Deadpool Movie Analysis
I used National News Core to search movie reviews from newspapers and magazines and read a review of the movie “Deadpool” from the New York Times. The tone is lighthearted and positive. The author describes the movie as “a feverishly eager-to-please comic-book movie about a supervillain who suits up like a superhero” (Dargis). He seemed to appreciate the “winking and rib poking” that is a trademark of the Deadpool story line. While acknowledging the movie's shortcomings, the author casts them in a positive light when he writes, “while the tears salting these scenes may be cynical...they offer a necessary break from the strained patter and violence.” The movie's plot is described in broad strokes without including details that might give

    ‘Warm bodies’ is a zombie movie based on Isaac Marion’s novel. This particular zombie movie that was themed ‘black romance’ is really unique. In the post-apocalyptic universe, the surviving humans have isolated themselves in a safe place in the city, but outside there are many mumbling and shuffling zombies that are still in the human phase just before they turn into skeletal, hideous attackers. Among these undead folks is a handsome man who falls in love with a beautiful daughter of a zombiephobe survivor. The movie tends to allude to star-crossed lovers by Shakespeare but with recent shades. Warm Bodies is entertaining, smart and has some interesting writings despite the fact that it fudges the issue of zombies – whether it is acceptable for them to run.…

    Based solely on the novel of Divergent a movie was made lasting two hours and nine minutes. This isn't a short span of time for a movie yet, could it be pure coincidence that they left out some details. Could it have been some of the effects were to gruesome for a film rated PG-13? Or were these actions of leaving the details out more purposeful? Does it give the movie somewhat of a different meaning than the original script of the book? So it brings into question, who wrote it better the writer of the novel Veronica Roth, or the director of the film Neil Burger?…

Johnny began by badgering his sister, Barbara just like he did when they were children by saying “they’re coming to get you Barbara” while visiting their father’s gravesite.

They had lost a president and a Civil Rights Leader and many had family and friends who were sent to war. It probably seemed that everyone was doomed and no one was invincible.…

Written by August Wilson in 1985, Fences started off as a Broadway play that ended up winning the Pulitzer Prize for Best Drama in 1987. This drama focuses on exploring the African-American experience and looks deep into the heart of race relations.…
