Film review


I'm going to talk about my favourite film, Titanic.Titanic is a 1997 American epic romantic disaster film directed and written  by James Cameron.
In the movie, this story is presented to the audience as a flashback. The narrator is Rose, 101 years old, with the last name Dawson. She tells the story to a treasure hunter (Bill Paxton), who is looking for the famous Heart of the Ocean, a diamond that was given to Rose by her fiance, Hockley.The recreation of the ship, both the exterior and the interior are perfect. The dialogue is brilliant. The movie is slow at times, except when the ship begins to sink. The fact that Cameron takes his time in telling the story makes it all the more tense. 
I think that titanic is an excellent film. One of the best movies ever. The plot is interesting, very entertaining, the person who sees it, i'm sure that he /she enjoys it. Many people who have seen it don't get tired of seeing it again. I recommended it, this is a good film to see with in company.

A Film Review: Pulp Fiction



I’m going to talk about my favorite movie: Pulp Fiction. It’s a crime-drama thriller directed by Quentin Tarantino. It stars Uma Thurman as Mia Wallace, John Travolta as Vincent Vega, Samuel L. Jackson as Jules Winnfield and Bruce Willis as Butch Coolidge. It tells three stories: the first is about a couple who decides to rob a diner. In the second we can meet Jules and Vincent, two hitmen who work for Marsellus Wallace, a powerful mobster. Marsellus asks Vincent to care his wife, Mia Wallace, while he’s away. But Vincent starts to be very interested in her. The third story is about Butch, a boxer who is ordered to loose on purpose a fixed fight: a fixed fight on purpose. But he decides to win and earn the bet’s money.

This is a movie you never get tired of watching due to the nonlinear order. Maybe it looks like these stories can’t be connected, but the way it does is one of its best features. It also makes you think: it’s full of meaningful details placed cleverly, related to next Tarantino’s movies or his influences (westerns, martial art movies, Hitchcock and, above all, pulp fictions). It’s also amazing how a little decision a character makes can change the course of the whole story. So it’s unpredictable. There is an incredibly incredible chemistry between Uma Thurman and John Travolta.

Pulp Fiction is really worth seeing. For me, it has all I want to see in a movie.

MOULIN ROUGE!

Moulin Rouge! is my favourite film. It is a musical and romantic film. It is directed by Baz Luhrmann and it stars Nicole Kidman and Ewan Mcgregor. It is set in the USA, Australia and the UK.
It tells the story of a bohemian boy called Christian who, in 1900, comes to the Moulin Rouge and there he fells fAlls in love with the most beautiful and famous girl of the cabaret, Satin.
From that moment to the end of the film the couple will live a very passionate, romantic, secret and tragic love story which will make you cry a lot.
The film has won tho two Oscars and it was nominated for a lot of other awards.
Nicole Kidman gives a fantastic performance.
If you love romantic films, I advise you that you shouldn't not to miss this incredible movie.
