Movie Review on "The Egyptian" The movie "The Egyptian" (1954) depicts many Egyptian values throughout the feature. Although the movie is strongly based on myth‚ there is a little historical accuracy to the plot. The movie follows the actions of the main character‚ Sinuhe‚ who is physician and companion to the pharaoh‚ Horemheb. Sinuhe longs to be with Nefer‚ an upper class noble who takes everything that he offers her‚ only to leave him with nothing to his name. After fleeing Egypt and

Movie Review: Centurion I chose this movie because it was about the Romans which I enjoy studying. I also enjoy movies about war. There was lots of blood such the reviews told.

This movie was loosely based on the massacre of the ninth legion and centered on the supposed disappearance of the Ninth Legion in Caledonia in AD 117. The ninth legion was commanded by Quintus Petillius

Korean Films: “My Sassy Girl” & “The Classic” Characteristics of Korean and Chinese Films We think that the characteristics that make Korean films different from Chinese films are‚ first and foremost‚ the most basic structure or skeleton that they use when making their movies. We think that Chinese movies‚ compared to Korean movies‚ are usually more complex. Chinese movies usually have many parts that needs to be put together to see the bigger picture of the movie. In contrast with this

A film that uses 3D technology and special effects in the best possible way; Gravity will serve as the benchmark for excellence in space thrillers for years to come. The opening sequence transfixes viewers with a beautiful‚ almost ethereal wide shot of Earth from the view of space‚ and slowly moves in toward three dots that turn out to be the full cast of the film (really).

The Crucible Movie Review The Crucible is a movie based on the true story about the witch trials that were held in Salem‚ Massachusetts in 1692. The movie is historically correct is the aspect that the trials started off from a group of girls trying to stay out of trouble by accusing people in the village that they casted their spirit onto them to make the young ladies act like they were being harmed by the so called bewitched. The movie is very good and properly explains how the girls started

Movie Review- The Core The movie that I choose to review is The Core directed by Jon Amiel. This movie portrays an end of the world scenario that is right down an astronomer’s alley. Unlike most Sci-Fis that take the approach of some alien invasion or some possible threat of a major impact‚ The Core depicts destruction from within. The movie opens with interference within Earth’s electromagnetic field. This event causes randomized disasters that gets the government’s attention. The government
