Movie Review #4 ( The wizard of Oz)
The Wizard of Oz is a definite classic. A wonderful story with impressive visuals for the time period. The Wizard of Oz is a memorable film experience, one that everybody should at least see once in their lives. Dorothy lives on a farm in Kansas until a tornado arrives. It picks her, her house, and her dog up and deposits them in the land of Oz. Things in Oz are strange and beautiful, but Dorothy just wants to get back home. She's helped by the Good Witch of the North, but she's also in trouble with the Wicked Witch of the West, who seeks revenge for the death of her sister; the Wicked Witch of the East, for which she blames Dorothy. Great film, Classic.
Movie Review #3 (Forrest Gump)
Forrest Gump is a masterpiece. Forrest Gump, who is played by Tom Hanks, has lived his life being completely oblivious to the amazing and historical things that happen to him. He has met Elvis, met the president, become a pro football star, gone to the Vietnam war, and much more, but all his life all he could think about was the love of his life Jenny. Jenny is sweet girl but has lived her life trying to cover it up with sex and drugs. However, she has always been best friends with Forrest and never stopped believing hes a great person. Forrest Gump may not be a smart man, but you don't have to be smart to be a great man. One of the greatest movies ever.
Movie Review #2 (Jaws)
Based on Peter Benchley's book, Steven Spielberg started a saga with this new compelling story that left audiences on the edge of their seats. The movie begins on an summer night when "Chrissie" decides to go skinny dipping while her friends party on the beach. When she disappears under water she never returns leaving only pieces of her body left washed up on shore. The police force refuse to believe the worst and they dont shut down the beach until a few more victims fall to the great white shark. The mayor orders a fisherman to kill the beast. They find a shark, kill it and reopen the beach thinking that the attacks are over. It turns out that the shark they killed is not the cause of the death and the fisherman teams up with two other men and go take on the killer shark known as jaws.
Movie Review #1 (North By Northwest)
When most people hear the name Hitchcock, they think of 4 classic movies. Rear Window, Vertico, Psyco and North by Northwest. North by Northwest was the last of these 4 to be made and is a commonly known film from household to household. In the movie New York advertising executive Roger Thornhill is taken by spies who believe he is a CIA agent by the name of George Kaplan. He escapes the spies but must find Kaplan in order to clear himself of being a suspect for a murder. The movie is full of adventure and double cross as Thornhill finds himself being chased by a crop-dusting plane in a cornfield running for his life. The film is a great and a personal favorite. I recommend it to anybody over the age of 13.
