Examples of Film Reviews 1. Changeling Sandra Hall SMH January 31‚ 2009 CHANGELING is a lurid tabloid tale that happens to be true - apart from one or two Hollywood embellishments. On all available evidence‚ for instance‚ its real-life heroine‚ Christine Collins‚ bore absolutely no resemblance to Angelina Jolie. Jolie’s Christine - with her scarlet pout‚ her cloche hat pulled low over the brow and her dark eyes gleaming with unshed tears‚ is a cartoonist’s delight. But I’m not carping

We all have the same needs: food‚ shelter‚ love‚ acceptance‚ support‚ etc. but little do we know that the difference between groups is minor compared to the similarities we all share. One of our many similarities is behavior including: selfishness‚ and the act of believing what we want to believe; one may analyze this among reading “The Other Wife” by Colette and “War” by Luigi Pirandello. It is our instinct to try and best each other‚ even in times of great communal strife as well as silencing others

this movie did not do that. From a clinical standpoint‚ The Soloist is one of the few movies that accurately depicts schizophrenia. Before we meet Nathanial‚ before seeing his disheveled appearance and his disorganized life‚ we’re introduced to something pure – Nathanial’s music. I think this is an integral part of the movie‚ which helps the viewer to understand that while it’s easy to judge a person battling schizophrenia‚ there needs to be unbiased approaches. The beginning of this movie

??Love?? What is love? Love is not what you assume it is. That ’s why so many marriages end in divorce. People get a hormonal rush when they ’re around a person and think they ’re in love‚ and believe that person is "the one." Not even close. True love creeps up on you over a long period of time. It ’s NOT that powerful feeling of "I must have this person." Instead‚ it ’s a slow build-up. When you truly love someone you don ’t have to ask yourself if it ’s love. You ’re not even ASKING yourself

whole movie is Malcolm speaking aloud his essay for the application of the school. Throughout the whole movie Malcolm is faced with a lot of difficult situations that test his moral and I think it’s good for people to see people in situations like that to remind them to act smart and really think about the consequences. However that being said‚ I still think the rating should be rated R because children under 17 definitely shouldn’t watch this movie‚ I probably shouldn’t have watched this movie either

It shows the multiple attempts by the group on Hitler’s life with both how they were able to get in close enough with Hitler‚ and the ways that their attempts failed or were flawed. The movie brings us into the
