    Ender's Game Movie Analysis

    Gavin Hood's adaptation of Orson Scott Card’s Ender’s Game was an okay film it was neither great and neither was it bad. The movie does not include how the buggers communicate with each other, and battle school looks different from what I pictured it to be. The movie makes look the same and just move some things around. The way the movie shows the battle room is still pretty cool, because you can float around and do some awesome things while floating around. In the book the battle room would change the environment every time after a battle was finished. The battle room has these big led squares for cover. In the book ender did use the cover that had led lights on them, but he also used himself as camouflage,…

    Analysis Of Pan's Labyrinth

    Guillermo del Toro’s 2006 film Pan’s Labyrinth is about a little girl, Ofelia, who moves with her mother to live with her new stepfather, Captain Vidal. Ofelia comes to learn that she is princess of the Underworld and, with the help from faeries, must complete magical tasks in order to escape Earth and her cruel stepfather and return to her throne in the mystical world (Pan’s Labyrinth). Del Toro’s main purpose of this film is to parallel the monsters and tasks Ofelia must overcome to fascist 1940s Spain (Kermode). However, with deeper analysis, the monsters may also represent universal societal issues such as mistreatment of the poor by the wealthy, the premature death of childhood innocence and wonder, and abuse. Del Toro’s monsters in Pan’s…

    Critical Review of Pan's Labyrinth

    In today’s society, fairytales are most commonly reserved for children. Our fascination for these incredible tales slowly dies out as we mature, and we replace our interests accordingly. This progression is clearly reflected in the films we choose to go out and see. Today’s adult moviegoers will almost always choose drama, comedy, and action genres over fantasy. Pan’s Labyrinth (Del Toro 2006) successfully brings fairytales back into the realm of adult cinema by combining horror and fantasy with the factual drama of the Spanish Civil War. This film is a rare treat, for it seamlessly blends historical reality with the supernatural. The combination of the two is so fluid that it is actually quite difficult to assign it to any sort of a genre. In today’s world, your average movie-going experience can be both bland and predictable, but I can assure you that this film is neither.…

    Pan's Labyrinth Analysis

    The dark fantasy film Pan’s Labyrinth is a fascinating example of creative story-telling. This film focuses on so many aspects between Ofelia’s imaginary world and the real world, including her stepfather fighting for the Francoist regime. This little girl is uprooted to a military outpost in Fascist-ruled Spain commanded by her new stepfather, the Captain. The reoccurring contrast between Ofelia’s world and her stepfathers world stood out to me, through elements of brutality, innocence, war, imagination, disobedience, and choice. The tests Ofelia must face are chilling and nightmarish, they mirror not just the cruelty of the battles between the army and the rebels, but equally the deep loss and insecurity which Ofelia faces. Del Toro brilliantly intertwines between the two stories, so that we easily follow the action in two worlds simultaneously.…

    Some conceal their differences while some use their differences to an advantage. From a young age Burton has directed unique films. A great example of this is his 1982 Hansel and Gretel, which aired only once due to the strangeness in its entirety. Burton uses non-diegetic sounds, low key lighting, and long shots in his work to display how one who overcomes his fear of being different has the potential for success.…

    The birth scene has a gloomy tone and color scheme, suggesting that this method of living is something humans should avoid. Since this film is a futuristic film about the use of the findings from the Human Genome Project, this film is warning us about the possible misuse of the new genetic information. Geneticists are an important job in the film because after one second, the blood is being tested and geneticists can determine your life and future. This determines how long your life will be and what diseases you may face, but not how happy or what you will face in life. It is different from a fortune teller. A fortune teller tells the outside danger that you may face, however, this warns you about…
