Introduction

Careful examination of a person’s behavior can sometimes be the most challenging part. People may not open up about what they are going through or what they are experiencing. It is upon an individual who has proper counseling skills to look at a person and come up with the correct diagnosis of the problem in question. Not all the time would one come up with the correct diagnosis, but the essence is to develop a plan of action with respect to the disability of the individual. The movie ‘Towelhead’ provides a challenge of conceptualization (Ball, 2008). The movie provides a broad converse over ...

Super Size Me, the 2004 documentary directed by and starring Morgan Spurlock, explored Spurlock’s own experimentation with going on a McDonald’s-only diet for a consecutive thirty days. Being a vegetarian and generally active person, this transformation became incredibly dramatic, with dramatic changes in weight, mood, chemical makeup, sex drive and more. The documentary poses the question of how culpable McDonald’s customers are in their own health habits, or whether or not McDonald’s themselves are responsible for the increasing obesity and health problems found in America. Looking at these questions, and the documentary itself, through the ethical perspectives of ...

Chinese cinema has always been at the forefront of international cinema. Despite it being only the 4th largest industry in the world, it has still managed to create an impact on American and European audiences.

Characteristics of Hong Kong cinema gave rise to anti-heroes whom went against type but were heroes at the end of the day.

The study of irony is rather broad and studying irony in film is as challenging as studying irony in drama or literature. Christopher Guest’s Waiting for Guffman falls in a range of humorist tradition in which small-town culture is treated with irony and nostalgia (Frye 122). Through representations of small-town culture, irony in the film asks the audience where they stand on the issues of meaning, knowledge, subjectivity and values. Waiting for Guffman is full of implicit and ironic messages, and the goal of this critical analysis is to give thoughtful consideration to them.
The film does not ...

For André Bazin, the famous film critic and theorist from France, cinemas were a realist medium. This is why majority of film theorists would perhaps argue that that if he got a look at the computer-animated film WALL·E (2008) by Disney/Pixar, he would turn over in his grave. His theories revolved around the notion that there is always a mummy complex underlying the origin of any form of art, including cinema. Bazin’s notion suggests that art struggles to immortalize the mortal, to preserve the physical existence on screen. According to Bazin, the medium that eliminates most of the distance between ...

The issue of feminism in the film industry is a common topic for controversial discussions. Many writers are more popular than others because of the ways in which feminism surfaces as the driving force behind their presentations.

Movie Review:

While not seen as entirely award-worthy the latest installment in the “Fast and Furious” franchise has proven to be just as over the top as its predecessors. Centered on a dynamic pair in actors Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, along with their fellows in crime and racing, the storyline has developed from a peek into the world of underground street racing to a tale that involves far more than just the run of the mill action movie. Few could have predicted with any accuracy that the first film would spawn another, and another, and finally lead into the fan-favorite ...

Creating the Image of a Supervillain in Six Minutes

Superhero films are expected to offer an explosion of action, and starting the film with an action scene sets the viewers’ expectations high. The initial scene of Christopher Nolan’s “Batman: The Dark Knight” gives viewers an adrenaline rush, which makes them feel even more excited about the rest of the film. However, in this film, the initial scene has an even more important function because it introduces the film’s antagonist, the Joker. The film relies on viewers’ prior knowledge of the character in order to reveal the main antagonist of the film in this scene. Even though ...

I liked Dante’s peak because it starred two of my favorite movie personalities, and there was enough action to keep my interest. As far as the geology as portrayed in the movie, the movie makes does a very good job of ensuring that the physical geology is represented very close to the real appearance. The many, though not all respects, the depiction of the eruptive dangers of volcanoes come very close to the mark. This is especially so with regards to the massive eruptive power released during a volcanic eruption. The Cascade Range stratovolcanoes of Alaska erupt explosively and release ...

Some individuals are concerned about the increasing activity that is OccupyWallStreet. In our own town, there are even some individuals demonstrating here, and individuals are concerned, especially those in power and authority.

Introduction

Much of the human suffering and economic disadvantages that occurred during the Great Depression (1929-1933) were a result of the boom mentality and unregulated business practices of the 1920s. People with a corrupt kind of business acumen exploited the weakest segments of society in the poorest regions. Praying on a naïve boom psychology, businessmen led a devastating attack on the Midwest that ultimately was not curbed by politicians or financial institutions until the middle 1930s. New businesses exploited weak government controls and took on many of the same exploitative practices as the Robber Baron businessmen of the 19th ...

The Personals

The movie was shot in 1998 by Chen Kou-Fu. The next year the movie was presented at the Cannes Festival. The story described in the movie, in my opinion, is rather banal. There is a woman who is rather busy and does not have time for her personal life. However, she is at that very age when everybody around her has a family. She decided to solve the problem with a partner by simply posting an ad in a newspaper. Soon she gets more than a hundred calls. The “potential” partners are rather strange: beginning with a restaurant manager who adores shoes and ending with a ...

(1).Typically, anyone one who has been injured because of the negligence of another is entitled to recover two types of damages, compensatory damages and punitive damages. Compensatory damages are meant to compensate for the emotional, financial, and physical damage that the victim has suffered. There are two types of compensatory damages, monetary losses (financial losses), and non-monetary losses (pain and suffering caused by injury, etc.). Punitive damages are meant to punish the person who has caused the injury, and these damages are only awarded under special circumstances. It is apparent that the damages that a plaintiff in a personal injury ...

Introduction

A great script full with twists and unpredictability influences the success of a film to a great extent. The 2003 award-winning film adaptation, a comedy drama written by Charlie Kaufman and directed by Spike Jonze exemplifies creativity in filmmaking. It is wickedly playful in construction and records the torments of a screenwriter who is not adept at writing a movie about orchids. Ironically, the film manages to have the story effectively told in a captivating and exceptionally creative manner by incorporating two lines of stories into one. The film narrates the true story of Charlie Kaufman and his struggles to adapt the book The Orchid ...

When Lives Collide

Paul Haggis’s 2004 film Crash is a powerful view of the intersecting lives of many people and families of different races, classes, economic status, and careers in modern day Los Angeles. It is difficult to summarize the movie because there are so many important characters and intertwining storylines. There is Graham (Don Cheadle), a police officer whose mother is a junkie and brother is a criminal. Daniel (Michael Pena) is a locksmith and a kind-hearted family man not trusted by some of his customers because of his tattoos and tough looks. Farhad (Shaun Toub), a Persian shopkeeper, buys a gun to protect his family. Rick (Brendan ...

The 1968 film The Green Berets, starring and co-directed by John Wayne, presents a very pro-American and jingoistic view of the Vietnam War, sugarcoating the more violent and abhorrent aspects of the US Army’s activities during the war in favor of a more benevolent, patriotic mindset. The film follows Colonel Mike Kirby, leader of a Green Beret Unit, as he fights in South Vietnam and defends his men against actions taken by the North Vietnamese. In this essay, several aspects of the film will be critiqued, comparing the viewpoint explored in the film with the truth of US Army actions during ...

The video was about the discussion of how a simple change in body language can lead a person to a big change. In other words, a small tweak can change provide a big change to someone’s life (Cuddy, 2012). At first, Cuddy talked about how simple body language can create perception towards a person. Few examples were given, such as the difference of a person who handshakes versus a person who doesn’t. Thus, the behavior of person can be influenced by how he or she acts such as demonstrating the acts of a powerful person. Body language ...

“Psycho” is one of the most horrifying movies by Alfred Hitchcock. Although there were no grandiose shots, Hitchcock was able to invoke horror and thrill among the audience because of how he presented the crime scene and how he provided close ups of the victims. The black and white screen adds more horrifying effect and delivers an eerie atmosphere. Hitchcock introduces the viewers to the film’s characters and invites them to enter their world through consistent close up shots. By doing so, the audience establishes a much closer contact with the character and they seem to observe his/her experience ...

- The film genre expectations are subverted in the manner to which an expected judicial process for the Huntsville convicts at long run does not take place. In a high profile, the genre blends action, adventure, crime and faction types of genres. Action is through the Adventure, with a risky turn. Adventure is through an epic distant journey in escape of crime on the offense being committed by the convicts escaping.

Disney’s “The Lion King” exemplifies the many struggles and triumphs of leadership in several ways. It can be surprising to the untrained eye than an animated children’s movie could hold the valuable lessons by such a complex concept but it is true. Even Kouzes Posner’s framework for Leadership is exemplified throughout the movie. There are multiple characters that take on leadership roles at different times throughout the movie, but the primary leaders are Mufasa, the initial King we meet, his son, Simba, and Mufasa’s evil brother, Scar. Each exemplifies leadership in their own ways, showing both ...

Documentary Review of Person of Interest (2004)
The Persons of Interest is an educative politically oriented documentary that explores the plight of the Arabs and Muslim Americans in a biased mainstream society. The perception towards the individuals of these cultures changed considerably especially after the 9/11 tragic experience. The movie highlights the stereotypic attitude assumed by the mainstream American community that subjects the Arabs and Muslim Americans to serious discriminations. The producer of the film attempts to challenge some of these stereotypic assumptions by showing how they are often misinformed. The US government assumed a generalized position towards individuals of ...

The Coen Brothers have, one may say created an absolute masterpiece of a movie, which some may say is an amalgamation of the Wild West movies of old and a horror story. “The wide open plains, cowboys, Texas, guns and horses but has the syntax of a film noir even sometimes a horror movie. There is a murderer, one could even call him an unstoppable force, he kills without mercy and with a semi-novelty killing device.

Movie Review: 200 countries, 200 years-The Joy of Stats

The movie 200 countries, 200 years shows how countries have gotten richer in the last two centuries and basically covers the economic history of the world. The Income per person (GDP) in nearly all the countries in the world has increased as the countries adjust the differences in the cost of living and the inflation levels. I find it interesting how he enthusiastically uses public data and brings out in a sport’s commentator style to prove that the wealth of more than 200 countries has increased over the last two centuries. It is also interesting that a story depicting the ...

Final Film Critique: American Psycho

The film, American Psycho (Harron, 2000) is based on the book of the same name, written by Bret Easton Ellis and is fundamentally preoccupied with the idea of wealth, sex and success as being significant drives behind human behaviour.

In terms of its success, the film was, financially, a big one and took a total of $230,884,728 at the box office.

The film tells the story of John Constantine, a man who is able to see demons and angels at work on Earth and takes on ...

Movies have become better sources of information today. Many learning institutions teach history with movies being the aid materials.

The documentary outlays the incidences that have brought debate in Canada concerning the hunting of seals. Critically, the practice has been refuted by high profile individuals, animal activists and International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW). Ideally, the controversial actions in that Troake family did seek a defense in trying to justify their actions. Arguably, the killing of seals is made differently. The misconception that they used guns is a total fallacy. Traoke stipulates that the act is time-honored and claims that it is taking an environmental responsibility. IFAW critical perception concerning the annual seal hunt is skeptical. Viewing the ...

It was the time of counterculture and various movements and protests that followed the example of the civil rights movement. The most important topics for the American people were the distrust for the government after the long-lasting Vietnam War that weakened not only the United States, whose economic situation was already devastating, but other countries, including Vietnam, Cambodia and their neighbors; the Watergate scandal that made Americans doubt that the county is in fact a democratic one, the state ...

The film Last Vegas, directed by Jon Turteltaub, was released in 2013. It stars cinematic heavyweights like Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman, and Kevin Kline. Some of these actors, like Kline and Douglas, have faded into general obscurity in recent years, but still have managed to maintain relative clout with their reputations, making this film seem like it was going to be one to remember. Unfortunately, most will probably remember it as one they wish they could forget. The storyline is boring, the jokes are stale, and the material is dull.
