Term Life Film Analysis
Term Life is a story of Nick Barrow who plans heist but does not participate in them.

A failed heist resulted in the death of the son of a cartel leader, Victor Fuente. Victor believed his kid was killed by Nick and wanted to kill Nick for it. The movie was slow in the beginning but as the movie progressed I started enjoying it.

Nick kept away from his daughter, Hailee because he did not want her to be involved in his world of crime. However, he had to went Victor sent his men after her. Hailee did not want anything to do with him either slowly grew to understand and love him.

It was interesting to see how Nick uses his understanding of human behavior to plan out his work and how he uses it to hide in plain sight - especially when he

    Boondock Saints

    The movie starts off with two very religious Irish brothers Connor and Murphy McManus who decide God has chosen them to rid the city of Boston of sinners. They begin their calling merely by accident, when a couple of Russian mob members cause a fight in their buddy Docs bar; resulting in Connor launching a toilet off the fire escape and jumping off to save his brother Murphy. Agent Paul Smecker saw their actions clearly as self-defense and they were let off the hook. During one of their killings they encountered their buddy David Della Rocco who then accompanied them on several other missions until their final killing together where Italian mob boss Papa Joe Yakavetta killed him in front of the brothers. Agent Smecker realized that he agreed with what the brothers were doing and later decided to help them in secret. Connor and Murphy may have lost a dear friend but they gained back a father they thought they’d lost a long time ago. He had been sent to kill them, with no knowledge that they were his sons, but when he heard them say the old family prayer as they mourned Rocco he joined in and that’s when it dawned on all of them.

    Breathing Under Water Analysis on Nick Andreas

    One way Nick changed was that in the beginning of the story he went from being an annoying pest to now being more certain of things. In the beginning of the story Nick was very annoying. Caitlin filed a restraining order against Nick because of the abusive behavior Nick was treating her with back when they were dating around December. Instead of Nick saying to Caitlin when he saw her “ I’m sorry Caitlin” he says “Why are you doing this Cat?” “I thought we had something special.”(FLINN2) This was Nicks way of being annoying because I’m pretty sure Caitlin has heard this many times before and would have preferred something more like a sorry for all that he has put her through. Another example of Nick having annoying behavior is when he’s in the violence class and Mario asks him why he was they and he says “I don’t know why I’m here. I lost it once and slapped my…

    It 's a delicate subject. And it tells a hard story. Because while Nick is (obviously) not without his faults, he most certainly has his good points as well. And as I read I found myself feeling... not sympathetic, exactly, but definitely feeling something, more than I thought I would.…

    An Analysis of The Great Gatsby

    From my point of view Nick does not fit with those around him upon his visit to the East egg. Tom, Daisy and Jordan are very self involved even when around each other and they don’t have a particular interest in Nick however he is very interested in them. They interrupt him and each other regularly for example ‘“this Mr Gatsby you speak of is my neighbour-” I began’ or ‘“...great, big, hulking physical specimen of a-” I hate that word hulking” objected Tom crossly. ‘Nick is very different to this as he is good at listening and is very intrigued by those around him as this new experience in the east egg is so different to that of the West. However Tom and…

    Examples Of Honesty In The Great Gatsby

    On page 64 he says, "But I am slow thinking and full of interior rules that act as they brakes on my desires, and I knew that first I had to get myself out of that tangle back home. I'd been writing letters once a week and signing them 'love, Nick,' and all I could think of was how when a certain girl played tennis, a faint moustache appeared on her upper lip. Nevertheless there was a vague understanding that had to be tactfully broken off before I was free." Nick goes by the emotions he has by the moment. He does not know what commitment is. He 'loved' this girl back home, but as soon as he found someone else attractive he suddenly forgot what made him love the girl back home. Now she would only get in the way of love. This proves love to Nick is only a possession, and when he did not have his possession with him, he found a replacement. It did not even matter to him that Miss Baker was dishonest and immoral. He was dishonest and shallow, but no different than anyone else during this…
