Bridesmaids is a terrifically funny‚ smart‚ and emotional ensemble comedy. Some may say it’s the female version of The Hangover‚ while others may think it’s quite similar to Bride Wars. This movie pulls off the amazingly uncanny trick of being both brutal and gentle at the same time. I highly recommend this movie to all audiences over the age of 17. The unexpected truth of being a bridesmaid is revealed‚ but in the end‚ Kristen Wigg (Annie) persuades you that there is a greater light at the end of the

Crash Essay The movie Crash conveys the message that conflicts between races is due to a lack of understanding and communication. Though the central meaning of Crash is centered around race‚ I think the movie has a deeper meaning. I think this movie speaks about people in general; how we treat and interact with one another and how we think of one another. In general people think everything racist is between whites and blacks‚ but if you look closely in this movie you see minorities and people of

conjuring is a horror story with a twist of terror. In the beginning we don’t actually see the spirits‚ which allows us to use our imagination (terror). Towards the middle and the end of the movie‚ we see all the ghosts and spirits‚ but there aren’t any nasty details (horror).

Under the category ‘supernatural’ we find the sub-genre ‘the

this is perhaps more true to ancient life. It is true that in the original Odyssey‚ men cried more than men now‚ (in our time).I especially loved seeing all the gods and goddesses in the movie. I liked goddess Athena a lot. She was definitely a highlight in this movie. Her eyes are very beautiful in this movie. With a twinkle in her eye‚ she sends Odysseus off to be brave because‚ it seems she is rather fond of him. Another highlight is the horse and ships. The Trojan Horse makes was very well made
