role to this movie in being a box office success is the actors performance and the story itself. Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter‚ Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley‚ and Emma Watson as Hermione Granger are a great trio for this type of movie. Daniel Radcliffe has the perfect face for an innocent eleven-year old-boy while he does have the look of valor and bravery in his eyes. Rupert Grint has the mischievous look of a procrastinator and jovial boy who in the movie is perfect

When I was younger I thought that I would enjoy Field of Dreams (Robinson‚ Kinsella‚ 1989) because it was a baseball movie. I remember watching it and not liking it because baseball was secondary to the actual plot. Since I was so young I never caught the actual meaning of the movie or what lesson it was trying to portray. This movie is about second chances‚ and having a dream that you feel is lost. It is also about having faith in your dreams even if they seem unreachable. The power of belief is

Here comes trouble. 1. If you want to see a grown man cry‚ make him watch ’Marley and Me’. It is based on a true story‚ a best-selling memoir by John Grogan. The whole movie is hilarious but the ending will bring even your grumpy‚ old uncle to tears. 2. It was years ago when I watched ’Marley and Me’ for the first time‚ my brother downloaded it and because I couldn’t see a cover I was truly convinced that it is a film about reggae troubadour Bob‚ which I’m a big fan of. Turned out that it is

The movie Artificial Intelligence was entertaining because of its exciting scenes‚ therefore making it more pleasurable to watch.

The meca David was made so that he could love a human once it was programmed into his system. The problem with this was that he would have unconditional love for his "mother" but would be tremendously difficult and take a great deal

There was this time I went out on a blind date. OK‚ not totally blind‚ because I’d met this guy on the Internet‚ and had sort of seen pictures. But this is back in the day when Internet dating only first kicked off and digital cameras weren’t what they are now. Anyway‚ you get the picture - the photos weren’t that clear. I thought it was a bit weird that when we were corresponding the guy kept on asking how tall I was‚ making a real big deal out of it. In one email he said he even got out a measuring

scenery presents the idea that they have money than they need and they can do whatever they want whenever they want. Their scenery is a recreation of European historical grandeur‚ a fact that the film is keen to demonstrate. <br> <br>Symbolism in the movie was also awesome‚ I really appreciated how the director added a few twists of his own which I will come to shortly. Particularly memorable is the scene where Daisy weeps over Gatsby’s shirts. Is she really weeping for their beauty ? This was really

I have to say that this is one good movie‚ its pretty different from your average WWII movie. Its not as propaganda based as your American war movies like saving private Ryan or pearl harbour. In this movie we get to see the war effort from the Russian communist point of view. Its like a hide and seek thriller that uses the battle of Stalingrad as a disguise for the battle of courage and determination that we see going on‚ on the big screen. A lot of historians say that the battle of Stalingrad was

and Slim Pickens (as Major T.J Kong). Dr. Strangelove isn’t among today’s expensive‚ tasteless Sci-Fi films‚ and especially because it was released in 1964. Instead‚ the movie was shot in three principle settings; The President’s War room‚ Brigadier General Jack Ripper’s office‚ and the inside of a B-52 bomber. The movie doesn’t have too many movements either; President Muffley and his Cabinet remain seated around a table‚ Major T.J. Kong and his flight crew is confined to the cockpit‚ and General
