realizing the lifelong dream of Ellie and Carl.
