Avatar: Movie Review Some movies tend to be so drab and repetitive and end up seeming to lengthy‚ but Avatar is the complete opposite. Not only was this movie creative‚ mind-opening‚ and very well written‚ it also had a very great message hidden within its text. It closely related to the predicament between the Native Americans and the English settlers. The sprit and message of this movie are really shown when the Na’vi and the Humans fight for the land the rightfully belongs to the Na’vi‚ thus

Kramer v Kramer is a movie filled with opportunities for choosing sides. But what actually matters in this movie isn’t who’s right or wrong‚ but if all the characters involved are able to behave according to their own better nature. It starts of by showing a marriage filled with unhappiness and ego and ends with two single people who have both learned important things. There is a child caught in the middle but this isn’t a movie about the plight of the kid but about the dilemma of the parents. Usually

Anyone can succeed through hard work and persistence. That was the original American Dream‚ and that notion has somewhat been at the heart of American culture through history. However‚ composers F. Scott Fitzgerald‚ author of ’The Great Gatsby ’ (1926)‚ and Sam Mendes‚ director of the movie ’American Beauty ’ (1999)‚ explain in their texts that the pursuit of the American Dream is futile.

Lanzafama English III 22 March 2014 The Great Gatsby Movie Review This movie does not represent the America I live in. There are some blatant similarities such as the scattered lights of New York. However‚ most of American culture has changed since the time period depicted in the film. Vehicles and phones have evolved drastically‚ people have established more respectable morals (“guy code”)‚ and polo is not as popular of a sport as its shown in the movie. Today‚ gas prices are through the roof due to

Themes are prominent statements in both film and novels that help to add substance to characters and plot; language or film techniques are used to express these themes. American Beauty‚ directed by Sam Mendes‚ was released in 1999 and is a satirical insight into the lives of American families during the 1990’s.
