Days of Summer, 2009

Days of Summer, 2009

 This movie’s genre is rom-com. Tom is a boy that believes fateful love will come to him. One day a girl called Summer came to his office as a secretary. Tom fell in love to her in very short time. He thought she is his destiny. So he tried hard to get friendly with Summer. At first, they can’t approach together. Because Summer doesn’t like to receive fetter from other people. She doesn't believe destiny and also she doesn't like having a boyfriend or falling in love. The reason why is she is a very independent woman. So Tom and Summer just remained for a friend. But time flies and their relationship developed near to love. 

This movie seems like a typical rom-com movies, but it isn't. As typical rom-com movie, main boy character is romantic, pure and he has friends that give him an advice for his love. But that's all. Many people can think that Tom loved Summer more deeply. But for me I think Summer loved Tom more deeply. Because Tom was a passive guy. In many cases, Summer approached him first. Tom wants Summer to adjust to him such as his value or his idea. Maybe Tom loved himself who loves Summer. So I want to watch a movie in Summer’s version that I can know about Summer’s mind. At the end of the movie Tom's value about love is totally changed into different way. Summer influenced him. Therefore, the last scene was more impressive to me. Also, this movie has unique structure. It divided into some sections by time and the director reassembled sections. So I could feel mood swings more realistically.

Rating ★★★★

The Professional

This movie is a story about a professional killer Leon and a little girl Mathilna. At the beginning of this movie, Leon organized a perfect murder and escaped calmly. It shows us Leon is really a cruel killer and contact with the flowing story, which he is actually cute and never feel safety. Then he encountered a miserable girl called Mathilna whose family all got murdered. They lived together and gradually created a complex but reasonable relationship mixed with father-daughter and lovers. Finally, to protect Mathilna, Leon sacrificed himself, and Mathilna  moved out of Leon's only friend ---a plant, and planted it in the land to let Leon live "forever".
This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Director Luc Besson created two characters witch look totally different but encountered because of several reasons. It seems like incredible, but if you watch them deeply, it is make sense. Although Leon is a professional killer, he is actually a ten year old boy inside of his heart. He feels unsafe every moment and even have to sleep on the chair with his gun. He isn't good at talking and he likes to drink milk. All his action in his daily life prove that he is a lonely "boy". So as Mathilna. She lives in a poor family and suffered a lot. She feels lonely too, and that's why when they encountered, they both so appreciate each other and finally fall in love with each other. The reason why I like this movie so much is because it shows us not all things are like what we see on the surface. If something looks unbelievable, it must has some reason that you don't know. All you have to do is dig down deeply and find it, because "What exist is reasonable."

OZ the great and powerful

     


                One day when shady circus magician Oscar Diggs is running away from circus in Kansas into the wonderful land of OZ.

So he must find out who is good and who is evil before it's too late.
 
                This movie is very good in the use of 3D gimmickry, it leads the viewer into a completely different world. And this movie it's really good for the kids like another film about the fairytale. Help them learn don't tell the lies if you telling something lies you can turn into a vicious witch cruel. So every kids or students remember that if you don't want to be a ugly witch, just tell the truth.

Mama

Mama.

                              

         


             The story is about on the day their parents die, Sisters Lilly and Victoria vanish in the woods.

Their Uncle Lucas and his girlfriend try to find them after that, five years later the girls are found alive in a cabin in to the wood. And Lucas with his girlfriend welcome them into their home. "But as Annabel (Lucas girlfriend) tries to reintroduce the children to a normal life, she finds that someone or something still wants to tuck them in at night". (quote from: Google).

            

            This movie can make you feel a little scared but at the end intertwined emotional footage. After i watched the movie, i understood how much love mothers give for their kids?, they can leave everything to take care of their kids. You can see in the story, the ghost mother took care the girls until they found by Lucas, but the ghost still went to Lucas's house to play with them and isolated them of Annabel. And in the end, author did a good job when the young girl went with the ghost mother go to heaven and her sister stayed with Lucas's family. I think that will be a bad ending but that better for two sides because they all love two little girls very much.

interstellar

Interstellar is a complex movie including a lot of theories of physics that firstly puzzled me. It is not only complex but also a movie telling about love between father and daughter.
It tells an exciting story about outer space. Because  the earth were going to destroy. NASA send several excellent astronauts to the universe to found the outlet. Astronauts Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway journey to a distant galaxy on a desperate mission to save humanity. To save his daughter and the human being. cooper went to the journey and finally complete the mission with the help by his clever daughter.


I have to say that this movie was a excellent movie which combine science fiction and love so well. especially the plot that when the Matthew McConaughey come back to the capsule and see the video that received from earth. Time is completely change, his son and daughter are get old. He was weeping as he seeing the video. I was deeply touched at that moment and cannot help weeping the same like the poor father. To be honestly, this is only science fiction movie that made me cry. It is really a masterpiece that must-see for everyone.

San Andreas(2015)

San Andreas (2015)

 

 This movie is a combined genre with action, drama and thriller. There is a man named Raymond and he has one daughter. However, he got divorced, so he and his daughter can't live together. Raymond is a rescuing pilot and save many people in his life. One day, San Andreas fault has broken and the earthquake occurred in the magnitude 9. Because of an earthquake, buildings were destroyed and this earthquake also occurred tsunami in San Francisco. At the first time, people didn't believe there will be an earthquake in San Andreas fault. However, it was really terrible disaster. Ray who rushed into this huge dangerous disaster and started to rescue his wife and his daughter. Despite his wife and his daughter was far away from him.

 I’m interested in disaster movies like <2012> or <The day after tomorrow>. The reason why is disaster movies make me exciting and make curious about the ending of the movie. But there are several boring things in this movie. First of all, this movie was too obvious story unlike other disaster movie. In , <The day after tomorrow> there is a girl and around this girl, there is a little stupid boy. Thus, in the ending of movie, finally a girl's father rescue them. Also, in this movie, it has very similar structure with <The day after tomorrow>. Also, Ray’s family was too lucky. I thought that luck was only just for them. Even all of the buildings were collapsed and the earth was shaking, Ray's family was quite safe. But the scene was really impressive that destroyed San Francisco greatly. The movie expressed an earthquake realistically.

RATING :  ★★★(3/5)

The Review of My Big Fat Greet Wedding

This romantic comedy film is a funny one. If you like romantic or comedy movie, this one must be a good choice for you. It tells a romantic and humorous love story between American people and Greece people. A Greece lady Toula Portokalos  fell in love with an American man called  Ian Miller. However, Toula's father disagreed her daughter to marry a un-Greece man .And then they are struggle  for their love and finally they got married and have a little girl.

The movie is a funny one and I like it because it not only tells us we should fight for our love no matter how many difficulties we may experience but also encourages us to open our heart to show more acceptance for different cultures. what's more, one of the plots touched me deeply. In the wedding, Toula's father gave a house to her daughter for a married gift.  Toula was crying and her father did too, and then they hugged together with weeping. I cried at this moment because of its affection. The love between parents and the child  is eternal, nothing can change that.
