Research Paper On The Martian

Decent Essays
The movie The Martian is a very well planed out movie. The acting was really good, the scripts were not boring, and scenery and special effect were out of this world, literally. Right now you're thinking, "Oh, this must be a really good movie."But, don't make your decisions so quick, I still have to go deeper into the acting and the scenery.
The acting performance was very good. The actors fit their character pretty well. The only part that didn't seem right was when the crew got hit by this big storm. You would think that they would panic a lot more, but they were pretty calm. One scene that I like a lot was when the astrophysics came into the picture. He was like a mad genius. He reminded me a lot of Albert Einstein in how he would forget

    Refried Elvis is a swiftly paced parody that packs a Presley punch. With familiar tunes and modern jokes, it’s fun for the whole family. From beginning to end it’s as smart as it is funny, and guaranteed to entertain. I found the acting to be nearly impeccable, as all on stage seemed entirely committed to their characters, actions, and intent. No matter how serious or silly the scene, I found the believability to be there.…

    "Monster is a relative word; to a canary, a cat is a monster. So far we humans were used to being cats." After the first three movies in the series, you might think that they would have learnt of their incapacity to contain a dinosaur – precisely the reason why Jurassic Park was shut down at the end of the third movie. Twenty-two years later, the park has been reopened, renamed and revamped. The theme park, dubbed Jurassic World, is now owned by Simon Masrani (Irrfan Khan) who has taken Hammond's dream of a dinosaur amusement park to a whole new level.…

    The actor who played Ariel was lacking in actual emotion which was disappointing since Ariel only has one emotion, angry. The actor who played Tupolski did a very good job, especially with the voice he used to bring the character to life. Then there was the actor who played Michael, played him very well especially since Michael was a mentally challenged character. The actor that played Katurian did a great job he brought emotion to the play but he wasn’t spoken up enough which made his acting seem sort of weak. That is not to say that he didn’t do a good job because he did…

    The overall performance of the movie in my opinion was very well. The movie had explained itself very well and had very lots scenes of what I had imagined in my mind from the book. The movie of course does not have some of the special effects that we have now but for 1983 it is a very well done movie. The movie had also had very good music that goes with the scenes. The movie had very good transitions.…

    All the actors seemed very professional and owned the characters they were playing. There was just something about Abele that caught my eye. For instance, every time Brittany Caldwell (Molly in The Gnädiges Fräulein) asked Abele to rock with her in the rocking chair she did not hesitate and went overboard. She exaggerated the movement and moaning to an extent that made you laugh because she was not scared to make a fool of herself. In addition, she had her own excerpt in the begging of the scene that really set the tone.…

    Some of the characters forgot their lines but quickly recovered and were able to fix their mess up very smoothly. One thing that I noticed was that when Tasker forgot his lines he would start to mumble and then I couldn’t understand what he was saying. Although that is not what acting is all about I think that his part was believable. I think that his gestures and mannerisms fit his character very well. I also think that his voice patterns fit his character very well.…

    Most see a disability as an impairment of normal function; however, some see a disability as a source of creativity and innovation. Being blind means that one does not exist in the perceptual world of sight; on the contrary, that individual may have a greater presence in the perceptual world of touch, taste, smell, and hearing. Therefore, a conclusion may be drawn that a perceptual world is different for each individual but, that perceptual world contributes to the experience of the individual regardless of its constituents. In a few case studies of paradoxical neurological disorders Oliver Sacks illustrates the perceptual words of those who differ from the norm. Oliver Sacks was a British born neurologist that spent the majority of his professional life in the United States.…

    Every single one of them fit their role greatly. For the minor roles, I thought only one of the girlfriends of Robert fit well and that was the flight attendant. The other two just did not portray their role as deeply as they should have. Even as a minor role, they were still part of the plot, but there acting didn’t make it seem like they were that important. Everybody’s voice and tone was excellent.…
