People before this film had very little

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 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

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.
