    "Wanted" is basically from a comic book that has limited series written by Mark Miller and J.G Jones, it is about an amoral protagonist (Wesley Gibson) who is discovered as the heir of super assassin. Russian director, Timur Bekmambetov, he is the cream of the crop, he turns this comic into a movie that make the viewers not sit still and make their adrenaline and cortisone levels spike with the actions. Bekmambetov used the similar style of shots and angles with his previous movie, Night watch. It's more to wide angle (long shot), so we can see the terrifying background like one of the scenes in the torture room, where Wes has been beaten up by the butcher. Not even that, there are many special effects that Bekmambetov applies in this movie, like slow-motion with sound effects that certainly provides that "ouch" reaction from audiences.…

    The film updates the story with twentieth-century protagonists challenging neo-colonialism. By casting an American Black actor as Idi Amin, the last King raises unsettling issues about Black identity, Afro-Diasporic sentiment, and racial ventriloquism that harks back to Hollywood’s days of Blackface minstrelsy. Racism in Western popular culture has not been uncontested, and in recent years well organized and successful protests have risen up in various forms against corporations, athletic organizations, and other purveyors of racialized popular media, however, for as many successful protests, decades long battles continue today to end the dehumanizing portrayals of marginalized groups in the United States. People begin by focusing on some recent…

    Journal Entry The movie “A Time to Kill” is similar to the classic novel “To Kill a Mockingbird” as a white lawyer is defending an innocent African American man, but the predominantly white jury is the only obstacle that both men have of getting freedom and receiving true justice. The ending is where the two break apart as Carl Lee Hailey is pronounced innocent and gets to live, while Tom Tom Robinson ( still at court but believes that Atticus will fail) dies while trying to escape prison. Both the novel and film depicts how the justice system in the south is not fair as the jury cannot see beyond the skin colour of the accused. I believe that the actions that Carl Lee Hailey did was justified as the two rapists Billy Ray Cobb and Pete…

    A hero is classified as a person or character that in the face of danger, or in a position of weakness, displays courage, selflessness, bravery, and self sacrifice, for a reason of goodness that comes from the heart and not for fame. Wolverine displays all these trait that a hero needs, but not just at a time of weakness, he displays them at all times. For that very reason, Wolverine truly deserves the title of a “hero.” Above all Wolverine's appearance, powers and abilities and the lessons he teaches the world help exemplify what a superior hero really is. Wolverine is a true hero as a result of his appearance.…

    The emergence of the female heroine in young adult dystopian fiction is working to change stereotypical representations of women through texts. Women are often under represented, hyper-sexualised or lack complexity in modern works, with just 23% of films distributed globally from 2010-12 featuring female protagonists according to a report released by the Geena Davis Institute. While it is true that female protagonists have been seen over time, they are all too often represented in manners that focus on appearance, their domestic roles and subservience, or emphasized femininity (Connell & Messerschmidt, 2005). Cult classics like The Hunger Games and Divergent are working to empower young women through the characters of Katniss and Tris who are…

    Some people might say that the main character from the X-men Wolverine is a superhero, well I disagree with this statement for various reasons. Wolverine is considered is a superhero because he saves people from the villains, some people do not realize that Wolverine also kills people. Even though he saves people, he does it by killing the villains and that can make some people think that he is rather a killer. Chuck Klosterman is an American author who focuses on American popular culture. In his book, I Wear the Black Hat: Grappling with Villains, Klosterman states ‘’the villain is the person who knows the most but cares the least’’ (Klosterman 14).…

    Logan Propaganda

    The third and final addition to Marvel’s Wolverine franchise is James Mangold’s 2017 film Logan, which features Hugh Jackman as one of the only mutants left. He is an angry old man with an alcohol dependency, who is gradually losing his ability to heal and regenerate. The plot was developed from the story of Old Man Logan, set in a post-apocalyptic future, which was based on Marvel Comics’ Wolverine. Aside from the explicit story of Logan being torn between his desire to hide away from the world and saving a young girl who reminds him of himself, there are many implicit meanings that are incredibly relevant to the current political climate. This is not the first instance of political propaganda in the X-Men franchise; the comic book series…

    The Four Movies Analysis

    • 8 Pages

    It is pretty obvious that the four films of Theme two are all somehow similar, and the first thing they have in common is the theme, which, to my understanding, is resource rob and environmental justice. All four movies are trying to deliver the message that human-beings are greedy, they try to gather as much resource as they can for their future development, which destroys many beautiful natural lands and directly kills a lot of natives along with their sacred culture. Also, it is pretty obvious that these four movies are all mainly talked about the conflict between modern human-beings and native “uncivilized savage”. Modern people tried to invade natives’ lands and grab their resources like gold or mineral, and their first step is cutting…

    The film Hearts and Minds is a documentary made by Peter Davis in 1974 to portray America’s unethical involvement in Vietnam and examine the opinions of many by showing interviews and vivid footages. The film focuses more on those who were against the war than those who supported it. For the U.S. all that mattered was the victory. However, those who were opposed to the war felt that there was no right or reasonable justification for their actions. The real issue illustrated by the film was whether the U.S. wanted to protect the country from communism or to manifest its greatest power in the world by winning another war.…
