drama/mystery genre? Well there is one movie in particular that I would like to talk to you about. This movie is full of drama‚ suspense and mystery. It is titled The Prestige. This is my favorite movie of all-time and is based on the Christopher Priest novel with the same title. This film is engaging and keeps the audience guessing throughout just like a magician would do during a show. This movie uses flashbacks to perfection. At first you come into the movie confused and not knowing what is going

Exchaliber Exchaliaber is a movie about King Arthur and tells the story on how he came to be. Even though they this may or may not be true Arthur was a great king they said. There are different versions of this story. This movie isn’t that greatest of all films but it sure got the point quite across. There are many scenes in this movie that show lot of chivalry but what are some great examples? The movie is greatly edited and sometimes a bit confusing and you don’t really understand what is going

ended up living in the bus for a total of 113 days and then dying. Both the movie and book of Into the Wild explore the adventure that Chris McCandless takes‚ while the book focuses on comparing Chris to other people and the relationships he had‚ the movie focuses specifically on the life story and adventure of Chris McCandless‚ therefore the movie is better than the book. The number one thing I noticed in the movie that was different in the book is that Carine (his sister) tells the entire story

When this movie started‚ I automatically rolled my eyes thinking of over dramatic vegetarian PETA advocates and animal lovers. I never understood the concept of not eating something and cutting out a whole food group just because people refuse to accept the cycle of life. These ignorant pre conceived notions were quickly forgotten once the first scene was of‚ Michael Pollan‚ who was a great contributor to this movie. He was shown at a diner‚ eating a juicy hamburger‚ which he claims is his favorite

I went to the movie theater the other day. I saw Will Smith’s new movie‚ Concussion. I saw it at the AMC in Rosedale. I wasn’t even planning on seeing it because I had work but I was 3 hours late so I was like what’s the point. I went to the theater and had to decide what to watch. It was between Concussion and Star Wars for me. I chose Concussion because it was shorter and I’ve never seen Star Wars before so I wouldn’t understand what was going on. I proceeded with my ticket but my eyes caught the

Andrew Drick The Goonies It came from my cousin Charles who said the Goonies was one of his favorite childhood movies. After all the research I did and questions I asked I can say without a doubt that this movie is the greatest movie I have ever seen. How else can he say something like that? The fact is that he must not have had a good imagination as a kid. I cant explain what "it" is but when you sit back and experience a movie with "it"‚ it will be forever instilled in your memory

Last week‚ we watched a movie called “Babies”. This movie is talking around four babies through their first year after their birth. Through the movie‚ you can see how babies develop in different cultural backgrounds and living areas. Ponijao comes from Opuwo‚ Namibia. Bayar comes from Byanchandmani‚ Mongolia. Both of them come from the rural area. The area they live in is close to the natural world. Both of them have one or more than one sibling to play with. They learn the world from the nature

actions truly put the the big picture together rather than a dialogue. Beyond exploring the remarkable early stages of life for four babies‚ what did this movie help explore and understand about all humans? The movie really highlighted the importance of mother figures and there importance of child development. There is a huge difference how my country raises children and how other countries raise their children. Every person in the world comes from a mother figure in their lives and will live their
