Harold and the Purple Crayon Trailer 2

Inside his book, Harold can create anything he wants with his crayon. As he grows up, Harold draws himself out of the book and into the physical world. "Harold finds he has a lot to learn about real life—and that his trusty purple crayon may set off more hilarious hijinks than he thought possible. When the power of unlimited imagination falls into the wrong hands, it will take all of Harold and his friends’ creativity to save both the real world and his own." (Sony Pictures)

Harold and the Purple Crayon stars Zachary Levi, Lil Rel Howery, Tanya Reynolds, Zooey Deschanel, Benjamin Bottani, Jemaine Clement, and Alfred Molina. Carlos Saldanha directs from a screenplay by David Guion and Michael Handelman. The film is inspired by Crockett Johnson's book of the same name.

Harold and the Purple Crayon releases to theaters on August 2, 2024.

Harold and the Purple Crayon (PG): A surprisingly enjoyable family film.

#onemannsmovies #filmreview of "Harold and the Purple Crayon". #HaroldAndThePurpleCrayon. A surprisingly fun family film despite the dodgy trailer. 4/5.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “Harold and the Purple Crayon” (2024). The source material for “Harold and the Purple Crayon” dates back to 1955 and Crockett Johnson’s children’s book. It was actually turned into a 7 minute animated short in 1959. When I saw the trailer for this one a few weeks ago, I was NOT impressed. So it came as a nice surprise when I watched the film. For this is a really…

Trama

Harold è un bambino che vive in un libro insieme ai suoi due migliori amici, Moose e Porcupine. Grazie a un pastello viola magico può far diventare reale ciò che disegna.

Quando Harold cresce, il narratore che chiama "Old Man" scompare misteriosamente, e per andare a cercarlo disegna una porta per andare nel Mondo Reale.

Recensione

Il film è un tributo all'immaginazione più pura, contenuta nel potere magico di un pastello viola ma che, se unita a un'intera scatola di altri pastelli colorati, ha un potere davvero potente. E, come dimostra il film stesso, il potere dell'immaginazione contenuto in quel singolo pastello viola è davvero immenso, perché non c'è limite a quello che una singola persona può immaginare.

I wanted to show folks that with a little imagination you can make your life whatever you want it to be. Volevo mostrare alle persone che con un po' di immaginazione puoi trasformare la tua vita in qualunque cosa tu voglia.

È una storia che insegna a usare la propria fantasia per rendere felici le persone che ci stanno attorno, in quanto già il mondo reale è pieno di crudeltà e tristezza. Ma è anche una storia che dimostra quanto, oltre che la fantasia e l'immaginazione, è necessario impegnarsi. Per raggiungere i propri obiettivi occorre anche tenere i piedi per terra e la testa sulle spalle: l'immaginazione deve aiutare ad addolcire le difficoltà che si incontrano nel scalare la vetta, senza sostituirsi al mondo reale perché, in tal caso, sarà qualcun altro a scrivere la tua storia. A condire il tutto vi è anche l'importanza dell'amicizia, e in particolare quella verache nei momenti più difficili ti viene ad aiutare senza farselo ripetere due volte.

Because life isn't just something that happens to you, it's something you create. The trick is in the imagining. Perché la vita non è solo qualcosa che ti capita, ma è qualcosa che crei. Il trucco è nell'immaginazione.

È una commedia dalla trama molto lineare e divertente, che segue la linea viola tracciata dal pastello di Harold donatogli dal suo creatore Crockett Johnson. Belli sono gli effetti speciali, ma ottimo è l'uso dell'animazione.

Valutazione

★★★★★ 5/5

Note aggiuntive

La storia è tratta dall'omonimo libro per bambini scritto da Crockett Johnson, ed è da considerarsi come il suo sequel.

L'azienda statunitense Crayola ha stretto una partnership con Sony cogliendo la palla al balzo per promuovere il film, lanciando il concorso "Find the purple crayon" in stile Willy Wonka e la Fabbrica di Cioccolato: Harold ha nascosto dei pastelli speciali all'interno delle confezioni da 24 pastelli. Si tratta di una caccia nazionale sul territorio statunitense, che può vedere una famiglia vincere una vacanza a New York City e visitare la Crayola experience, o altri premi tra i quali una TV Sony o bundle di prodotti viola Crayola.

Slumberland

[3 stars]

Slumberland should have been so much more than it ended up being. It just never quite comes together the way it needed to, despite some absolutely wonderful ideas and visuals.

Collaborative Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb writers, David Guion and Michael Handelman, came up with a wild and fun concept that even has a little bit of an edge. But it was all a little too easy and without the depth it might have had. And director Francis Lawrence (Red Sparrow) didn’t find the right tone, allowing his main characters to sleepwalk and joke their way through most of the tough moments.

The result is that the capable leads, Marlow Barkley (Spirited, Single Parents), Jason Momoa (Dune), Weruche Opia, and Chris O’Dowd (The Starling) all feel a bit hollow. Honestly, when the stuffed pig comes across as the most believable character, you know something was lacking from the rest of the performances.

But the movie entertains and is, within its limits, delightful and fun. And, thanks to the skating over the toughest bits of the story, pretty much safe for all ages, though less engaging as you get out of teen years (in fact or in heart). But I’d still recommend it for the visual ride of a kid’s Matrix and the plot that turns out more clever than you think it will.
