Fatal Attraction: Movie Analysis

Decent Essays
I watched Fatal Attraction with a friend and I said to him "that's what you get when you just want some fun for the weekend". Although going with Alex was a decision Dan made it was very unfortunate that the woman he had an affair with was extremly crazy. I doubt that Alex got pregnen, if she was obssesed with Dan she could have made everything up. I don't belive Dan seen as a hero at the end of the movie because it has his wife the one that had the last shot, literally in the theatrical ending and figuratevly in the orginal ending. The original ending is the end as I imagined first while watching the movie because of the opera and the comments Dan and Alex made in one of their firsts encounters. Certainly Dan is guilty of having an affair,

    Ex-Machina Movie Analysis

    For this week’s final adaptation we take a look at the film Ex-Machina and it is not one to disappoint. In the completion of the film I was left with an abundance of food for thought on modern day problems concerning humanity, gender, religion, and knowledge. Starting with my overall view of the film I was left with feelings of unease from beginning to end. The general concept of creating a machine whose able to pass as a human is somewhat difficult to grasp when the machine is given human characteristics such as Ava. The reason being for me stems from my belief that humanity is immeasurable and in a society where social constructs dominate in order to classify or categories us all that's a hard pill to swallow.…

    The basic message of this movie is that sometimes, when being too nice and kind, it can make someone a pushover, and when they are different as well, people will be mean to them. It may not be good to be where one can’t say no to anything, however, in the end, it is better to be a kind person because there will always be someone that will be able see more than what is on the outside. Two point of views that could be seen within this movie is that of the protagonist Melanie, and that of Innocent as an illegal immigrant. In Melanie’s point of view, being nice is natural for her, but she takes it as a sense of extreme, either you are nice and do everything for everyone or you are “naughty” and are mean and nasty to everyone and every creature.…
