A MIdsummer Night's Review

Advantages: Funnier than other Shakespeare plays.
Disadvantages: The language is hard to understand.

...'A Midsummer Night's Dream' by William Shakespeare, there are three different sets of characters and I am going to be discussing the theme of love and marriage and how each set is affected by this. The first set of characters within the play are the lords and ladies which consists of four main characters who are all affected by love in different ways. To begin with, Demetrius is being forced to wed Hermia by her father, Egeus. Hermia does not like ...
...in their eyes. Helena, the one who loves Demetrius, is always pestering him to take her back but he doesn't love her so therefore, he intends to marry Hermia. When Hermia and Lysander decide to run away however, all sorts of adventures take place and create a very enjoyable play within the human's story. However, there are another three characters involved in the human's story and that is Egeus, Theseus and Hippolyta. Egeus is the overprotective ...

Review of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream (DVD)

Only you can change your destiny...

Advantages: Brilliant story, acting, emotional
Disadvantages: Ending is a bit of a letdown.

...achieve their full potential. Dangerous Minds is a film that I’ve seen numerous times over the years and each time I see it I always find it thoroughly enjoyable. There have been many films similar to Dangerous Minds like Freedom Writers however I’ve always felt that Dangerous Minds is the film that all the other similar films aspire to be. As soon as the opening credits appear and you see the name Jerry Bruckheimer appear as the joint producer ...
...is what I like about Dangerous Minds, it manages to stay true to the characters, albeit fictional characters but I like the way they stay true to their fundamental characters but they manage to mould their original character into a better and more accepting individual. Even though this film was released in 1995, the issues that are portrayed in the story are still relevant today and that’s another thing that makes Dangerous Minds such an enjoyable ...

Iam Sam... An amazing Tear-Jeaker

Advantages: Brilliant acting, An emotional roller-coaster
Disadvantages: May run out of tissues

I am Sam is an absolutely amazing film!!! A real tearjeaker and an ideal dvd for those nights in with the girlies. I watched this film, starring Sean Penn and Michelle pfeiffer, the other week with a friend, and although very depressing and very sad in places, it is also full of amusing moments and happy times!!! Penn plays a mentally hanicapped father fighting for the right of custody of his seven year old daughter, played by Dakota Fanning, who ...

Review of I Am Sam (DVD)

...and you thought you were having a bad day!

Advantages: fun romantic comedy, George Clooney
Disadvantages: none

...watch' pile but settled on One Fine Day starring two of my favourites - George Clooney and Michelle Pfeiffer. It was a very enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours. The film was made quite a while ago in 1996 and is about two single parents whose lives cross one day. Michelle Pfeiffer plays Melanie Parker whose son Sammy goes to school with Maggie. Maggie's mum has just got married so she is having to spend the week with her dad Jack Taylor (George ...
...If you add to this one child who has a penchant for sticking objects up his nose and another who has a tendency to wonder off, it's no surprise that a chaotic day ensues! Also, with the grownups openly hostile but secretly quite liking each other, you have all the ingredients for a good romantic comedy. The only questions are - will they get through the day, still have jobs in the morning and maybe even start getting on a little better? You'll have ...

Poisonous Love

Advantages: very good movie, lots of things to learn, great acting from the cast
Disadvantages: none

White Oleander is one of my all time favorite movie and book. I have read the book and watched the movie accidentally when I was already in high school. I very much recommend to read the book and/or watch the movie. The story had moved me so much that there were scenes I cried. Most movies based on books are usually disappointing when you watch them because it turns out different or distorted from that of the book. But with White Oleander, the story ...

Astrid had to undergo life the hard way and though she loved her mother, she realized that her mother's love is not doing her anything good. Ingrid's envious love for her daughter has affected Astrid's life in each foster home she had. What I Love about this Movie: I love the actresses who played in the movie especially Renee ...
