[Netflix] Antlers Boy - A Fantasy Fairy Tale About Family, Adventure

Image source: Netflix

One of my favorite films I saw recently. The content of the story is deep and not too dull. The worldview created by the author echoes the current society and is close to current affairs.

This is an adaptation of the American DC comics. After investigation, the original comic style was very dark and bloody, but through this cooperation with Netflix, the script was re-created, and the original work was also involved. I believe that the author ultimately wants to express the same purpose. But we can see the world in a warmer light.

Every episode will be interspersed with the storyteller's speech. Although the reality is cruel, the storyteller's words tell us not to give up hope for this world. Through Gus's point of view, he said, "You all think I'm wasting time and you all give up, but you can't force me to give up like you do."

The following uses the broken experience of each episode, plus the particularly impressive content experience to share!


"Episode 1" leaves the depths of the forest

Because it is so beautiful, I watched it twice, with Chinese and English subtitles respectively. The second time I watched it, I found many details that I didn't notice at first.
For example, when the doctor first appeared, the TV at the doctor's house was an American football game, which was later called "big man" by sweet tooth; when Gus kept asking who Papa's mother and father were, Papa's father said "too hard to answer", watch You will know later, who is the mother of the little boy? How can this be explained?
And when the "Pink Ribbon" appeared on the walls of Yellowstone Park, Papa said "He marked us", which echoed the hiding place of the half-human behind. "The Last Human" uses this pink ribbon as a note.
The Antler Boy, as the name suggests, is a half-human combined with "deer". Anyone who sees it will say that this is too special. What is the significance of deer in this film? The deer always appears to help the hero at different times, and the hero seems to have his own unclear abilities.

In short, the first episode is not sloppy, and briefly introduces the background and ins and outs of this story!

At the end of the first episode, sweet tooth and big man embark on a journey together, with the vast scenery of New Zealand, with background music, and the story begins like this!

"Episode 2" Sorry so many people died

"You can't know the gus's story without knowing Aimee's too. The end of the world's got a funny way of making connections." The story is made up of three lines intertwined, and the three lines are not messy, and the audience can clearly distinguish between each line story.

The most interesting thing about the second episode is that Aimee was originally an ordinary office worker, just like the people you and I will meet next to you. He has no passion for life and just lives his life every day, but when the epidemic came, he suddenly Discover what kind of "connection" you should have with the world.
When narrating Aimee, there is an interesting scene. Because of the epidemic, the city is all depressed, and the animals in the zoo are liberated because they are unmanaged. Aimee stands in the middle of the road and feels the elephants whizzing by, but she chooses to enter the zoo. If human civilization includes domesticated animals, in this epidemic period, we can only support ourselves.


"Episode 3" Strange Deer Affair

"Great leaders are created in the most unexpected of places. Some are born to follow ,and some are born to lead." The third episode introduces the Animal Army, their stronghold is the "playground", which is really quite interesting Setting, after all, this is a world described from the perspective of children and teenagers. It is quite reasonable to set up these animal armies composed of child corps in the playground.

This episode also mentions this line of the doctor's story. There are fewer and fewer people in the community. The celebration of survival seems to be positive. In fact, people are suspicious of each other. If someone in the community is found to be infected, they will use the most extreme The method of setting fire to burn people and houses, and everyone will start singing to celebrate each other's great friendship. When we become adults, we face difficulties in the most brutal way.


"Episode 4" Secret Sauce

"Hybrids are how the earth survives. But once kids like you were born, the earth could start. You can live without taking. You can keep the earth to heal alive." The most beautiful gift to save the dying earth.
When I saw this, I suddenly thought, why in today's society, so many people believe in "false information", why so many young people are deceived by untrue information. I think when there is nothing to trust in the world, these messages are more likely to take root in people's hearts, and they prefer to believe what they believe.

When the little bear was betrayed by the team members, I watched TV and my heart was broken, but when she embarked on an adventure with big man and sweet tooth, I will definitely be the founder and will not be defeated. . "Sometimes our families end up looking nothing like we though they would." Recommended background music for episode 4:
