Borat Review
Borat Review
The film Borat is about a man from Kazakhstan who visits the USA with a cameraman to make a documentary about the lifestyle of Americans. During his trip, he meets a lot of different types of people, including some women of the feminist club and a Jewish family. Almost all of his reportages go wrong, as he is not really the smartest and best reporter.

When he suddenly finds a magazine about Baywatch, he sees a beautiful picture of a woman, Pamela Anderson. He decides to go on an adventurous trip to find the woman of his life. Finally he finds Pamela Anderson, but he tries to kidnap here and he gets caught by the police. Then, when you think everything has gone wrong for Borat, he decides to marry a prostitute, which he really loves. Happy ending.

The whole film is ironic, for example that he is anti-gay but he kisses men and not women. The film also has some attitudes towards gypsies and Jewish people, Borat doesn’t like gypsies and Jewish people. It was sometimes very hard to laugh at scenes where he was making very rude jokes about for example gypsies and Jewish people. The film looks simple, but actually it is very complicated, as it uses a lot of irony, satire, pathos and satires throughout the movie. So, Borat (also the director of the movie), turns out to actually be a very creative film writer!

    Mel Brooks’ Blazing Saddles is a satirical comedy movie that was released in 1974. It is a movie that took the serious situation of racism and stereotypes and turned them into a lighter, more comical topic. The element that made this movie so great is that throughout the movie, by using the theme of general racism, Mel Brooks was able to address all sorts of different stereotypes making people see the faults in all races and ethnicities.…

    Blackrobe Movie Review

    • 1059 Words
    • 5 Pages

    ‘Black Robe' is the story of a young Jesuit Priest from France who embarks on a religious journey to convert, to Christianity, the Aboriginal tribes of New France. Set primarily in Ontario during the mid 1630's, Father Lafargue travels from Quebec via the Ottawa River to the home of the Huron people in what is now referred to as the Simcoe Region of South Central Ontario. He is aided by a band of Algonquin-speaking people, numbering roughly 20 and a young Frenchman with aspirations of Priesthood in the motherland. Blackrobe offers an intriguing insight into the relationships between the French and the Aboriginals. That being said most of the background for the movie is taken from a massive archive of Jesuit texts which needs to be taken into consideration when objectively looking at the portrayal of the Aboriginals. Blackrobe is a fictional movie although for the most part it is historically accurate and has been accepted as such by many historians and Aboriginal people alike. When critically reviewing ‘Black Robe' it is important to look at the relationships between the two vastly different cultures and how they are represented. To a lesser extent it is important to look at the different Aboriginal tribes and how they not only interact with themselves, but with the French and Jesuits as well. The portrayal of the Europeans in the feature film ‘Black Robe' was one of social superiority in relation to the Aboriginal tribes, specifically the Algonquin and Iroquois and to a lesser extent the Huron. This does not, however, qualify Europeans as ‘good' and the Aboriginals as ‘bad' as that aspect of interpretation would better be left to moral philosophers and not historians or movie critics.…

    That's pretty much it, but there's a lot more if you look beyond the plot. Bonnie Parker (Faye Dunaway) is a bored Texan waitress who meets Clyde Barrow (Warren Beatty), an ex-convict fresh out of jail. Both are faced with a meaningless life in the grip of the Great Depression, so after introductions are made Clyde sweeps Bonnie into a life of bank robbers and other crimes, but she comes willingly since she sees it as a means of escape. The movie strikes this weird tone that straddles light hearted love story and violent crime drama as the two try to assume some populist Robin Hood stature in the eyes of sharecroppers and other folks made destitute by the Depression. Both clearly announce their identities at the beginning of each heist and even pose for pictures and send in bad poetry about their exploits to the newspapers. They even accumulate a posse in the form of a like-minded but none too bright gas station attendant C.W. Moss plus Clyde's older brother Buck (Gene Hackman) and his harpy of a wife Blanche (Estelle Parsons).…

    However, it ends to be a satire between the sociopolitical system faced with the threat of the war. The movie is ironic when they show the earth been invaded by gigantic bug that can kill everything in their front. In my point of view, I could distinguish when it was ironic and when it was not, for example the part that Juan Rico try to safe his girlfriend. Every soldier that have the feeling on the war gets determined to protect yourself and also his partners.…

    Lincoln Movie Review

    • 641 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The movie Lincoln, directed by the infamous Steven Spielberg, is based on the life of Abraham Lincoln and his efforts to pass the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which would abolish slavery completely. With the assumption that the Civil War would end in one month, however, Abraham feels it it is imperative to pass the amendment by the end of January, thus removing any possibility that slaves who have already been freed may be re-enslaved. Radical Republicans believe the amendment will be defeated, due to the support of it not being completely assured, since they prioritize the issue of ending the war. Even if all of them are ultimately brought on board, the amendment will still require the support of several Democratic congressmen if it is to pass. With dozens of Democrats having just lost their re-election campaigns in the fall of 1864, some of Lincoln's advisers believe that he should wait until the new Republican-heavy Congress is seated, presumably giving the amendment an easier road to passage. Lincoln, however, remains adamant about having the amendment in place and the issue of slavery settled before the war is concluded and the southern States reintegrated into the Union.…

    Kite Runner Essay

    • 858 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Irony is a literary technique used to show contrast between reality and what appears to be reality. It is usually used to put emphasis on a particular event in a book. In the novel The Kite Runner, written by Khaled Hosseini, irony is used throughout the book to tie together certain events and themes. The story follows a boy named Amir living in Kabul, Afghanistan during the Taliban take over. Amir lives with his wealthy father Baba and his two servants, Hassan and Ali. Even though Hassan is Amir's servant and is of a lower class, the boys are best friends in the beginning of the book. Much of the story is about Amir trying to get his fathers' love and approval. But in the beginning of this book Amir does a couple things opposite of what Baba would have wanted and he sets himself up for a lifetime of guilt. Throughout the book Amir is trying to find a way to get rid of this guilt he has and most of his actions are interlaced with some form of irony.…
