Sequiturge The Movie Analysis

Improved Essays
1. Write a short paragraph on the following question: Do you believe that this film has lessons within the storyline that could positively influence society or mankind? Response: The government should never let people murder each other because things can get out of hand real quick. School shootings, robbery, just plain homicides already in an incline, will the purge help the causes of this? Besides the rate of poverty and violence across the country being dropped to 1 percent, normally it would be a great influence but the main purpose, but in this manner it’s a twisted way. Embracing homicides and street violence. Mankind should not go down that direction, it’s very disgusting and not to mention rich people having the upper hand since rich people also partake in the annual purge, buy buying homeless people from the street and auction off so families can murder them in their home, safe and sound. The message is pretty clear, it’s a concept should only stay in movies, never apply in to reality.
2. Write a brief paragraph about what you thought of the film. Did you like or dislike the film, and why? Response: I really enjoyed this film, the concept of the “Purge” is brilliant. Throughout the whole movie it was very suspenseful and I was on the edge of my seat half of the time. Even

As cliché goes the one that mostly stood out for me was the cliché “Masculine”, “Badass”, and “Tough” persona the main character tries to portray, which he does. The whole plot of “revenge” theme to murder the man that killed whoever it may be, is done many times in action films. Another statement, when the couple started of arguing and as the filmed progressed their opinion changed and they appreciate each other’s company again, a love cliché I must say. It’s done very well, the main character was suspicious and serious for the most part. Having knowledge and well prepare of course in an action film is a

    Where as I normally end up arguing against why a film should be considered a horror film, this time I'm going other way and argue why Lightning Bug is a Horror film. As I stated in Horror, My Definition, a Horror film is a film that used dread and horror, while trying to evoke negative emotions. Lightning Bug does that for me, upon first viewing I wasn't that impressed and disregarded is horror elements. Instead focusing on how its a Coming of Age Drama. But after viewing the film never really settled and has passed through my mind on several occasions and when I reflect on the film it's dark and haunting undertones that remain.…

    There are many standout moments that I would like to mention, but first I would like to say that I am very impressed with this film, I always have been wondering all these things and I like the fact that we are learning about them in this class. The first standout moment for me was when the man and his family lost their farm. It called my attention because my family and some families from this area had to go through this same situation a few years ago. Second standout moment: the pilots’ salaries from 16,000 to 22,000 yearly! That’s ridiculous, some of them had to ask for food stamps, some of them have a second job, that remind me a time when a met a paramedic working at a warehouse, I asked him why he was working there, and he told me that he was getting pay more there for opening boxes than saving lives and even though he loved to be a paramedic he needed the money.…

    In this case, movies are bringing up the topic of bringing down unfairness in society, which is an incredible idea to raise awareness. Back in the 20th century, people marched across the USA to make a statement, with a petition, that they wanted to be accepted and have everyone be accepted in society.
