    Everyone has been to cinemas for at least several times, and I found all the movies which attract me most are those which can make me think and imagine afterwards. Seeing the sloth moving in a slow-motion in the movie Zootopia, I thought about the idea that all the government officers lack efficiency. After watching Point Break, I imagine all the criminals breaking laws to help people. Bell Hooks’ concept is that movies give the reimagined version of the real and they have presence of social…
