131飞屋环游记观后感
全文共 2105 字
+ 加入清单《飞屋环游记》从故事资料,到音乐配器,到动漫人物设计精巧,到画面效果感官,到艺术性和观赏性,它的确就是一部不朽的作品,历史会验证的。
影片虽就是动画片,动画片不惟属孩童,这个影片《飞屋环游记》也唤醒了老年人的喜好,动画片《飞屋环游记》实属老少皆宜啊!个人观点。
《飞屋环游记》就就是一部讲述人生和梦想的伟大电影!那里面有感人的痛苦,也有感人的幸福!
(一)、人生有多少遗憾能够挽留
影片开头有一段被誉为“电影历史上最最甜蜜,最最让人伤感的4分半钟”,就在4分半钟淡淡的音乐中,展示了一对爱侣从结合到相依为命,最后一人西去一人垂泪的整个人生。几十年人生中的喜怒哀乐,全部浓缩在这短短的没有对白的4分半钟内。这时,你会觉得任何对白都就是剩余,有什么东西让你沉默不语,让你轻轻地流泪?
或许就是最忠贞的坚持,最纯真的完美,最温馨的甜蜜,最终都敌但就是生死离别。陪你慢慢变老就是最浪漫的幸福,而你离去,就是最心酸的无奈!
那就是一种让人心痛的浪漫,迷人而又酸楚,温馨的感情无法跨越生死。以前的梦想还只就是梦想,昔日的承诺无法再兑现,最大的遗憾就就是这个遗憾已无法挽留!那里最触动我们内心的情怀就就是无法挽留的遗憾,时光无法挽留,生命无法挽留,此时此刻,我们转脸过去,无来由默默垂泪!
我们短短一生将会有多少遗憾。或许终其一生你都会对此耿耿于怀;谁会纯真地老去,谁能甜蜜地死去,珍惜此刻,说不定很久以后,你有一个无奈的遗憾只就是没跟某个人一齐看过某部电影而已!
(二)、只要足够的气球就能够让你飞翔天际
我们总无法在生活的现实中放纵自由,却总无可救药地向往那完美的未知世界。即使那个世界未知且险阻重重,我们盲目地执着,这就是一种天生的本能。那个世界我们定义为梦想。
那个追寻的过程却经常称为飞翔!
飞翔,多完美的词语,那似乎就是自由的终极追求。但我们飞翔的动力就是什么?搞笑的就是,恰恰就就是梦想本身,你有一个梦想就有一个气球,你有一万个梦想就有一万个气球。你的气球足够多,就有足够的动力升腾空中,遨游飞翔!
我们常常迫于生活的重压,又没有足够的气球作为动力。只能匍匐于重压之下,艰难喘气,抬头仰望天上的白云和飞鸟!
78岁卡尔用一生的梦想来储存他的气球,期间岁月逝去,爱人离去,几乎以为他的梦想再也无法实现了。但他为信守对爱的承诺,终能带着他与艾利打造的房屋一飞冲天!那千万个色彩华丽的气球啊,就是飞翔于空中的信念,永不坠地的真爱。这不需要疯狂的想象力,只需要不放下的决心。
那一刻我们的心也随着升腾起来,随着万千气球飘然而悠然掠过天宇,心灵随着视野提升,你会觉得今后的世界会就是崭新的完美!梦想就是你飞翔的翅膀,我们只需要足够的气球!
(三)、承诺就是一种沉重的职责
飞翔就是一种自由的放纵,卡尔老先生为什么非得固执带上他的老房子一齐飞天?
我的答案就是他不得不承担一些东西上路,这种东西他无法割舍,不愿放下,那种东西叫做职责。
对于卡尔老先生来说,那种职责就就是爱的承诺。那个房间就是他与艾利一齐打造的,放下了它,不仅仅仅就是抹去回忆那么简单,对他来说等同于背叛。
我想这个房子已成了卡尔隔绝外界的堡垒,他要与它生死与共,房地产商休想夺去,任何试图进入的人也视为敌人。他一个人躲进里面,甜蜜地回忆,痛苦地怀念,虽然想起来让人觉得悲苦,这一切已成为他生活的好处。
当我们看见卡尔艰难地拉动房子缓行时,当我们看到卡尔躲进房子沉默地回忆时,总不知不觉被感动得百感交集。
职责给你带来了前行的压力,但这种压力恰恰就是我们需要的。压力有时就就是你坚持某件事的动因。不就是有了承诺,不就是有了职责,我们还有信念坚持到最后吗!
我们最难得的,就是如何坚持?
(四)、放下才能简单地开始
《飞屋》最让我感动的就是这一段:
邪恶的探险家逼迫卡尔放下大鸟,应对艰难的选取,他毫不犹豫地扑向着了火的屋子,几乎无助地抢救自我的房屋。大鸟被捉,应对小胖的责备离去,卡尔艰难拉动屋子到瀑布边,独自回到自我的房屋,默默地回忆,茫茫然间他又似乎回到了从前的完美时光,但现实又就是如此的悲呛时刻!我几乎噎得喘但就是气来。
此时的卡尔,已几乎被逼迫到无可挽回的绝境,自我对小胖的承诺无法信守,生活完美的东西已经没了,仅仅残存的一些记忆能让他活下去吗?我担心下一步他会从仙境瀑布那里跳下,给自我的回忆来个终结。编剧如果做那样就太残酷了!
幸好这就是一部迪斯尼皮克斯出品的动画片,永远不会抹杀生活的用心好处,虽然残酷能够让人震撼深思,但温馨的完美同样有动人心魄的力量。卡尔看到了逝去妻子的叮嘱,顿悟生活存在的完美好处,简单抛弃飞屋的家具,重新上路!
虽然你能够说这段处理太过峰回路转及俗套,但我们能够这样看它的象征好处:生活的现实就就是需要你抛弃过多的疑虑和负担才能简单上路的,你愿随心飞翔,需有坚持,有担当,也需有一颗能放下的心!
有多少梦想能够随心飞翔。
虽然有时私下承认看动画片感动落泪就是一件有些丢人的事,但此刻才发觉其实这就是一件值得自豪的事。皮克斯以它清澈明亮的眼睛,透彻了我们心底的纯净和完美,我们被他感动,只因我们对某些东西存在期盼!
这次它用万千的气球带我们飞翔,一如既往的,我也期盼下一次的感动!

篇1:爱与梦飞行之飞屋环游记观后感
全文共 1620 字
+ 加入清单ok,首先承认我食言了——我又看3D了。我是一个好了伤疤忘了疼的人,看《冰川时代3》时所遭受的肉体痛苦实在是抵不过皮克斯动画的诱惑,好在这次的眼镜制作更粗糙一些,但却很好地照顾了我肥大的头颅,我不用像忍受紧箍咒一样忍受它了。而且这次在传奇时代影城享受的据说是国内首套的3D巨幕设备,果然画面尺寸能够达到普通2D电影的标准,而且亮度和色彩的还原度都几近完美。这里的原理有点复杂,我就不细说了,感兴趣的可以上网查一下,反正以后要看3D,还是去看巨幕吧。遗憾的是作为皮克斯首部3D电影,《飞屋环游记》的表现手法完全没有3D化,场景和动作设计基本上和看2D无异,后来我甚至忘记了这是一部3D电影
我不知道如果我以前没看过《瓦力》的话,我会被这部电影折服到什么程度,以一个普通人做动画片主角是需要勇气的,通篇弥漫着淡淡的忧伤和梦想的光辉,朴实隽永的台词,天马行空的想象力,妙趣横生的人物形象,反正什么样的溢美之词用在这电影上似乎都不会显得过分,这实在是一部在技术上很成熟的作品。但有了《瓦力》的珠玉在前,《飞屋环游记》就显出了几分匠气和刻意,有点像《读者文摘》上构思巧妙语言精美但有点主题先行感情廉价的美文,你会有点感动,但不会被震撼,它没有《瓦力》那样不着痕迹的浑然天成和悲天悯人的终极情怀。
之前看很多人把《飞屋》分析为一部励志的电影,它鼓励人勇敢地去实现梦想,追逐梦想永远不要嫌太晚……但在我看来,这电影的主题远不是那么乐观的,它更重要的意义在于展现一种梦想之于人的一种有心无力的无奈,以及无奈之下的放弃。
开篇的伤感让人有点猝不及防,现实是梦想的天敌,拖着梦想的尾巴,人的一生如流星般划过,人所能做的,只有靠回忆的余温来烘烤寂寞的心灵。老卡尔谨慎地守候着与妻子共同拥有的一切,那所已经成为钉子户的老房子,门前的邮筒,还有妻子的照片,老旧的探险日记……这都是影片中反复讲述的情节。而他获得新生的第一步,就是从离开那个那片和妻子共同用爱浇灌的土地飞上天空的那一刻开始的。
影片的英文原名是《UP》,也就是向上,升起的意思,但老卡尔的每次up,都是以放弃为代价的。危急时刻,他终于把曾经和妻子共同拥有的一切抛到了空中,才让飞屋重新飞升,才救下了自己的新伙伴小罗。最后,他把飞屋留在了曾经魂牵梦萦的仙境瀑布,自己用冒险精神号飞船开了一间冰激凌店,登上冒险精神号,去仙境瀑布探险,这是他从少年时就一直在小心呵护着的梦想,而这一切都在他放弃对逝去的爱无谓的守候之后实现的,而将飞屋留在那个梦想之地,也算是对抱憾的妻子的一份补偿和成全。
其实在我看来,这就是一部关注老年人心态和生存状况的影片,而本片在美国的广受欢迎,也是因为这一立意。我发现美国人对于衰老和疾病这一类的社会话题所表现出的敏感超出我的想象。在今年美国FOX电视台的舞蹈选秀节目《舞林争霸》(《so you think you can dance》)中,编舞为一对选手编的现代舞是表现乳腺癌患者的,没想到到最后点评的时候,评委们所关注的都不是选手发挥的水平了,而都在为这个主题而感慨,直到最后评委选手都泣不成声。去年也有一支舞有同样效果,那就是现代舞女皇Mia Michaels编的献给自己父亲的一支舞,现场也是一片唏嘘。其实这些情绪在中国人看来可能很夸张,但如果你想到有一天如果这些境遇会成为你不得不面对的事实,衰老、疾病、孤独,可能在死亡降临的时候你的所有梦想都未及实现,也许就难免不兔死狐悲了。
我想中国人是不愿意也不习惯于从这样的电影中去体会和思考这样的悲观,只能把《飞屋》当作一个励志电影来看,当然这也挺好,但我觉得这电影是没有仅仅停留在这个层次上的。
其他的就是动画片一些常规的成分了,追逐打闹什么的,也都在水准之内,不会让观众失望,估计人人都会和我一样爱上那个小胖子的。但对于一部动画片来说,主题还是太沉重了,所以《飞屋环游记》在国内的票房肯定没法和《冰川3》相比,小孩子未必会觉得足够有趣。
篇2:飞屋环游记观后感
全文共 1098 字
+ 加入清单这天我在网上看了一部《飞屋环游记》的电影。
这部电影讲了一个小男孩罗素和一个老爷爷卡尔的历险故事。卡尔就是个不怎麽爱说话的男孩,他总就是牵着气球边走路边幻想着历险,一天他遇到了活泼可爱的女孩艾丽,两个人有着共同的兴趣爱好,之后他们结婚了,过上了幸福的生活。镜头一闪他们变老了,白发苍苍的艾丽得了重病,躺在病床上交给了卡尔老爷爷一本书,书上画着一幅她一向梦想去探险的地方“仙境瀑布”,然后就死去了。
卡尔老爷爷每一天孤单的守着他心爱的小屋。一天,坐在沙发上的卡尔老爷爷听到门外有挖土机的声音,打开门一看,原先就是开发商要开发房屋,准备拆他的小屋,老爷爷说:“我没有死,就别想拆我的小屋。”之后他收到了养老院的一封信,信中说要接他去养老院。过了一会儿,有人敲门,他打开门一看,原先就是一个名叫罗素的小男孩,他说要帮忙老人。老爷爷说:“我不需要帮忙”,就关门了。老爷爷想了想,打开门说每晚都有一种巨鸟去偷吃他的玫瑰花,只要拍三下手就出来。小罗素听了老爷爷的话,之后就跑去找巨鸟了。十分钟以后,养老院的人来接他,老爷爷舍不得离开心爱的小屋。这时,养老院的人见烟筒里冒出好几万个气球来,把房子带上了天空。老爷爷和小屋飞起来了,房子起飞还没有多久,他又听到了敲门声,原先就是小罗素站在小屋的走廊上,告诉老爷爷他找到了那只巨鸟。于就是老爷爷和小罗素就踏上了去“仙境瀑布”的探险之路。
他们走啊走啊,在路上遇到了小罗素找的那只巨鸟,小罗素给它起了个名字叫凯文,和他们一齐向前走。在路上,他们又遇到了一些狗,它们会说话,都就是坏的,它们有一个坏主人。其中一个叫豆豆,它背叛了它的坏主人,管老爷爷叫主人,也跟着老爷爷他们一齐走。走着走着,遇见了狗的坏主人,他假装就是一个好人,把老爷爷带到了他的家,看到他家里有很多动物的骨架,有一个十分像凯文,这时坏主人看见凯文正在老爷爷家的房顶上,要抓住它。老爷爷就明白了他就是个坏人,就赶紧逃了出去,继续走。坏主人就让他的坏狗追他们,但就是只把凯文追上了,就把它关起来开飞机带走了。最后经过大家的努力最后救出了凯文。老爷爷为了保护大家放下了拥有一辈子回忆的小屋,和小罗素、逗逗回到了城市里,幸福的生活在一齐。而谁也没有想到小屋正落在了艾丽梦想中的“仙境瀑布”旁……
我最喜欢电影里面的凯文,它就是一只大玉鸟,羽毛又多又美丽,凯文最爱吃的和最开心的事就就是吃巧克力,它还爱啄气球呢!豆豆最开心的事,就就是玩气球了。
这就是一部很感动的电影,卡尔老爷爷为了实现妻子的梦想,经过不懈的努力最后完成了妻子的梦想。但就是,如果没有豆豆、凯文和罗素的帮忙,仅依靠卡尔老爷爷自我的力量就是不可能成功的。
篇3:动画片飞屋环游记观后感
全文共 1460 字
+ 加入清单78岁的老人卡尔,与亡妻艾丽自童年相识,一直相亲相爱。他们有共同的梦想——去位于南美洲的天堂瀑布探险。可惜由于一直为生计奔波,直到爱妻去世,这也只是一个梦想。
城市每天都发生着变化,开发商要收购卡尔家所在的地皮,卡尔因不肯将房子出卖而屡次与开发商发生冲突,矛盾不断被激化,最终,卡尔被要求前往居住在老人之家。
卡尔舍不得和艾丽一共建造并生活过的老房子,在当天夜里下定决心,要带着老房子飞向蓝天,目标天堂瀑布……
“飞屋环游记”是2010年奥斯卡最佳动画长片奖的获奖作品。它讲述了一个重建自我的故事。
艾丽与卡尔二人没有孩子,所以艾丽早亡,留给卡尔的,只有两人的房子以及几十年的回忆。卡尔在回忆中生活,并逐渐衰老。若不是要被迫离开老房子,卡尔也许很快就会孤独而平静的死去。从这个角度讲,与开发商的冲突,又在某种程度上成全了卡尔,让他义无反顾带着老房子起飞,去实现他与艾丽多年的梦想。
飞翔,其实就是这么简单。却迟到了几十年。
朋友讲了个故事,说有两个和尚见面了,闲聊中发现,两人都想去南海。二人决定分头实现这一共同目标。其中一个和尚开始造大船,并准备各种所需,一晃就是两年。两年后,另一个和尚从南海回来了,给还在做准备工作的和尚讲述各种见闻。讲的人眉飞色舞,听的人呆住了。
“你没有钱,没有行李,没有食物,什么都没有,你怎么可能去了南海?你怎么去的?”
“用我的双脚,加手中的钵盂。”
多少年来,艾丽与卡尔为生活所困,对梦想望而却步,却原来,到天堂瀑布可以很简单。我们不需要过多的金钱,不需要豪华的交通设施,只要用一晚上的时间来吹气球,便可以带着我们的房子一飞冲天!
回首儿童时代,我们都曾做过飞翔的梦。
西方世界的孩子比我们的孩子更幸福,他们会相信圣诞老人;也会相信自己是天使曾送给爸爸妈妈的一颗爱的种子,在阳光下发芽、长大。相对来说,我们的孩子们更早的被世俗所污染,在他们很小的时候就知道神话都是“骗人的”,童话都是“瞎编的”。孩子们心灵的翅膀,早已被唯物主义理论所折断,永远不可能飞翔了。
卡尔的倔强,拯救了老房子。但是他依然生活在失去爱妻的痛苦中。他不喜欢那个名叫罗素的同行男孩,不喜欢罗素捡来的巨鸟和那只佩戴着高科技翻译器的狗。他只想带着房子靠近天堂瀑布,哪怕不得不拖着房子一步一步走过去。
卡尔和罗素拖着房子前行的狼狈局面就像是蜗牛。在卡尔为了老房子而迈向梦想的途中,老房子成为了他新的绊脚石。很多现代人都有这样的负担,即使再艰难,也要拖着虚无的包袱走下去。或许有人说,这老房子是卡尔和艾丽爱情的象征,梦想的象征,是不一样的。其实所谓的象征,都是让人看的。卡尔和艾丽几十年的爱情和梦想早已不需要这些没有实际意义的象征。房子本就是房子,并不是建好就有意义的,所谓的意义,只是人们赋予它的。
曾经有一个在杭州买了房子的外地人好意劝我也在杭州买房。我说我暂无打算。她说,“你没有房子,你就没有家。”我笑了。“英语中,房子是house,家是home,不一样的。”卡尔的老房子也同样如此。应该说,到卡尔认识到罗素他们对于自己的重要性,最终为了救罗素而放弃了老房子,卡尔完成了一次重生,他重新找到了生命的意义。艾丽已经去世,卡尔要做的不是在凭吊中等死,而是心中装着艾丽,快乐健康的生活下去。
值得一提的,是在卡尔拖着老房子前行时,处处为老房子所困,几乎永远失去将老房子带到天堂瀑布的机会;而在卡尔放弃老房子之后,老房子却不偏不倚,刚好落在了天堂瀑布的平顶之上。就像卡尔与艾丽一直梦想的那样。
只有放开怀抱,才能拥抱世界。
实现梦想、获得幸福,就是这么简单。

篇5:西游记之大闹天宫观后感
全文共 838 字
+ 加入清单今天,我观看了《大闹天宫》,里面的故事十分有趣,就让我来给你讲一讲吧!
猴王孙悟空在花果山水帘洞过着自由自在的生活。因拿了龙王的镇海之宝—如意金箍棒做为自己的武器,被龙王告上天庭。太白金星想了一计:将孙悟空骗上天庭。明为封了一个弼马温--一个管理喂养天马的小官。暗中则压制他。孙悟空去到天庭,明白了,打烂了了御马监,出了南天门,回到花果山,自封“齐天大圣”。玉帝很愤怒,于是命李天王带领天兵天将捉拿孙悟空。然后,在花果山的上空,展开了一场激烈的战斗。孙悟空奋勇杀敌,众天神纷纷战败。哪吒出战费了九牛二虎之力也敌不过他。天王没有办法,就逃回天庭,向玉帝请求增兵。于是,玉帝接受太白金星的计谋,假意封孙悟空为齐天大圣,并将蟠桃圆交他掌管,想把他骗来,困在天上。孙悟空听说蟠桃园中的仙桃非常稀罕,而且只许在蟠桃会上享用。孙悟空没想,就自各儿挑选个大的仙桃,饱餐了一顿。正值王母寿辰,七仙女奉命摘桃,来到桃园,惊动了正在酣睡的孙悟空。经过盘问仙女,孙悟空才得知王母要设蟠桃宴,请了各路神仙,就是没请他他。孙悟空这才看透玉帝的阴谋,火冒三丈,不光大闹蟠桃宴,还喝了仙酒,并将所有仙酒仙菜席卷一空,装进乾坤袋,准备带回花果山给他的孩儿们。哪知酒醉,撞进太上老君的炼丹之地,将专供玉帝服用的金丹吃了个精光,这才返回花果山,与众猴孙大开仙酒会。玉帝和王母气得火冒三丈,立即命李天王带领十万天兵天将,兴事问罪。一场激战开始了,孙悟空与神通广大的二郎神斗了几百回合,不分胜负。最后,因遭到太上老君的暗算,不幸被擒。天神们无论用斧砍、火烧、箭射,都损伤不了孙悟空一根毫毛。玉帝又将孙悟空打入太上老君的炼丹。未想孙悟空并未烧死,他跳出丹炉,打上灵霄宝殿。一路上的天兵天将,望风披靡,玉帝狼狈而逃。猴王胜利了,回到花果山,重树齐天大圣旗幡,与猴孙们过着快乐的生活。
我最喜欢的片段是和二郎神打仗的时候,尤其是孙悟空变成一座寺庙的时候,十分有趣。你有没有喜欢的片段?
看了我的介绍你有没有对孙悟空多一点了解呢?
篇6:西游记观后感
全文共 696 字
+ 加入清单每次观看《西游记》时,总有不同的心情。它在四大名着中,是最生动活泼的,小时候的我读起它来总觉得既过瘾又有趣。但今时今日,不变的是那光怪陆离,色彩斑斓的神话世界,我的领悟却变了。
这是一部所有人都爱读的经典大作,每个人都能在解读它时获取不同的感觉和启示,有人喜欢它鲜明的人物个性;有人喜欢它瑰丽的整体形象;有人喜欢它活泼诙谐的对话旁白;有人还研究它的历史背景、社会现象。但在我看来,他那曲折的情节中暗藏着人们渴望而不可及的生活理想和人性追求,那就是——自由。
在经历了日复一日个性受约束的日子,廿一世纪的人们都格外向往自由,向往那个自由的化身:孙悟空。孙悟空破土而出,“不伏麒麟辖,不服凤凰管,又不服人间王位所约束”,闯龙宫,闹冥司,自花果山上目在称王。可以说已经达到人性摆脱一切束缚,彻底自由的状态。孙悟空其实就是自由的化身,他的品质中最突出的就是向往自由,他始终在追求自由,它的一切斗争也是为了争取自由。这样一个鲜活的形象给予了读者一种追求自由,追逐自由的力量和勇气。然而,每个人都明白,在现在,即使是将来,完全的自由终究是不可能的,人始终要受到这般那般的约束。尽管包围着我们的是个受约束的世界,但我们可以让内心尽量变得广阔而幽深,让它能够无边无际、包容天地。
然而,目前社会上还有许多人被一些价值不大的东西所束缚,却自得其乐,还觉得很满足。经过几百年的探索和发展,人们对物质需求已不再迫切,但对于精神自由的需求却无端被抹杀了。总之,我认为现代人最缺乏的就是一种开阔进取,寻找最大自由的精神。
在厉尽时间锤炼的《西游记》中,竟深深蕴含着新世纪人们最渴望的自由精神……我更明白为什么它能够传承至今了。

篇8:寻梦幻游记观后感800字
全文共 850 字
+ 加入清单今天,我看了一部叫做《寻梦环游记》的电影,受益匪浅。
故事主要讲了小男孩米格一心想成为音乐家,更希望自己能像偶像歌神德拉库斯一样,创造出打动人心的音乐。米格痴迷于音乐,无比渴望证明自己的音乐才能,却因为一系列的怪事误入亡灵世界。在那里,米格见到了自己已经离世的亲人们。他们都想把米格送回活人世界,并不让米格再碰音乐。为了寻找“歌神”德拉库斯。在途中,米格遇到了另一位乐手――埃克托,他曾经是德拉库斯的好朋友。最后,米格知道了事情的真相。德拉库斯为了霸占埃克托的作品杀害了埃克多,并唱了他生前写的《请记住我》而成名,还把埃克托的吉他也据为己有。埃克托才是自己的曾曾爷爷!在米格、埃克多和逝去的家人们地不懈努力下,他们战胜了德拉克斯。米格也重新回到了人间,完成了他的音乐梦。
这部影片让我感触最深的是埃克托和德拉克斯唱《请记住我》时倾入的不同感情、不同的“爱”。埃克多写这首歌是送给他的女儿可可的,倾入了满满的又浓又纯的父爱。他想向大家、可可传达的是――可可不要忘了我,不要忘记我对你的爱和思念,我是爱你的,虽然我必须离开你。埃克托唱出的是付出的爱。这种爱,无论两人相隔多远,分离多久,都是不会消失的。这便是真爱!
德拉库斯唱时倾入了什么样的感情呢?因为他没有像埃克托一样的经历,他不懂埃克托与家人的分离之痛,更不懂埃克托独自在外思念家人的心情……因为这一个个的不懂,他唱出的感觉与埃克托自然大不相同。他像是在对大家说:你们要记住我,你们要崇拜我,你们要迷恋我,你们要一直爱我,不能忘记我,我永远是我的……在这一个个“你们要……”中可以很明显的感觉出这是一种索取的爱,自私的“爱”,绝非真爱。这种爱是一方只付出,另一方只收获;这种爱,一拍即散,一分就离。
爱是什么?爱是不求回报的付出;爱是什么?爱是不求利益的给予。就像“朋友”的“朋”,它是两个一模一样的“月”组成的,表示人与人之间要付出均等的“爱”,才能成为真正意义上的朋友或家人,互相付出,互相给予,才是爱的本质。
爱是什么?这部电影给了我们一个完美的答案。

+ 加入清单星期六,我去看了一部电影,名叫《寻梦环游记》。这部电影讲述的是喜欢音乐的米格,在亡灵节的才艺大赛上,他触动了歌神的吉他,不小心开启了通往亡灵世界的入口,从而开启了一段惊险刺激的旅行。
在我的想象中,亡灵世界应该是荒凉、黑暗的,到处阴森森的。这部电影打破了我的认知,原来亡灵世界也可以如此繁华,灯火辉煌。如烟如梦的场景,把我带入了一个全新的世界。
米格在亡灵世界时,误把歌神认成了自己的曾曾祖父。在流浪歌手埃克托与歌神的对质中,最后拆穿了心目中的歌神,拆穿了他欺世盗名的真面目。最后米格带着亡灵亲人对他的祝福和曾曾祖父对他的嘱托,返回了现实世界,米格用一首《请记住我》唤醒了他太奶奶心灵深处最柔软的回忆。
看到电影的结尾,我不禁潸然泪下,通过这部电影,我知道了死亡从来不是终点,而是另一个世界的起点,真正的亲情和梦想不会在连接两界的花瓣桥上消亡,不曾遗忘,我们就不曾分离。只有遗忘才是终极死亡,所以在爱的记忆消失前,请记住你最想拥抱的那个人。如果你想起谁,那你应该马上去拥抱他(她)!

“人生就像各种各样的朱古力,你永远不会知道那一块属于你。”阿甘母亲的这一句话,在影片的开头就用这句话给了我一个深刻的思考:每一个生命轨迹都在不同的地域存在着,而且是独一无二的存在着。
阿甘的生命乐章是不是就是根据这样的话,这样的教诲,而一步一步的走着不一样的人生道路?影片里的阿甘从智商只有75分而不得不进入特殊学校,到橄榄球健将,到越战英雄,到虾船船长,到跑遍美国??阿甘以先天缺陷的身躯,达到了许多智力健全的人也许终其一生也难以企及的高度。在他身上,我们看到了忠诚,守信,执着,友善这些人性中最优秀可贵的品质;看到了对生命的执着,对生活的希望,对信念的坚定,还有那平凡的生命里,突显的不平凡人生。这样的故事总是让我们感动,然后让我们难以忘记。
或许,在十年,二十年,甚至更久远以后,我们依然记得那个曾经智障却跑出不一样人生的阿甘。

一七年年底,电影院推出一部电影:《寻梦环游记》,听说是一部催泪电影,我也来到影院观看。
这部电影被评为年度最暖心的电影,在豆瓣中的评分奇迹般似的到了九点三……
这部电影的主人公是一位名叫米格的男孩,他很喜欢音乐,可他的祖母并不喜欢音乐,所以他都只能偷偷玩。他为了参加亡灵节的音乐会,来到德拉库斯的坟上,准备“借走”他的吉他。他拿到了吉他,可穿越到了亡灵世界,只有得到福福才能回到人间。他找到了自己的曾曾祖母,得到了她的祝福,可不能再碰音乐,他没抵挡住音乐的诱惑,又被送了回来,他要得到自己曾曾祖父:德拉库斯的祝福。经过一系列的事件后,他发现自己的曾曾祖父是艾克托。“请记住我!”这首歌并不是德拉库斯写的,而是艾克托写的。他为了让这一事实展现在人们面前,作了一系列的努力。最终,他的曾祖母:可可,快把曾曾祖父忘了,也就是曾曾祖父快走向终极死亡,他立即接受祝福回到家中,与曾祖母一同唱响“请记住我”这首歌,并将曾曾祖父的照片摆在了祭坛上,才使他没有走向终极死亡。
我这个坚强的人在快结尾时也情不自禁地落泪了,网友们的评论更是真情,都说这部电影充满了亲情。
首先有家,再去追梦!家人是寻梦的垫脚石,每个家庭都要有爱,孩子才能安心追梦。
篇14:西游记的观后感作文
全文共 1245 字
+ 加入清单人生是一杯香浓的苦茶,瑟瑟的味道耐人寻味;人生是一片枯黄的枫叶,年老的样子让人怜惜;人生是一盏明亮的蜡烛,燃近的时刻让人昏暗。人生何尝不是这样呢?我的第一部启蒙书籍是《西游记》至今还让我受益匪浅。
我感觉孙悟空才是《西游记》的主角,他虽然是一个石猴,但他在高官面前不服输,不受压迫,大闹天空的壮举令人感叹,难道你不想给他点个赞嘛?之后他被释迦牟尼压在了五行山下,等待着唐僧的到来,在五行山下的五百年,他笑吃铁胆,喜喝铜汁。以乐观向上的心态面对前方的路。有的人遇到困难,可以从哪跌倒哪里爬起。哈哈!这句话相信你一定很熟悉吧!而有的人面对困难,就会被这困难永久性的击倒,丧失斗志。如果,孙悟空是这第二种人,那么后来斗战胜佛又从何而来的哪?
猪八戒和孙悟空是一对黄金搭档,如果没有猪八戒的傻大憨色,根本就表现不出孙悟空的聪智灵慧。猪八戒的诞生其实就是为了衬托孙悟空,作为一个配角,他没有自暴自弃,积极的配合孙悟空,将自己的角色发挥的淋漓尽致。这让我明白憨态可拘的配角也可以给人源源不断的笑声。每个人都有自己存在的价值,从容的面对,不计较上天给的你的多少,以领航者的风范引领自己的人生,让人生充满自信,是金子总会发光的!
沙僧因在蟠桃会上打碎了王母娘娘的琉璃盏被贬下凡,在重多的人眼睛里,他是一个性格内向,做事没有主见的人。大概吧!虽然他平时只有三句话,是这样说的:“大师兄,师傅被抓走了。”;“大师兄,师傅和二师兄被妖怪给抓走了”;“师傅,大师兄说的对啊!”但是也不能改变我对他的看法。我觉得他是一个任劳任怨,勤劳肯干,不记个人得失,心胸宽广的人,每天只是在后面挑着担子。现代社会有多少人为了自己名和利,背信弃义,忘了最本质的东西。多学学沙僧吧!别记较的太多,让每个人乐善好施,勤劳努力,用自己的双手打出属于自己的一片天!
孙悟空虽然是最厉害的,但是唐僧间接的说是这部剧的老大,因为他有降服孙悟空的能力,那就是紧箍咒。他命运曲折悲惨,俗家姓陈。在西天路上,因为他太善良,常常被妖精欺骗,而孙悟空不是这样,他眼睛里容不下一点沙子,只要路见不平,掏出金箍棒扫除一切障碍。这样俩人就起了一层隔膜,常常误会孙悟空,孙悟空是有苦无处吟,有冤无处申哪!所以我管他叫做“太善良”,善良的让人觉得可怕,哎!怎么一点脑子都没有啊!他励志普度众生,让天下国泰民安!在西天路上困难重重,但他没有退缩,仍日以继往的向着自己的目标前进。人生就应该有善良的灵魂,一定要出淤泥而不染,不自私,时刻为他人着想,目标明确,柔韧倔强。这种人在现代社会还没有灭绝吗?啊!“盛唐僧人溢德品,现代吾生愧不如。”
《西游记》是中国文学史上的一颗璀璨的明珠,作为他的一名读者,我骄傲,我自豪,我觉得人生就应该有孙悟空的乐观;猪八戒的自信;沙僧的心胸和唐僧的大公无私,这样人生才能过得精彩,活的漂亮。如果常把人生与名着所相连,那我们的世界将会变成美好的人间。多读一些中国古典名着吧!去开发丰富的人生宝藏,去品味中国语言艺术的博大精深!

篇16:忠犬八公英语观后感
全文共 1750 字
+ 加入清单I watched Hachiko:A Dog’s Story days ago,eyes filling with tear.It’s really a fantasticly moving film.The plot went as:A college professor (Richard Gere) took in an abandoned dog and they formed an unbreakable bond.The dog arrived daily at the correct time at the station,to meet his owner.After the professor died while away from home,the dog kept vigil waiting for his master for nearly a decade.
To wait for your love for a decade,which contains almost the whole lifetime of Hachi,it’s an incredible dedication that we human beings never has.This is why the film strikes us a lot.No one has the ability to show his love to only one person during his whole life,let alone make friends with only one people; have the food that never changes year by year; do the same damn thing without complaining and conciousness of exhaustion.We can’t!However,what we could learn from Hachi is that we should never forget the one we once loved.
A detail in the movie catches my eyes.One day when professor was on his way to school,Hachi fetched the tennis ball as he was taught years ago.But during the last several years,he never did like that,because to fetch a ball in this way is not his instinct.Why Hachi did so?He wants to entertain his master for more palatable food,for a hug?I’m afraid not.
Research and statistics prove that pets are more sensitive in human’s potantial deseases than us do.Hachi fetched that ball because he knew that his master is going to die because of his heart desease.It’s his only way to hold him back.
Hachi has been waiting in the weeds,waiting for his only fellow to walk him home.His hope has been floating in the breeze,carrying his loneliness and misery all above the ground.Maybe professor knows,but he could never come back.
篇17:2024年飞屋环游记观后感
全文共 529 字
+ 加入清单今天我上网时看到一则图片。上面有一座房子和许多五颜六色的气球,千千万万个气球载着一栋房子飞在一望无际的天空中。这种美景激起了我浓厚的好奇心,我迫不及待的观看了这部电影。
这部影片讲述了一个女孩和男孩有着共同的爱好——探险。
后来女孩去世了,男孩很伤心,但看到女孩挂在墙上的瀑布画时他决定前往那个神秘的大峡谷,帮女孩完成还未完成的心愿。于是,男孩就做了许多的气球,带着一个小男孩杨素踏上了一条坎坷不平的探险之旅,一路上他们认识了一条会说话的狗和一只美丽的沙锥鸟。他们齐心协力打败了奸诈的老探险家詹姆斯,沙锥鸟也和她的孩子团聚了。
最终大男孩明白了什么是和亲情,小男孩也明白什么是友情。看到这,我联想到平时我总是遇到一些小挫折就逃避,从来不敢真正面对,也不愿意去解决问题,只是一味的去依靠别人。但他们的行动告诉了我什么是永恒,什么是坚持。也许他做这一切会失败,但至少他尝试过,他不放弃。
从电视上我也了解到有人曾冒着生命危险绑上气球飞上天空,但行程却与他开始预想的不一样,他本该落在水里,但他却飞向了房子密集的居民区,还差点挂在高压电线杆上,但他还是平安地落在房顶上。事实证明他成功了,虽然只有几个气球,但背后却历经了多少艰苦与磨难啊!只有这样反复尝试,才可能创造奇迹!

+ 加入清单寻梦环游记是一部搞笑,富有感情色彩的电影。一直很想去看,只是没有时间,今天终于有机会了。
这部电影讲的是皮鞋世家的男孩小格不愿顺从家人的意愿而要学做一名歌手。在亡灵节当天被诅咒而进入亡灵世界,遇见了自己死去的家人。义无反顾的追随自己的音乐梦想的故事。
小格在音乐梦想的道路上坚持不懈,即使家中没有人支持他。但他还有一个粉丝,就是流浪狗单单。小格有自己的音乐偶像埃内斯托,他见想总有一天也能成为埃内斯托一样,成为万人瞻仰的音乐教父。小格一开始以为他的偶像就是他的曾曾祖父,但后来才发现是一直陪伴在他身边的埃克斯。
小格虽然知道不能因为音乐而抛弃家人,但他最后是用音乐挽救了家人。当小格用歌声唤起曾祖母的记忆时,许多人心中是有感触的。“请记住我”是艾克斯写给女儿可可的,里面充满了父亲对女儿得不舍,也许这就是爱吧!
爱是即使自己老了也会记住内心牵挂之人;爱是也知道哪些人是真正爱你的;爱是即使与家人有矛盾,不愿原谅,也是因为曾今爱的太深,所以面对至亲的人不告而别时也会伤的更深。但是当亲人遇到危险时还是会勇敢地站出来,也会因为心中的爱而化解。也会在那万寿菊桥上牵手而行。
“在爱的记忆消失前,请记住我。“这就是爱的真谛!
篇20:刮痧英语观后感
全文共 4166 字
+ 加入清单Chinese immigrants struggle to hold onto their American dream after the husbands father (Xu Zhu) comes for a visit from mainland China and gives a si-mp-le Chinese Medicine therapy called Gua Sha to his grandson.
Da Tong (Tony Leung Ka Fai) is the father who is trying to integrate his Chinese cultural beliefs into his daily American reality, especially when dealing with his bo(Hollis Huston) and best friend, who is too quick to believe the worst about Da Tongs treatment of his son, Dennis. Da Tongs failures show his confusion about the differences between his original Chinese culture and his new American home. Even within his family there is conflict because Grandfather cant speak English and is excluded from many conversations because Mother (Wenli Jiang) wants only English spoken in her home for the benefit of her American born son. Da Tong and his wife are very well educated and understand that their childs best chances for succein America, and for him not to experience the same troubles theyve had during the past 8 years, are to speak without an accent. They even go so far as to insist the boy use a fork and knife instead of chopsticks, even when its obvious they are still eating Chinese style food, served in the normal way: communal dishes for the food and smaller, individual rice bowls for each person. Mother seems a bit inflexible in her insistence on being as American as possible, while Da Tongs cultural leanings are just as strongly Chinese, although not by conscious choice.
Da Tongs love for his son is tested severely when Da Tong tries to balance it against respect for his boss. When Da Tongs son hits his boss son, Da Tong insists on an apology that seems unnecessary and makes Da Tong look stubborn and uncaring. Da Tong gives his boy a light rap on the head when he refuses to apologize and the boy cries to his mother that the reason he hit his playmate was that the other boy called Da Tong stupid, one of many examples of doing the wrong thing to protect your family.
The conflict arising from doing the wrong thing out of love or respect for ones family or closest friends continues throughout the movie, and every way Da Tong turns, he finds failure and encounters both obvious and subtle forms of anti-Chinese racism. Even Chinese folklore about the Monkey King, Sun Wu Kong, that Da Tong incorporates into a video game he designed is used to provoke his pride when hes vulnerable and fearing for the loof his son. Da Tong is misunderstood by everyone, family, friend, and foe, even though he has only the best intentions, and he carries the responsibility quite heavily, ma-ki-ng one wrong turn after another.
Gua Sha (The Treatment) shows how a persons cultural beliefs are so deeply set within oneself that it is usually impossible to examine why you do most anything, from how you dreand talk to whom you love and respect and how you show it. The invisible nature of ones cultural beliefs also makes it difficult to impossible to explain yourself to others when questioned. Da Tong experiences an excruciatingly painful and difficult struggle while trying to protect his son, an ordeal that forces him to examine the validity of some of the most vital things he thought he knew about his identity, his Chinese culture, and the new American world hed chosen as his home.
The movie showed me how normal it is for people to look for ways that their culture is superior to others and how the misunderstandings arising from different cultural perspectives can seem very large, but can be nullified with si-mp-le, 2-sided explanations when people are willing to listen.
It appears this film is not readily available in the USA, but its the best Ive seen at highlighting the differences between American and Chinese culture. Parts of the movies dialog are only in Chinese and Ive yet to find a DVD with English subtitles, although its easy to get the gist of whats going on during those short passages. The credits are a combination of Chinese and English, holding true to the integration of both worlds. Ive noticed some important roles are not credited here on IMDb, such as Judge Horowitz, who was played by Alexander Barton。
