Deep Sea

This Chinese movie is so beautiful, filled with vibrant colours and top notch animation, I was so invested in the story and the atmospheric environment of this movie, the character design is so unique and weird, the cgi and vfx are so beautiful, even the rain looks like something from the dream, it's like the whole movies is inspired by lucid dreams, I was really glad I watched this movies, I have watched so many Chinese animated movies but, this one has some of the best colour palette, the story is very emotional and quite effective by the end, over I enjoyed the movie and hope to see more work like this in the future.

Actually, I want to give 6 points, and the extra 1 point is for the efforts of Chinese anime.

The picture is very gorgeous, colorful, and made with a great sense of quality. It can be considered a successful creation of a dreamy atmosphere. But sometimes it can overwhelm the theme characters, and made it confused.

The story was combination of Chinese and Western elements. I can see "Spirited Away", Dementor in "Harry Potter" and the elements of Stephen Chow's movie. It should be a story of self-redemption. She broke free from the shackles of depression in her own dreams. But in my opinion, she still needs external forces, attention, and companionship. In this story, she tells herself in her dream that someone loves her, someone values her, and someone accompanies her. The story interweaved fictional plots with reality. Sometimes it's difficult to distinguish whether one is in a dream or in reality. Perhaps the director wants such an effect.

A visually stunning and glamorous film. It follows a simple yet touching story through the eyes of the broken girl Shenxiu and a troubled man Nanhe. It revolves around the sea and the quest for a long lost destination. The first half of the film takes viewes into the universe. The last couple of scenes are tear-jerkers, when the ending song rose I just sit there and let myself immersed in the story. It's a story about pain and healing, sacrifice and salvation. Yet the dialogues in the film could be more refined and the first half plot is relatively weak. It could resonate with people fighting depression, anyway it's worth watching.

The Deep Sea with its stunning particle effects, moving story content, in the Spring Festival stalls can be a flood of power to defeat the wandering earth 2 and full of red works, in recent years of animation competition can also be a flood of power to defeat thousands of horses, from the special effects or the core of the story are very heart, personally think is really the best Chinese animation film in recent years, breakthrough technology also breakthrough my heart defense, very moving film, although there are some flaws but the flaw does not cover up, I hope the audience can really quiet to watch it with heart, it deserves a better box office.

Giving this a 8/ 10

This film from China is nothing short of magnificent in looks and story, although it does get a little lost a bit, just like a another Chinese animated film that came out earlier this year, 'The Storm'. I saw the trailer for this, must be 3 years ago, so I was looking forward to it, and it does not disappoint.

Xiaopeng Tian and Fabiola Stevenson, have given us really one of the best looking films out there, let alone animated film of the year., again another film for IMAX, if you can catch it. The story of a girls misfortunes of good and bad luck, depending on your point of view, and the dubbed version which I saw is very good. You really do get some great characters in this film, and some of the best production design on an animated film for a while, such vivid colours and music.

The only flaw is the narrative does lose it's self a bit, which is a shame, otherwise this would be an 8.5 rated film, but 8 is very good indeed, and I am seeing it again, The films ending really makes it worth the watch, a real good pay off. Don't get much animation from China, so go see this.
