While each character stayed true to their role, including: the 'jock'; the 'slut'; the 'pothead' and the 'nerd', the stereotypical portrayal was not overdone. The cinematography and score did not seem overwhelming central to the experience that is this film, and did not provide distractions from the rest of the movie. Like most horror films, the scoring helped the element of suspense. In almost each scene that suspense builds, the speed and pitch of the score
Jackson equally balanced the feelings of grief, anger, and even happiness and warmth into this movie. It was suspenseful and entertaining to watch. Putting all the acting, plot line and the overall quality of the movie, I give this movie thumbs
Because of technology being so significant, we tend to use as much of it as possible in movies, or adding as many special effects and unique graphics. For instance, now in theatres, 3-D movies are the new trend, they keep the audience engaged with the movie. As for movies in the mid 1900’s, technology was not so varied, so the movies had no choice but to be basic. Currently, Movies in the 21st century are filled with adult (sexually explicit) content, profanity, and even blood and gore. Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds”, portray an unnoticed view of these elements.
It is unique for most film directors to do so, but for this film Spike Lee used his actors in perfect roles. I liked how he based the movie in one block so the audience doesn’t get confused from the story. Using one block instead of multiple cities was cool because he used multiple races to detail the story. With multiple races comes problems with
Hamlet Film Review Kenneth Branagh’s, 1996 film version of Shakespeare's Hamlet flourishes with a vigorous lead role of Hamlet played by Branagh himself. Branagh puts together a great adaption of Shakespeare's Hamlet as he stays fairly true to the text and makes it look absolutely authentic by having it filmed in Denmark at the magnificent Blenheim palace. Although this movie is quite long, it is full of surprises and will surely keep you interested with its compelling plot. The cinematography in this film at points is very good, however at points the scenes look poor and appear absolutely fake. Unlike most movies, this movie is shot in remarkable 65mm format which is considered epic photography, and is only used in special event venues.
The author’s vocabulary and diction was another thing I really liked. He used advanced vocabulary frequently, yet it was still easy to understand. The way he put the words together made it flow extremely well. The setting that John Knowles set was really good. It was easy to tell where and when the book was, from the start.
The writer and director did a splendid job making this and doing it the right way to make it perfect. This movie is a type of jumpy, intense, and heart racing action that makes you not want to pause it to go do something for a minute. The camera angles in here are very well worked on and are shown quite clearly. One example is when their boxing in the rings. When ever they box there’s always a clear view of the camera going into a bird’s eye view position to catch just some of the right hits.
Some people like comedies others romantic or dramas. What's about me I do like movies that are based on true story. Movies that has meaning in them, some point and some sense. My criteria for a good movie is that there is no acts of violence ,no strong language. Nothing silly, nothing about love that will last forever.
This film contains musical component, and that Subheadings Arm wrestling scene ‘Kinky Boots’ is a conventional British comedy. Although this film focuses on the character who is a flamboyant transvestite, the plot itself cannot surprise anyone. It is predictable, but on the other hand, the spectator can move on to From my perspective, this is the most touching scene in the whole film. There are not too many conversations going on, but those a few words have already express the character’s feelings clearly. Film Sound design can convey the emotion of character, give insight into a character’s state of mind, and sometimes what motivates their actions.
It was interesting to me how accurate the setting seemed, the baseball fields were old fashioned compared to modern fields, and the reenactment was very well done in my opinion. The movie was a reminder to me of the importance of the real struggles of those who fought for basic human rights of recognition and dignity during segregation. The movie was very sentimental, and the actors did a great job of connecting the audience to the past and setting a mood that an individual could relate to. I am glad I chose this movie because we did not go very into depth on the story behind Jackie Robinson and it gave me a better understanding and more accurate view on the struggles that African Americans faced during this time
