Somewhere in the remote region, the war ends. In the midst of ruined cities and houses in the streets, in rural hamlets, everywhere where people still live, are children who have lost their homes and parents. Abandoned, hungry, and in rags, defenseless and humiliated, they wander through the world. Hunger drives them. Little streams of orphans merge into a river which rushes forward and submerges everything in its path. The children do not know any feeling; they know only the world of their enemies. They fight, steal, struggle for a mouthful of food, and violence is merely a means to get it. A gang led by Cahoun finds a refuge in an abandoned castle and encounters an old composer who has voluntarily retired into solitude from a world of hatred, treason, and crime. How can they find a common ground, how can they become mutual friends? The castle becomes their hiding place but possibly it will also be their first home which they may organize and must defend. But even for this, the price will be very high.
To this simple story, the journalist, writer, poet, scriptwriter, movie director, and film theoretician Béla Balázs applied many years of experience. He and the director Géza Radványi created a work which opened a new postwar chapter in Hungarian film. Surprisingly, this film has not lost any of its impact over the years, especially on a profound philosophical level. That is to say, it is not merely a movie about war; it is not important in what location and in what period of time it takes place. It is a story outside of time about the joyless fate of children who pay dearly for the cruel war games of adults.
At the time it was premiered, the movie was enthusiastically received by the critics. The main roles were taken by streetwise boys of a children's group who created their roles improvisationally in close contact with a few professional actors, and in the children's acting their own fresh experience of war's turmoil appears to be reflected. At the same time, their performance fits admirably into the mosaic of a very complex movie language. Balázs's influence revealed itself, above all, in the introductory sequences: an air raid on an amusement park, seen in a montage of dramatic situations evoking the last spasms of war, where, undoubtedly, we discern the influence of classical Soviet cinematography. Shooting, the boy's escape, the locomotive's wheels, the shadows of soldiers with submachine guns, the sound of a whistle—the images are linked together in abrupt sequences in which varying shots and expressive sharp sounds are emphasized. A perfectly planned screenplay avoided all elements of sentimentality, time-worn stereotypes of wronged children, romanticism and cheap simplification. The authors succeeded in bridging the perilous dramatic abyss of the metamorphosis of a children's community. Their telling of the story (the scene of pillaging, the assault on the castle, etc) independently introduced some neorealist elements which, at that time, were being propagated in Italy by De Sica, Rossellini, and other film artists. The rebukes of contemporary critics, who called attention to "formalism for its own sake" have been forgotten. The masterly art of cameraman Barnabás Hegyi gives vitality to the poetic images. His angle shots of the children, his composition of scenes in the castle interior, are a living document of the times, and underline the atmosphere and the characters of the protagonists. The success of the picture was also enhanced by the musical art of composer Dénes Buday who, in tense situations, inserted the theme of the Marseilaise into the movie's structure, as a motive of community unification, as an expression of friendship and the possibility of understanding.
Valahol Europaban is the first significant postwar Hungarian film. It originated in a relaxed atmosphere, replete with joy and euphoria, and it includes these elements in order to demonstrate the strength of humanism, tolerance, and friendship. It represents a general condemnation of war anywhere in the world, in any form.
电影拍摄的很刻意 但我理解这种他们的愤怒
这又从另一个侧面触及了“周星驰”式的残忍。
我们还有空在豆瓣叨叨在健身房锻炼的，其实都是广州阿娟，农民工不需要健身。导演清醒知道，舞狮不能改变命运，少年和大叔都只能振奋自我的心智，知识也只是带来改变的希望，九连真人，正是上大学以后的乡下阿娟。
印度种姓制度真的是惨无人道，低种姓没一点人权。
一面以传统文化受到冷落为全片背景，一面以众多舞狮队对冠军的争夺为高光时刻，悖论的产生使得本片只能成为不太美味的鸡汤
世界之内，阐述不尽的恶，但好在人性尚有温柔之处吧。
中国也有，别装理中客了，摸摸良心吧，总有一天你们会需要的，铁拳之下众生都是刍狗。
虽然套路，但，真的好燃啊！！！后半段各种热泪瞬间。结尾收得很好，不用真的给一个奇迹瞬间，足够感动就够了。舞狮如人生，都是上山下山。未必都会赢，但一定不能认输。另外，其实舞狮并不能改变什么，也不会真的让你走向成功。但生活中总是要有点奔头，要有一口气，这才是活下去的理由，也是会觉得热血的原因。
中间叙事节奏有点拖沓，但是但是，最后那纵身一跃和前往上海继续打工，是非常成功的一笔。令人想到所有心怀理想的小人物面对命运压榨时候的“不认”，高光之后回归现实，一切都没有改变，但是一切都不一样。这种现实的理想主义做派，在热衷“造梦”的动画/国产电影中少见，不得不加星。（我也被木棉砸过，虽然在广州没见过那么漫山遍野的木棉）
只有后20分钟能称得上“好看”两个字，但是电影是一个需要连贯表达的，只有20分钟是好看的电影属实称不上是一个“好电影”，营销可以入选中国新媒体营销诈骗实录top10。我又被骗到了
我们惊叹电影真敢拍的时候，现实却比电影残酷得多
音乐太会啦，情绪完全有被调动起来。眼距宽又怎么样，我觉得很有特色很可爱啊，某些网友真是奇怪，一定要对标日漫式大眼吗？大赞场景和人设，有中国特色，也是我所认识的村景。最重要的是，被平凡人的故事打动。
如果一定要喊国产动画崛起，或许现在才是好时候。
什么叫“平凡人的故事”？？尴尬又中二的台词，悬浮而没逻辑的剧情，动机浅薄且莫名其妙的人物。那些为实现一个梦想 把功夫从小练到大的人们，现实中有多艰难 这些主角成功就有多简单！全靠作弊、喊口号、摆光环，赛制根本没点规矩。最后那个自以为是点睛之笔的，也不尊重传统文化纯属装b。热血？我只觉得愤怒又无语😓
狮头像个做梦装置，戴上就是雄狮少年。
好多人给了好评，满怀期待去看，全程：啥玩意？就这？一直期待结尾来点高潮，让我燃起来，结果一点感觉都没有。看到编剧是里则林，我一百万个后悔看之前没查编剧是谁。我朋友是觉得老套，所有的剧情都能猜出来。我直接说严重一点，剧情融梗严重，但融的梗都稍稍有变化（我能说编剧鸡贼吗？）。剧情发展本应该特别燃，但有时为了搞笑，放弃了塑造，比如在舞狮大赛初赛的时候，本应该有剧情片段是刻画他们成功赢了曾经比输过的队伍，但初赛的段落完全没有，反而把戏份放在了教练身上。到底是要讲年轻人的故事还是讲教练这枚老将的故事呢？编剧自己搞不清楚了。后来可能是为了增加时长，又让主角父亲出问题了，主角不得不去打工挣钱了……看到这里真的是无比生气啊。啥玩意啊。瞎胡闹！主角已经完成了成长，就应该让他一直杀上去啊！突然又整幺蛾子干嘛！
技术层面算目前国片顶级，但剧情和人设土鳖到无法直视，愿天堂没有全能美少女扶贫屌丝。
印度版的《辩护人》之感，不过就故事剧情、思想深度…等而言，个人感觉韩国电影《辩护人》比这部《杰伊·比姆》更胜一筹。—— -如果你同意的话，我会和那些警察谈谈，补偿给你需要的钱。为了孩子们的未来，你需要钱，你需要做出决定。-还没出生的婴儿，我不能给他看亲生父亲，但我却会有很多钱，购买我要养活孩子们的食物？如果他们问起，买食物的钱是怎么来的？“是把你爸爸活活打死的人送的，我们需要这样子生存。” 长官，我要这样教育我的孩子吗？当我们被杀的时候没有人在乎，我们也不会靠从凶手那里获得的救济金生活。我不在乎我输了这个案件，我可以骄傲地告诉孩子们，虽然失败了，但我们没有放弃抗争。如果你可以，就去惩罚那些凶手警察。
这个动画水准是在追赶皮克斯了。浓郁的中国特色故事。外出务工父母，农村留守儿童，梦想的闪耀与现实的捶打，坚持与放弃，一尊大佛的精神寄托，回力鞋，美的广告，双喜搪瓷缸子，这都是典型的中国🇨🇳元素。最后神来之笔是：雄狮昂首挺胸走过大佛！多处细节泪水打转。
还有，舞狮这个题材多好啊，关于这项运动的传统、技术、动作，这些都可以做文章啊，结果一点没提。白瞎了这么好的题材！！！
