    When I watched the film “Wit” at first, I became curious to the reason why it was entitled “Wit”. The overall plot of the story seems so simple but there are a lot of twists which become clear as the story unfolds. In the latter part of the film, I realized that it has been given the title wit because in the end, Vivian recognized that what is more important than intellectual learning is the human compassion that she gets just when she needs it the most.…

    Scott Pilgrim vs. The World (2010) is the action packed journey of a misguided young man desperately trying to navigate his own existence. In the film Scott must fight the conflictions within himself and the seven evil exes of his love interest. Based off the comic book series by Bryan Lee O’Malley, this film has the architecture and story of a’ live-action’ comic book where it creates a universe based off modern pop culture references such as video games, nerd romance and comics. Bordwell and Thompson (pp. 330, 2010) would define the film as one that breaks the conventions of its genre essentially because it encompasses elements of several genres such as sci-fi, romance, action and comedy. An audience that views Scott Pilgrim vs. The World would possibly be expecting (based on the cover art and advertisements) an action and romance driven story which is partially true but there is much more to it. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World has intentionally been set up to be individual and unique in its approach which prompts for its analysis.…

    Fight Club Movie Review

    • 1282 Words
    • 6 Pages

    Many of the visual effects in Fight Club have been overshadowed by effect-based movies (LOTR, The Matrix) but upon closer examination I found that they were perfect in their own right. They depicted a chaotic sense of disengagement, not only from society but also from oneself. Two of the most technically advanced shot were CGIs (computer generated enhancements) of Jack's IKEA apartment. One was a tracking shot, entering through the door and circling his apartment before zooming to a macro shot of the back of his fridge, that apparently contained a gas leak that in turn led to the demise of his apartment. The other apartment-based shot was almost comical, a shot circling through his apartment labelling his designer furniture and appliances, not unlike a magazine catalogue. Although not a breakthrough in the world of visual effects, when combined with the atmosphere of Jacks cynical, mundane voiceovers and brilliant cinematography it makes for an enchanting shot that gives a very true to life insight of the average material-bound American male.…
