Overall I found the movie to be quite interesting and exciting at times but a bit slow in others. The story itself was very clear to me and didn’t cause any confusion. It had a good flow also, just as you were on the verge of falling into boredom with a scene they switched it up on you to keep you

In accordance with the research, Mr. Fredricksen seems to be struggling with his mental health and shows evidence of a sedentary lifestyle.Luckily, Mr. Fredricksen meets a young boy named Russell who turns his life around.

The story-line was very good, but it was not the same as the book. The director made a good choice with having the intro be with the girl in the red dress because if they did that in the middle of the movie as a flashback, then that would have made it confusing for the audience. This choice was good and even better than the book because it made the story-line easier to understand.

After reviewing all the notes and game theory, I decided to do my dissection on a football movie that was based on true story known as Cater High. In my opinion, just because you’re are a part of team does not mean that you can get away with everything.

Overall, I enjoyed the film. My biggest issue was the formatting of the film and the medium that it was available.

The continuous breaks in the action of

As a kid, Greg looked up to Terry and tried to follow his footsteps. Terry and Greg were neighbors and that is one reason Terry was a role model to Greg. Greg admired Terry because he played basketball and was a “ladies man”. During, Terry and Greg childhood drugs were
