Recommended: Importance of acting

There are many good movies in the world with good actors and good director, but my favorite movie that I believe obtains all the qualities of a good movie is 10 Things I Hate About You. Quality actors make a marvelous movie and that is exactly what this movie has. A movie where there is no boring pauses or the plot doesn’t slow down makes the movie even better. The fact that it has relating moments is even better. One of the best things that a movie should have is a moral. Movies should always include some type of music! All of these qualities are included in 10 Things I Hate About You. Good qualities are not the only things a movie must have. The movie has to have meaning. This movie shows many meanings throughout the film. I think movies

  • Hero Film Analysis

    1998 Words  | 4 Pages

    What components make a movie successful in cinema? Filmmakers have crafted a formula to successfully deliver the hero narrative. This formula consists of the hero’s journey and archetypes. Hero films typically follow a ten-step sequence to properly set up and execute the hero’s journey. These movies range from stories of transformations, searches, or a journey back home. Archetypes are used to employ character profile as well as add variety and depth to these stories. Ridley Scott directed Alien, in which Ellen Ripley embarks on a journey where she must survive an alien who is out on a murderous rampage and return back to Earth. Alien adds originality to its storyline by choosing a female lead instead of a male, but the film still incorporates the same heroic attributes that make a story successful. In this “going home journey” film, Scott is able to incorporate the hero’s journey and the official hero archetype towards the heroine Ellen Ripley.

    John Lennon is a wise man, but is this quote accurate when used in context with the taming of the shrew? The 1999 film Ten things I Hate about you and the 1967 film Taming of The Shrew are both based on shakespeare's 1592 play of the latter name, The Taming of the shrew. Both films follow the plot of shakespeare’s earlier play, but to what extent is arguable. Ten things I hate about you is a modernised version of the play, so many of the original aspects have been changed to appeal to a modern audience. Some of the main features of the original storyline have been cut or changed, and this is because they are too dark to include include for a modern audience. Scenes where Petruchio starves Kate and refuses to let her sleep are all examples of the darker theme of this play. This may have been an acceptable theme during the era that Taming of the shrew was first developed, as views on a women's

  • Similarities Between Taming Of The Shrew And 10 Things I Hate About You

    1315 Words  | 3 Pages

    10 Things I Hate About You takes William Shakespeare’s classic play, The Taming of the Shrew and manages to make it relevant to a modern audience. The story remains the same with the younger sister, Bianca, not allowed to have a relationship until her older sister, Kat, does. They did maintain several original scenes and even used several direct quotes from the original play. The writers have eliminated some of Bianca’s suitors and changed the way Kat is tamed to appeal to a modern audience. Shakespeare would have agreed with the casting of the movie. This movie may turn Shakespeare’s work into a teen comedy but it maintains many of the elements that made the play such a hit.

    ...r, this movie is lack of depth of storyline. The audiences can even predict what will happen in the next scenes. Moreover, the ending of this movie is too cheesy and irrational according to me. If only they change the ending to become more interesting and rational, I will give a four or five stars out of five. In spite of a lame twist ending, this movie is a perfect example to show that managers should be able to motivate and challenge their employee. It is important to remember that a happy employee means a productive employee.

    Chris was my best friend as a kid. He often told me hilarious stories of his outrageous family, rundown neighborhood, and sympathetic, but extremely racist school. I always had my ears open to listen to him verbalize his complex life for many hours in a day, but our time unfortunately concluded and I wouldn’t see him as frequently anymore. During my adolescence, I made a new friend named April. She made me laugh so hard that I would burst into tears. Somehow, she discovered my dark sense of humor and her oddly monotoned voice made her lifestyle and persona intriguing, but after a couple of weeks her story finished and I was recommended to consume nine seasons filled with escapades of coworkers in an office. April Ludgate from Parks and Recreation and Chris from Everybody Hates Chris are more than just characters, they were my child hood friends. I would observe their frequent reruns and binge their shows multiple times. Not because I had nothing to do, but I found people who are just like me. I finally found my muse when I was a person with a voice, aching to be heard, but couldn’t find the

    Movies suck these days. All Hollywood seems to care about anymore is making profitable movies, not thinking twice about what the movie might actually be about. Whether it’s another special effects-ridden clunker, a giddy romantic comedy, or another lame-plotted action flick, they just don’t seem to get it. Although a small handful of films over a year’s time are occasionally worth seeing, for the most part it’s all about making money and not about the true art that filmmaking can be.

  • My Criteria for Film Evaluation

    929 Words  | 2 Pages

    There are three major standards through which I decide whether or not I will watch a film: reputation, and genre. Reputation is inclusive of friends and ratings of the film. Usually my friends and I have similar tastes and we are aroused or repulsed by the same films. Reputation is a strong and stable standard for deciding which film to go to, because with such a large population of movie watchers, major biases don't affect the reputation and ratings are fair and accurate. Also, people are inclined to give high ratings to movies that touch them or really make them think regardless of the actual film taking quality. This implies that the highest ratings are something not to miss out on, because I personally believe that movies are an expression of the human self, just like books, or music. Missing out on an amazing movie, is like missing out on upgrade to your mind and the way you think. Ratings are very important.

There is a great use of camera, timing, shots and story line that are portrayed in this movie without being too overwhelming. This allows the audience to relax during the movie and just take in the scenes as a story from reality. To this day, and even still doing this paper I still come to find different aspects of the movie that I missed the previous times I have watched it.
