some impressions about this movie


     Except for admiring Odyssey for his brave,intelligence and tenacity after enjoying this movie,what impresses me more is that the movie makes me rethink the differences and similarities between Chinese mythology and European mythology as well as some consideration about the nature.
    This movie reminds me of 「Journey To The West」,one of the Four Great Classical Novels in China. I think they do have something in common. As for the plot, the protagonists of these two mythologies both suffered a lot before they came back home. On their way home,there were many great trials and tribulations as well as lure but they finally have a strong willpower to through the difficulties. What's more,there must be assistance from other gods if there was something beyond their own power. Even though the protagonists of European mythology look like an ordinary person while Chinese mythology's are always connected to animals ,I think what they try to tell us human beings is the same. That is,brave,confidence,intelligence and tenacity make our life shining.
      I think this movie impressed me most is something about the nature. We human beings are now less and less respectful to the nature.We are now always destroy the environment without feeling shamed.But as we can see in the movie,the ancient Greeks really revered the power of nature.With mythology, they made sense of it and they infused it in their religion, their stories, their history. Now ,as the science being increasingly developed, people are more and more concerned about the development but regardless of the environment. In this movie, Odyssey offended Poseidon - the god of sea thus being punished. I think if we continue destroying the environment,we will finally be punished by the nature as Odyssey did thousands of years ago.
