1.Emotional Response: This movie seems to have just the right amount of humor to appeal and regale anybody. Just enough to draw a dramatic depth. Withal, giving off an emotional vibe and connecting deeply with myself as the audience. Starting with the desideratum to communicate, care and bulwark ourselves and the ones we dote. Although, I have never judged a fore after optically canvassing the film I feel I became more tolerant and accepting towards anyone who is different and doesn’t visually perceive things the way I might optically discern them. After watching the film I felt uplifted and felt I had visually seen an antidote for depression. Also, made me feel that their is still hope in his world.
2.Portrayal: Raymond to me is the superhuman type. Albeit, others visually perceived him as weird, inelegant, and perturbing; Raymond was quite astute. In the film Rain Man Raymond had very apprehensive features. The type to make anyone turn their head. With that said, Raymond was withal apostatized as in his early forties.At a point in time there was some pity shown, like the tantrum at the airport. Raymond withal gave a vibe off that he didn’t want to be invaded in his personal space, making others feel uncomfortable. There was a time in the movie where I cerebrated Raymond would never understand. Raymond had an arduous time with virtually everything we visually perceive as mundane. Though he was very perspicacious, Raymond never understood money not once in the film.
My initial reaction to the film was of utter shock at the brutally raw reality of the film. Upon reflection and commentary from other sources, the film’s simple yet vastly effective filmmaking techniques of developing the explicit and implicit meaning of the film. The explicit meaning, as
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

Review: This movie is one of the best comic movies I had ever watched because even though its comedy but it also holds a lot of meanings of life between the lines of the script of that movie first of all the main plot of the movie which is deciding to stay at the mental institution instead of the prison thinking that it is easier, then we discover that the mental institution is way more
My initial reaction to the film itself was quite positive. Before watching the movie, it wasn’t positive. The story line, when I had read about the topic, seemed repetitive. I didn’t want to hear and see the same things over and over again. I had thought that that was what this movie was going to be. But going and watching the whole thing, and getting to see a different part of the story, was very interesting and I ended up liking it much more than I had thought at first.
The film is very touching, whether in an inspiring way or a sad way, you where touched by it. The acting in the film was unbelievable. Emilie
Although this film is disadvantaging to many people, it is also very beneficial. I think people that come from the lower class or an abusive household can really benefit from this film. The main point of this film is to show people that you can achieve anything you want to do no matter what background you come from, and although it might be hard because of economical/ personal issues you are not less of a person than anyone and you can still be successful. I love the idea of success because it doesn’t really have a set definition. You don’t necessarily need money to be/feel successful. You can work at Subway and still be successful while a twelve time Oscar winning actor can be successful. You sort of carve out your own success and make your own definition for it. This movie will also teach people that they are not on their own. Although you might think nobody is there for you, when you enter a room you don’t know what everyone is thinking or how everyone feels; you might now even know everyone. It is kind of like when you’re putting together a puzzle, you put certain pieces together and you get closer to finishing and you just need to keep trying to solve the puzzle because if you give up you just wasted your money on a puzzle
Released in 2010 to critical acclaim, Even the Rain offers insight into the events occurring before and during the Cochabamba Water War from the perspective of an outsider. Having chosen to film in Bolivia due to the high availability of cheap labor, Costa and Sebastian are not above the exploitation of natives. Especially early on, Costa represents the archetypical western businessman, an individual consumed by profits and the bottom line. In contrast, early in the film Sebastian represents the opposite, he is concerned for the people and he believes that the films message might speak to those oppressing them. This is highlighted by Sebastian’s casting of the native Bolivian Daniel as the Hatuey and offering him a relatively decent wage, as Sebastian believes he is perfect for the role. Throughout the film, there are inklings of unrest within the area they are filming in, such as the Bolivians driving away utilities workers. The unrest comes to the foreground when open protesting begins and Daniel becomes one of the leaders of the protests. These protests result in an important conversation between the mayor of Cochabamba and the film crew, in which the mayor questions whether the film crew are hypocrites and oppressors of the native Bolivians. Despite his crass language, the mayor does indeed have some valid points; members of the film crew often act as neo-colonialist oppressors, Bolivia did need foreign investment, and the result of the protests was not achieved.
Starting off with the easy one, Reader-Response, or Viewer-Response in this case, is apparent throughout the video (DavidVonPeinChannel2) (Mays 1320). Siskel and Ebert describe how the tension and setting shape the atmosphere of the film, and in textbook Reader-Response fashion, they complement John Carpenter’s film for its use of camera angle and music, and the affect that plays on the viewer (DavidVonPeinChannel2)(. An unexpected, but still true addition, was that of Feminist perspective. Siskel and Ebert point out how Jaime Lee Curtis’ character appears strong and
The problems that are entangled in the film's root aren't so prevalent and can easily be ignored, but the film feels a tad overlong in what it is trying to accomplish. Granted, somewhat interesting story underpinned by stellar performances while witty, incisive banter abounds in among frames, but the arduousness has its say later-on. I feel what's so good about this film lies in the fact that it's simply not trying to cross the line and re-invent the wheel, but merely give the viewer a comfortable and darkly comical short-of-two-hours-time-frame; and unsurprisingly succeeds because it has those bits on a string. It's not rousing by any means, and neither is it contemplative or despondent because of its affairs - it could have well been that - but instead prances in uncanny valley territory due to its bravura in making the most of comicality, however glum or repulsive it might
“Singin’ in the Rain” was a film released in 1952, and is a combination of a musical and a romantic comedy. The film takes on a portrayal of 1920’s Hollywood culture that is very easygoing and cheerful. And as is the situation with most films that are regarded as classics, it originally received very lukewarm reactions upon its initial release, but as time went on people began to notice and appreciate its candor. Nowadays it’s regarded as the greatest musical film ever made, and one of the best films ever made period. In this critique I’m going to give my thoughts on the several different aspects and themes of “Singin’ in the Rain,” to understand why it is as highly touted as it is.
In my opinion, the most valuable aspect of this film is that it tells us a story in between fiction and reality. It uses documentary, a popular formula, to tell an imaginary event.
