Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev is the story of the Hindu God Shiva, also called as Mahadev. The show portrays his journey from a hermit to a house holder. In the show Shiva takes many incarnations and many incidents take place. However, this plot mentions only the major events.
The story starts with the tale of Shiva's marriage with Sati. Sati who is the daughter of Prajapati Daksha, a staunch Vishnu devotee, is drawn towards Shiva against the wishes of her father. She finally marries Shiva, but soon dies by self-immolation when her husband is insulted at the yajna of Daksha. The grief-striken Shiva produces Virabhadra, who slays Daksha, however he restores Daksha's life after beseeching of Daksha's wife. A distraught Shiva leaves with burnt corpse of Sati and wanders the universe. Vishnu severs the body into pieces, shattering them on earth. Shiva transforms the pieces into Shakti Peethas, embodiments of the power of the Goddess Adi Shakti.
Sati is reborn as Parvati, the daughter of Himavan, king of the Himalayas and Mainavati. She is also the sister of the river-goddess, Ganga. Parvati is raised in the hermitage of the Shiva devotee sage Dadhichi, who teaches her devotion to Shiva. Parvati grows up and like Sati, is captivated by Shiva. She slowly remembers her past life, then wins Shiva by her austerities leading to their marriage.
Shiva and Parvati give birth to Kartikeya, who slays the demon Tarakasura and his brothers. Kartikeya is also nominated for the throne of the King of Devas but Shiva asks Indra to continue as the king. After this Kartikeya is sent to the Dakshin (south) where he is cared by Meenakshi and here he slays the demon (asura), Tripath with her help. The story goes on with the tale of the destruction of Tripura, belonging to the revengeful sons of Tarakasura, who were earlier given boons by Shiva. And just before the destruction of the Tripura, Shiva and Parvati's daughter, Ashoksundari is born.
After the destruction of Tripura, except Lord Indra (the King of Devas) everyone congratulate Shiva for destructing Tripura and also for being the father of Ashokasundari. Rishi Durvasa gives him a special garland, which Shiva gave Narada as prasadam. When given Lord Indra accepts the garland placing it on the trunk of his elephant, Airavata to proof that he is egoistic throws it. This enrages the sage and he curses Indra and evryone to be bereft of all wealth and fortune. Soon later to take revenge on the destruction of Tripura, King Bali attacks heaven and in attempt to steal Amrita (nectar of immortality). But it falls into the Ocean of milk. To get the Amrit back Devas join hands with Asuras to churn the ocean for the Amrita and to share it among them.
The churning of the ocean, known as Samudra Manthan is an elaborate process. In the process the Devas disadvantage the Asuras in many ways. Despite this, they churn the ocean. In the process Lord Vishnu also takes his second incarnation of a turtle, Kurma.
The process releases a number of things from the ocean. One product is the lethal poison known as Halahala. This could contaminate the ocean and destroy all of creation. To save everyone Lord Shiva inhales the poison in an act of self-sacrifice but Parvati rescues him by pressing his neck to stop the poison from spreading. As a result, the color of Lord Shiva's neck turns blue. During the churning many things are obtained from the ocean which includes Lakshmi, the Goddess of fortune and wealth, who is the eternal consort of Vishnu. Thus, everyone gets their wealth and fortune back. Later Vishnu takes the Amrita secretly from the Asuras and distributes it among the Devas.
The story takes some years leap after which it is shown that Kartikeya has been removed from the post of Senapati(head of the army), which pleases Indra and for the first time after so many years, a grown-up Ashoksundari meets Kartikeya. Kartikeya also meets his parents. He enlightens Ashoksundari about meditation and she inspired by it so much that she renounces her life to meditate, which disturbs Parvati.
Looking at the ill happening of the world, of how Ahalya is seduced by Indra, Mahadev come indside. Even after Mahadev tells that he is his father and many other gods tried to tell him, he still refuses. Mahadev got angry and cut Vinayak's head.
有些人只能看到所谓的亚裔刻板印象，好似已经拍过无数部？并没有呢
一个不恰当比喻，就像搞了100遍不同的角色扮演最后阳痿，阳痿前还要浪漫烛光晚餐求婚。
没有很喜欢，甚至最后是快进看完的。大概是对亲情电影这个立意本身就不太喜欢吧。像一个对女儿没办法的妈咪，通过妄想在欺骗自己的感觉😑。
感觉是把能想到的元素都用上了，中间还cos了一段王家卫（虽然剧情挺晋江的），一度要被打戏看到疲累时，又进入下一个温柔的反转，一度以为要和解时，又进入下一段关系的激辩。完全因为最后母女之间的对话，让我多打了一星，because敢相信我一个30多岁的人，现在依然就像电影这样和我爸不断争论，然后往往以我的一句“你别管我了”结尾，然后俩人互相沉默，看到这里我真的爆哭。但是过一段时间，对方遇到什么问题，又像没有发生过一样，继续互相照顾，然后继续争吵，然后继续和解，真的就是不断地这样在重复（前提是我已经不再跟父母同住，但每隔一段时间还是会见面）。虽然一开始觉得编剧把结局写成大和解，太不现实了吧，现实中站在各自立场的双方，怎么可能和解？但写到这里，我发现这个结局不过是阶段性和解，过一段时间后，电影会重演。
花拳绣腿焦躁的叙事鸡蛋壳里，包着一只宛若鹌鹑蛋大小的内核，且是如此之老套。用力之猛，到了未发育好的婴儿却走一步路浑身能掉下五百个金币的程度，愈显婴儿之稚嫩和头脑之空。致敬了无数电影，也一样是停在致意上，为满足那些“迷影”却非迷“影”的群体。
这个片名真是太精准了，everything everywhere而且还是同时出现，移民、科幻、lgbt、温情、搞笑…开脑洞不难，难的是把everything everywhere表现得一目了然。影片虽然时长超过2个小时，但是相信没有人会觉得它节奏慢，甚至有时候会生怕自己一走神漏掉了什么。
太累了，为什么做亚裔女性哪怕已经是宇宙里独一无二的超人还要听从软弱老公那一套love heals all的狗屁人生哲学，还要强行绑架下一代重复再重复这些bullshit mess；为什么荧幕上的挪威女性寻找人生就是去恋爱，为什么荧幕上的亚裔女性寻找人生比取经还难，还得拍成科幻片，到底是谁在恶性循环谁。Such a bullshit, fucking bullshit. Bullshit is all.
太喜欢啦，想摁头给我认识的每一个人// 尽管脑子里有一个更黑暗的结局，但现在这样也很好，我们都还要活下去不是吗？// 我有papercutphobia我我我我我我在电影院鬼叫了整整两分钟给AMC Empire 25 4月9号6pm场的全体观众跪下道歉了🙇♀️
就跟电影结束出来的“天马行空”一样，电影用最荒诞和幽默方式讲着世间最平常的爱与包容，爱他人，爱无用的自己，包容他人，也包容无用的自己，中间那段抽帧模仿花样年华也是棒棒哒。这是我看过杨紫琼最迷人的电影。我想这电影在5.17国际不再恐同日上流媒体也是有原因的。
我以为这是个要讲爱与理解的故事，但是母亲和女儿关系的来回拉扯，让我意识到，比起理解，父权社会下的女儿更想要尊重，在尊重她是个独立个体的前提下，还爱她，理解她，肯定她。真实的关系中哪里能划分得那么清楚，情感是复杂的相互交织的，每个人想要的，是自己爱的那个人爱自己，用着自己想要的方式。
感觉和《青春变形记》一样都在讲亚裔家庭的自我认同和传统父母，恰好两部的手法和想要探讨的感觉我都不喜欢，感觉并没有拍出那种中国父母和子女相互伤害又相互关心的感觉。
我觉得结局停在放女儿走那段就挺好的吧，没想到最后又大团圆了，好的今天的东亚家庭价值就上到这里，ps.我也想要个软弱的老公
这片让人感到电影作为entertainment的fun，打光、剪辑、亚文化趣味和多重宇宙是一回事，一种时间的霓虹，every moment all at once，电影就是这种共时性魔术，尽管在科学上是错的，神经元控制不了量子尺度，石头不说英语，我们不能超越rules，但亲爱的，在这种错误里有让人情感激荡的东西，那是对你是你的错觉，也是对我是我的幻觉，正是这种对连续性的认知缺陷，创造了所有那些高光与遗憾，像个黑贝果一样（或42一样），连接你和我。
创意是有，但故事讲的支离破碎，以至于电影都一半了，还不知道在讲什么。
前面是磕嗨了➕live action版的rick and morty➕hk动作喜剧，结果最后还是把我整哭了，紫姨演的太好了，今晚为爱流泪。
创意可嘉，表演合格，商业层面上完成度高。但商业导向制造出1⃣️打斗太多2⃣️低级趣味桥段充斥。
没想到这么稀碎也能是一部电影，我的最高评价也只能是有佳句无佳章了，虽然还蛮喜欢花样年华风格的段落，以及认可一切无用是为了让我们更好受。
后现代量子力学虚无主义Rick & Morty迷影下的华人移民家庭面临的压力和矛盾：夫妻卑微的社会地位和无聊的日常生活；对子女社会成就高期待值和子女能力有限的矛盾。前者通过阅尽世间繁华再回归到日常来消解，后者靠自我如此渺小和期待父母爱与包容来治愈。但这种解决方案无非是万事皆空、接受自己、珍惜当下、平淡是真这种老鸡汤，不具备真正的力量和方向，不如孔子“知其不可而为之”和马丁路德“就算明天世界毁灭今天也要种下一颗苹果树”，华人和西方社会还是应该回归到儒家和基督教的传统价值上来解决自己的精神危机。
2022.4.12 wild, wild, wild! 片如其名——天马行空。有好笑的，也有动作元素。服装好神奇！主演演技好好。主旨似乎是在探究混乱中的意义。或者是“如何将试图自杀者拉回来”。说教的部分有点出戏。
用最复杂的形式讲最普遍存在的情感问题，用全宇宙来催促一个人成长变化，无论你在哪个宇宙，我们都会找到你，这大概是最大的浪漫。
