Horton (voiced by Jim Carrey), an innocent and lovely elephant in the forest, enjoys a carefree life happily every day. But suddenly one day, an amazing discovery completely changed its life, even its lovely image in the eyes of all animals.

The residents of "Nobody Town" live a comfortable life on a tiny floating dust. Suddenly one day, they were hit by a fruit, and the whole "small world" was thrown into the sky and floated on a pink alfalfa flower. And the tiny cry for help from this "tiny world" was actually heard by the fat elephant Horton. Therefore, Horton is convinced that there is life in this "little dust" and has an interesting communication with the "mayor" (voiced by Steve Carel) in the small world "nameless town" in his own way. In order to save the residents of this tiny world in the dust, Horton decided to risk being laughed at by all animals, stare at the notoriety of "paranoid patients" and send "Nobody Town" back to their world. ...

However, Horton's rescue journey was not smooth sailing: evil geographical environment, vultures full of bad water ... the danger index of his adventure journey has been increasing. ...

Life is life, big or small. A very imaginative elephant, named Horton, heard a faint cry for help from a dust floating in the air in a very accidental situation. He suspects that it, like the mysterious universe, has life on this dust. However, Horton didn't realize at that time that there was a city named "Nobody Town" hidden in the dust, and there were tiny "Nobody" who obeyed the leadership of the "Mayor" ... Although all the neighbors living around Horton laughed at him and regarded him as a mental illness, Horton decided to save these lives as big as spots.

Horton's first problem is to find a suitable place for the residents of Nobody Town. Based on his motto-elephant loyalty is always 100%, and his honest and sincere determination, Horton will never give up until he reaches his goal. [Edit this paragraph] The theme of the film review is Who Horton Heard. Before meeting Horton the elephant, the citizens of Nobody Town never knew that there was another world outside the "planet" where they lived, let alone that they were just a microorganism invisible to others. But who isn't? The earth we live in is just a dust in the vast universe, and the "anonymous" here is actually each of us. It's terrible to think so. Maybe one day we will be blown off track and into unknown territory. If there is no "elephant" to save us, our planet may disappear like fragile dust.

So, what this movie wants to tell us is that since everyone is anonymous and equal, how you treat a dust may be treated by others in the future, so please be kind to the "little people" around you! Like Horton the elephant, he never kills anything, including mosquitoes. So basically, he is an "icon", different from other animals in Nunu forest, so-called "Uncle Jesus" or "Sister Guanyin". Of course, this is just a joke and exaggeration. The story doesn't require everyone to become a monk, but at least, it wants children to understand three points: first, don't bully the weak, and have love to help others; At the same time, Horton and the "nobody" mayor who found each other existed were not trusted by others at first, but insisted on their own principles and beliefs and proved themselves right to others. This persistence in truth and unshakable freedom from external interference is also worth learning. Finally, Horton's promise to him is sincere and he will overcome all obstacles to complete it. "Elephants keep their word!" "This is one of Horton's mottos.

With a central idea rich in philosophy as the foundation, and an imaginative imagination, this cartoon by Dr. Seuss, a famous children's writer, is a very good children's story in itself. On this basis, comics highlight the personality of each character more clearly. Coupled with colorful pictures, funny animated images and the joining of five generations of comedy stars, it is difficult for people to put it down. If it has any shortcomings, it is a rather noisy child. Full of hilarity and revelry, not only the characters are talkative, but also the music is chaotic. If you are a quiet child who is afraid of noise, it may be too noisy. I hope to find a quiet place to stand for ten minutes after reading it, but even so, you will find that there are still more than a dozen Jim Carrey talking in your mind. . .

Animation always tells children something, but besides the meaning behind it, this lovely animation brings more funny characters and interesting conversations. Dr. Seuss's cartoon is just an outline. If you want to become an animation for one and a half hours, you need to add a lot of plots and dialogues. I must say that the screenwriter of this film has the same sense of humor as Seuss and is better at integrating modern dialogue into it, but he also wants to thank these talented comedians who dub. Animation modeling is very close to the actors themselves. Even some of their words seem to be specially designed for them, or their free play can't be found in Seuss's cartoons at all, but an interesting thing that adults often encounter in their daily spoken English or life. For example, the story of a mayor visiting a dentist actually comes from Jim Carrey's real experience. He said that the dentist always talks to you after filling you with instruments, but you obviously can't go on. ...

Under their interpretation, Horton and the mayor are no longer cartoon characters on paper, but Jim Carrey and Steve Karel. Especially Jim Carrey, although he can't see himself, has been replaced by Horton's own special effects to make expressions and movements. Like Jim Carrey, he has a changeable and exaggerated expression and rich body movements. I can firmly say that if someone else deserves him, Horton today is definitely not like this. He is an animated version of Jim Carrey, but his greatest feature is innocence. In addition, because of Jim Carrey's exaggerated performance, Horton's mouth was enlarged from childhood. These are the special adjustments made by the animators for Jim Carrey, which makes the two more integrated.

In the past, in people's eyes, the capital of Jim Carrey's comedy was body language, but this first dubbing proved that he could accurately create a comedy character only by voice. The biggest feature of his dubbing Xiao Dun (my nickname for Horton) is "optimism, naivety, nagging, vulnerability and always feeling good about himself", and these are also the sources of Xiao Dun's jokes. Just like Jim Carrey's role in the past, he has endless lines, sentence by sentence seems to have no need to breathe, he often talks to himself, and his inner activities are rich, like living in his own world. Crazy, noisy and sad, Jim Carrey is still a clown that people miss very much. Like every comedian, he conquered audiences everywhere with his unique humor, but this time the difference is that he is kind and has no practical jokes.

First of all, I want to introduce a guy named Xiao Dun. He looks like a rubber toy. His body and ears are very elastic and can move freely. He likes to jump when he is happy. He has a lot of ideas about himself, works with principles and is a natural optimist. In his eyes, he never fails. Even in times of crisis, he never forgets to look on the bright side, telling a joke to comfort himself from time to time. Xiao dun works as a teacher in Nunu forest to teach small animals. He is young and patient with children. His best skill is to turn his two big ears into swimming caps, straw hats, top hats and other hats to buckle on his head. Another special function is that his hearing is particularly sensitive. Even if he can't see, he can hear a cry in the dust on a small flower and never doubt his hearing or IQ. And unlike others, Xiao Dun never felt like a heavy guy, but as he said, "I'm as light as a feather and as moving as a rabbit." He felt that he was no different from those mice and kittens. So even if he met a small wooden bridge on the cliff, he did not hesitate to believe that he would not trample it down. "I 100% reliable" is his motto. No matter what happens, he will never break his promise or leave his friends behind. But he is actually very timid, whether it is a kangaroo or an eagle, or even a monkey can scare him. He won't resist, he will only dodge or run for his life, but he will never give in. At this point, this behemoth is really no different from a kitten or a mouse. What should I do when I am in danger? He is good at "emptying", that is, imagining himself as a "Japanese ninja" or "China Shaolin", and killing the enemy with three strikes against five divisions and two divisions, but just thinking about it, he turned around and ran away. Little Dunn is the cutest elephant I have ever seen in the world.

Little Dunn is the soul of the whole movie. In addition to Jim Carrey's perfect voice, animators also contributed. Many times, the audience will be amused by his changeable expressions and movements. In my opinion, Xiao Dun's eyes are the most deadly weapon. His whole expression is basically presented through the change of eyes, with a face of helplessness-_ ||, a face of excitement *0*, and various glances > _ & lt0_0. The ever-changing expression makes the elephant look so lively, completely getting rid of the stable and quiet characteristics of the past, and many expressions completely imitate the appearance of Jim Carrey, which reminds people of him when they see the elephant. Although Jim Carrey is funny and even handsome, few people describe him as cute. After all, he is 46 years old, but in this film, he became a "child" in voice, and then changed into a little face, which is completely cute. I believe that children or mm will have the impulse to pinch his elephant face when they see it.

Mayor Steve Karel is relatively less ridiculous and exaggerated. He is a family figure. It seems that raising children is more important than being a mayor. Because he has 96 daughters, a son and, of course, a wife to support. The noise explodes every day. The most terrible thing is that the mayor is poor. There is only one toilet, one bedroom and a dining table at home, which shows the degree of crowding (warning: those comrades who don't give up until they have a son will have such a tragic end if they don't know how to exercise restraint). However, it also trained him to talk to 97 people at the same time and lift 97 glasses of water at the same time. Of course, the mayor is not a celebrator. Every day, he has to say a lot to discipline his children, deal with the heavy work at work and talk to the elephant god. Too busy at home and abroad, he still has time to raise fish without vomiting blood. It's amazing. He is a diligent and responsible good mayor and father. Steve Karel's mouth is not lost to Jim Carrey, and he is familiar with his parents and protagonists. Even if it can't bring a lot of sparks to the film like Jim Carrey, it will at least help two generations of "false gods" cooperate for the first time. The "dialogue" between them is basically the biggest attraction to attract adult audiences.

However, the only son of the mayor is still a "strange child". He doesn't talk at ordinary times, but he has his own world to create novel musical instruments and express his ideas with music. In Dr. Seuss's cartoons, there are often some freaks among children, but they are often not bad children, and may even perform unexpectedly at critical moments. In the interview, Jim Carrey also said that he was actually a strange child. It is precisely because of my withdrawn personality that I have developed a set of changeable expressions and entertained myself at home alone. This is also the reason why he was attracted by the theme of Dr. Seuss's cartoon adaptation film twice. He said that there are all kinds of characters in Seuss's works, and his rich imagination and even exaggeration will always be the greatest advantage of his works.

But didn't you say there were five generations of comedians involved? If Jim Carrey and Steve Karel are the elders of the first generation and the second generation respectively, then will arnett and my poehler (the mayor's wife) are excellent "supporting actors" who have often been active in comedies in recent years (once appeared together in Blade of Glory), which can be regarded as the third generation. The fourth generation is naturally seth rogen, a failed man. He ran away and became popular last year because he got someone pregnant (he voiced Little Blue Mouse, was Denton's good friend, and loved cookies bigger than himself). Josh flitter, a 14-year-old fat man who switched from TV to big screen (a small animal in plush ball makeup, like a woodchuck), is a fifth-generation comic child star, from whom we can already see the shadow of Jack Black in the future. An animated cartoon can have so many comedy stars to help out, which is believed to be very attractive to the audience. Last year's "Little Mouse" had a good reputation, but the star effect was low, so the box office appeal was relatively small. This movie has an advantage similar to Shrek. The key is to see if parents and children can accept Jim Carrey and Uncle Steve Carey's quick-talking humor. Jim Carrey, in particular, has a distinctive style, and it may be difficult for people who didn't like him before to fall in love with this film.

In addition, many animals in the film are made into plush toys, which are not only rich in hair and colorful in fur, but also lifelike, just like moving a toy store in the jungle. Cute is cute, but a little lacking in creativity. Villains are still as bad as ordinary comics. The bitter kangaroo mother not only misbehaves her son, but also loves to bully others. She represents those stubborn parents who are strong and self-righteous, and belongs to the type that annoys children and makes parents feel ashamed. In particular, the practice of "children teach themselves at home, keep away from other children and be afraid of being polluted by the outside world" advocated by her is actually very common among American parents. Many children teach themselves at home, which seriously affects their normal development and emotional intelligence training. The film made a bitter satire on this practice.

As the first blockbuster in 2008, I think the box office should be higher than 1 10,000 BC, but the biggest winner this year is probably the panda.

At the premiere of the film, the reporters' microphones were covered with many pink flowers with dust in the film, as well as the huge megaphone of the "dialogue" between the unknown mayor and Xiaodun in the film, laying an orange carpet. Jim Carrey's performance at the film conference gave me a lot of points. He is not the kind of star who leaves after answering questions, but patiently signs the reporter's name and continues to answer questions. He doesn't care about being surrounded by layers or shaking hands. Many people came forward to express their love for him, and he thanked him politely. He seems to enjoy everyone's worship. He has no big-name star shelf at all, and is very kind and friendly. And he is actually very funny in private, but unlike Stephen Chow's deadpan, Jim Carrey always smiles and has a rich expression. When Jim Carrey and Steve Carey sit together, they can feel that they are both modest, but Steve Carey obviously lacks Carey's confidence and informality, perhaps because of his junior qualifications, he is very cautious and restrained. [Edit this paragraph] Regarding the music at the end of the film, I believe everyone is deeply impressed by the ending song.

The ending song is a cover of the film. The original song is called "I can't resist this feeling", and the Chinese name is "I can't resist the feeling". It is a lyric song of the three-week champion of rock group REO Speedwagon 1985, and a prime minister's love for ancient music.

The lyrics are also intact, exactly the same as in the film, both in Chinese and English. The following are the lyrics of the lyric song "Can't Fight This Feeling":

I can't resist this feeling anymore.

However, I am still afraid to let it flow away.

What is friendship at first?

Become stronger

I just wish I had the strength to make it show.

I told myself that I couldn't go on forever.

I said I had no reason to be afraid.

Because when we are together, I feel very safe.

You gave me direction in my life,

You make everything so clear.

Even when I wander

I'll watch you.

You are a candle in the wind.

On a cold and dark winter night

I'm closer than I thought

I can't resist this feeling anymore.

I have forgotten what I fought for in the first place.

It's time to dock this ship.

Throw away the oars, forever

Because I can't resist this feeling anymore.

I have forgotten what I fought for in the first place.

If I have to crawl on the floor

Rush into your door

Baby, I can't resist this feeling anymore.

Since I met you, my life has been like a whirlwind.

I've been beating around the bush in my head.

Girl, I always seem to follow you.

Because you took me to those places.

I know I'll never find it

Even when I wander

I'll watch you.

You are a candle in the wind.

On a cold and dark winter night

I'm closer than I thought

I can't resist this feeling anymore.

I have forgotten what I fought for in the first place.

It's time to dock this ship.

Throw away the oars, forever

Because I can't resist this feeling anymore.

I have forgotten what I fought for in the first place.

If I have to crawl on the floor

Rush into your door

Baby, I can't resist this feeling anymore.

Chinese translation:

This feeling is irresistible.

I can't hold back this feeling any longer.

But I still dare not show it.

This feeling begins when friendship becomes stronger.

I wish I had the ability to tell you.

I told myself I couldn't do this forever.

But my worry is unreasonable.

Because when we are together, I feel very comfortable.

You gave me direction in my life.

You made everything clear.

Even if I wander outside

I managed to meet you.

You are a candle in the wind.

On that cold and dark winter night

I am closer to you than I thought.

I can't hold back this feeling any longer.

I have forgotten what I am resisting.

It's time for the ship to dock.

Throw away the oars forever.

Because I can't control this feeling anymore.

I have forgotten what I am resisting.

If I have to crawl on the ground

Go through your gate

Honey, I can't hold back this feeling any longer.

My life has been like a whirlwind since I met you.

My heart has been spinning.

It seems that I will follow you forever.

Because you took me there.

Where I'll never find it.
