    Exodus Movie Analysis

    I believe that Ridley Scott did not accurately portray the biblical version of the Hebrew Exodus. Many things portrayed in the movie either didn’t happen in the bible or were very different than the Exodus. Some examples would be that Moses had a different personality in the movie, Moses didn’t perform the three miracles, God wasn’t a little boy, and several other things. These are a few of the problems that lead the movie away from the text.…

    When adapting a well-known and loved play into a movie, the adaptor must keep in mind how the audience will react to a new version of a beloved story. An example of this is A Raisin in the Sun, which was adapted into a movie in 2008. Lorraine Hansberry wrote the original play and Paris Qualles adapted that play into a TV movie. The main themes of the story are family, faith, and hope. Following the narrative of a lower-class family living in Chicago in 1959, the play deals with racial tension, family issues, the journey from childhood to adulthood, and how each individual person impacts others around them, within the family unit and out in the world. Some minor issues with the play were resolved in the movie, such as the role of women and how they did not seem to have lives outside of the apartment. The 2008 movie adaptation stayed true to the original framework of the play while enriching the story for a modern audience.…

    When thinking of “The Lego Movie” it’s easy to dismiss it as another movie made to entertain the minds of 4 to 11 year olds. A movie created just for parents to get one solid hour of peace from their kids but it’s surprisingly the opposite. The movie surprises its viewers with cleverly written jokes, action packed scenes, and heartwarming characters.…

    A seminal moment in the film “The Matrix” is where Neo chooses the red pill from Morpheous to see how deep the rabbit hole goals (rather than the other option of just returning to the matrix). Upon teaching Neo that his life had been part of the matrix, Morpheous said to him “Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?” The world around you could be something completely different from what you are currently perceiving it to be. This is known as a skeptical hypothesis and occurs when you are radically deceived about the world and yet your experience of the world…

    If you’ve never seen the film ‘Forrest Gump,' you need to clear a couple hours and experience it! This film won six Oscars, sort of hard to say you would be wasting your time. Most people enjoy the memorable catch phrases and the flash from the past journey it takes through the twentieth century. However, a principal character “Jenny," whom Forrest falls deeply in love with upon first sight, may become your least favorite character. The movie ‘Forrest Gump’ can leave the audience with mixed emotions indeed!…

    Many people feel that book to movie adaptations give the readers a chance to connect with the characters and visualize what happens in the book. While many others believe that many important things that happen in the book may be left out or altered, changing the plot of the book entirely.

    There are many people out there who don’t really care for the comic styles of the Monty Python crew and their goofy way of portraying humor. If one was to sit down and watch a movie and the choices were either a serious newer movie that has obvious meaning and the other was Monty Python and the Holy Grail a cult-classic. The choice would probably depend on the person, but most likely the answer would be the first movie. There are many reasons though as to why Monty Python and the Holy Grail would be a good choice. Through the acting, the special effects and the intellectual humor Monty Python and the Holy Grail proves to a good choice of movie to watch after all.…

    El Dorado Springs High School put on Shrek The Musical last week (under the direction of Nicole Smith), an adaptation of DreamWorks Shrek the children's cartoon movie. The actors weren't really given a very good stage to perform on as well as a good backstage. The cast and crew of Shrek the musical did a good job of using of what they had. For such a small stage and a small school the production wasn't bad as a whole. The set did a sufficient job at letting us know where we're at and what's going on with the scene. The lead actors of the where John King as Shrek the Ogre, Allaura Stockbauer as Fiona, Caleb Miller as Donkey, and Caleb Alexander as Lord Farquaad did a good job on the acting side, but since this is a musical their vocals could have been more impressive.…
