Doraemon is arguably one of the 90s products. You see, childhood generation of the 90s every week is always filled with cat robots from the 22nd century who always help this Nobita. His story raised Nobita's carelessness, which always led to endless problems. In fact, every year there is always a new adventure film released to pamper Doraemon fans.
This year there is Doraemon: Nobita and the Birth of Japan who greet fans with a new adventure story. This time, you will be invited by director Shinnosuke Yukawa to explore Japan in prehistoric times. At the time when Japan was still a land that joined China, Nobita and his friends found their freedom. They are very satisfied to be able to enjoy the fresh air which is certainly not found in cities and green grass. Most importantly, there were only them. Feel like your own world.
Eits , but wait a minute. In prehistoric times, exactly 70,000 years ago, they were not the only humans on Earth. Far to the West of Japan, there are already humans who live and spread terror. Like the Maya in Apocalypto by Mel Gibson, this group of people also gathered people to be made slaves. The slaves were forced to build their palaces.
This group is led by a magician named Gigazombie. This witch has a mysterious and suspicious power. In the end, Doraemon, Nobita, and his friends had to fight the witch to save prehistoric times.
Viki deserves a thumbs up for the way Yukawa worked on the story. As a children's film, Doraemon: Nobita and the Birth of Japan managed to show the world of children naturally. Nobita and his friends appear innocent and witty, full of curiosity and optimistic soul who are always hungry for adventure. This film shows that children also need to enjoy life their way. They must feel a pleasant world, where they are free to play.

For nearly two hours, Viki couldn't understand the tools that Doraemon released. The idea is really brilliant, really makes life more practical. Even so, this film does not forget the fact that they lived in prehistoric times. So, when Giant and Suneo want to cut down trees with Doraemon tools in the presence of prehistoric humans, Doraemon forbids them. Doraemon doesn't want to damage the way prehistoric humans make weapons, because it can change history.
The film is entertaining with plain and straightforward humor. What is clear is that Nobita and his friends are portrayed as children should be. No one has ever been made to be an adult beyond his age. Therefore, this film is perfect for the whole family to watch. What is highlighted is only adventure, magic, and pure friendship that can even cross time and space.
Viki also deserves thumbs up with the same picture quality. This film is colorful and plays with bright nuances. However, this does not at all make you hurt your eyes. Instead, the pictures actually spoil the eyes really. The portrayal of the Chinese plains is also very fitting, so it's like seeing a Chinese painting again. Not to mention, the shooting angle is very broad, suitable for showing the natural beauty of Japan that is still natural.
