10 Things I Hate About You

Improved Essays
I really enjoyed this film the characters were fun and so was the dialogue. The film almost remind me of 10 Things I Hate About You which was said to be based of a Shakespeare play The Taming of the Shrew, in which the leading lady was originally against marriage yet somehow was tricked into one. Jan is the shrew which is defined as an ill-tempered woman characterised by scolding and nagging and Brad is the man that tames her as his alter ego Rex. Rex represents everything Brad is not and that is the only reason why Jan fell in love with him. In my honest opinion, Brad is a creepy and I would not want go to his house of horrors for anything. No man should have any switches that had the capabilities to trap a woman like that. This tells me that

    The film did a good job of portraying Tamora's fear and Aaron's anger. Aaron's cunning behavior seems to be the result of knowing he is under estimated because he is black. The historical content also helped me understand Taymor's sexual dominance and Lavinia's chastity. The film clearly divides Gothic sexual exploration and Roman chastity. The wild orgies demonstrated in the film helped me see Tamora and her kin didn't cherish sex, but abused it.…

    Karenya Garrett: Consent by Jason Reitman This short film starts off as this awkward,corny,romantic situation in beginning. But as it started to pick throughout, it got the core of the situation, comically, without being offensive. I thought that Reitman did a good job with how he approached the topic, conveying the issue with a comedic approach, but still not disregarding the issue whatsoever. I enjoyed on how the lawyers took over once the consent form came into play.…

    This movie is based on Stephen King's novella '' The Body,' and Richard Dreyfuss did a great job narrating this film. This film was absolutely worthwhile and brought me back to some of my greatest memories growing up with my friends. This movie does a wonderful job of making you feel as though you are there with the boys on their journey both physically and emotionally with the acting and camera angles. This movie also does a wonderful job of capturing the nostalgic moments of the coming of age life changing experiences afterwards because of those experiences.…

Produced by the same people behind "Ghostbusters" and "Happy gilmore", this is the movie responsible for Jim Carrey becoming the first actor to collect a $20 million dollar bank cheque. But to his acclaim, Carrey returns to the heat by going the extra mile and sticking his neck out more than ever before. After the successful horseplay of "The mask" and "Batman forever", The cable guy tells a venturous departure. Alright, in the central role he acts as another overdone, frantic and insane character.…

    It recreated the hysteria and chaos that surrounded the small village really well. The film shows the viewer how big a role religion played during this time period.

    Although the novels have various stories, sometimes a novel could be compared with another novel. It is because they have the same case and could be analyzed by the same theory.

Little Women (1868 and 1869) talks about four sisters and among all the sisters, there is one that is an ambitious woman named Josephine March, which is also known as Jo.

    I didn’t really want to go as I wanted to spend time with my friends. But when I actually went to see the movie, it had a beautiful message. The story of click taught me how spending time with the family is a very important thing. Being an Adam Sandler film I went into the review expecting the same Adam Sander film which I do appreciate a considerable amount, in some cases it's incredible to escape and not get excessively basic about the film you are surveying. I ran in with this attitude to Click and I was astounded with how great this film truly is.…

    I personally enjoyed the film, although they suggested the events that were to occur later, I kept watching with enthusiasm because I wanted to see how they would play out. The diction that the brothers used throughout the film created a negative attitude towards them, although Winthorpe and Billy Ray were the ones to be involved in a legal mess, other characters gained sympathy. Ophelia and Coleman were the ones I was rooting for, they had a job of taking care of others needs from the beginning of the film, and were taken advantage of without receiving appreciation. The wealthy characters such as Penelope and her friends, through the diction and the events were not very liked. The story plaid on a serious issue, which was people’s overwhelming need to consume no matter who or how many people they took advantage of.…
