Gung Ho Movie Analysis

This paper explores the Movie “It’s Complicated” a 2009 romantic comedy film, based of the novel written by Nancy Meyers. In this movie Jane and Jake Adler are a divorced couple of ten years. They start a secret love affair in New York, at their son’s graduation. While Jake is trying to have a family with his much younger wife, Agnes. I will be looking at if this is a possible mid-life crisis, genetics, or if it a developmental issue of Jake for wanting to be with his first wife, Jane.

The movie Grown-Ups (2010) is about a group of high school friends who reunite after their beloved high school basketball coach passes away during the summer. The main characters that make up this particular group of friends include Lenny Fedder (Adam Sandler), Eric Lamonsoff (Kevin James), Kurt Mckenzie (Chris Rock), Marcus Higgins (David Spade), and Rob Hillard (Rob Shneider). The childhood buddies come together at a funeral and decide to take their families on a getaway trip. They believe it would be a good idea to rent a rundown cabin on the lakeside and have their families enjoy the great outdoors while spending time with each other over the Fourth of July week. However, this particular group of adults now have kids and wives who are very

I think it accurately portrayed the hardships families went through during the Great Depression. At first, everything was fine and James J. Braddock was a successful boxer with a good amount of money. Then, the Great Depression hits and Braddock struggles to support his family. He continues to box, but it is difficult for him to support his family off what little he makes. He tries to find other jobs, but struggles because he broke his hand in a boxing match, making manual labor especially painful for him. I thought this part of the movie was extremely sad. Braddock was trying so hard to support his family, but he could barely manage. He continued to box even though he was not healthy, as he had a broken hand and was extremely malnourished. His wife was always stressed and the Depression was a huge strain of their marriage. Their kids were young and didn’t really understand what was going on, but they still suffered from starvation and illness. I really liked the end of the movie when Braddock receives a large sum of money after winning a huge boxing match. He was able to provide for his family once again. I think this really shows that hard work eventually pays

The manufacturing business acted as an extremely important industrial area. From this area, wool was exported, sugar was high quality and electricity powered the city. During World War 2, in 1939-1945, the Pyrmont area was used mostly for exporting war supplies. This had a major impact on the area as it changed the whole area completely. After WWII had officially finished, the Pyrmont-Ultimo area was a major entry point for many traveling workers. It was from then, the Pyrmont-Ultimo area lowered/got worse. In the beginning the Pyrmont-Ultimo area, was a success in many things. But then WWII changed it all. , After 1945 manufacturing products in the area was no longer important. Different manufacturing groups moved to suburban

Throughout the film Do the Right Thing, we continuously observe racial conflict that builds up to such an extreme point that it leads to a fight for power. This movie portrays the struggles and realities of a neighborhood with white and black African American people. This can be seen in many instances for example when Buggin ' Out, Radio Raheem, and Smiley march into Sal 's and demand that Sal change the Wall of Fame. Another vital instance shows the height of power struggle. It is when the huge fight starts in the street and results in Raheem being killed by a white police officer.

There were some reactions that I experienced when I watched this movie a couple times. The first time that I watched the movie, I thought it was sad and predictable. The very first scene shows the two men just missing each other at the Texas Market, than the rest of the movie was about their life being sad. I pretty quickly saw that the two would eventually run into each other and find the love they were missing in their life. It was sad to see that they were so unhappy in their lives. Since I was a kid, I grew up with a family that believed in equal

     If I were a film critic I would give this film four and a half stars. It was well made and the actors were excellent. Although I have little to no experience living in a situation such as the one in the movie, I feel as though the lifestyle of these particular characters were portrayed truthfully. It was a culture shock to me, and the fact that it was most likely taken from real life is amazing in my mind. This movie not only made me think about the world as a whole but made me realize how incredibly lucky I am to have grown up in the environment in which I have lived in my entire life.

Smoke signals is an intriguing movie about two main characters who are facing issues within their dyad and the external world. Victor Joseph is a young man who had a rough time accepting his father’s past behavior and actions. He is portrayed as a someone who is stoic, slow to show emotions, and pessimistic. His mother put his father out, Arnold, out after he would not stop his continuous pattern of drinking. Thomas ,on the other hand, is completely different.

O Brother Where Art Thou "O Brother Where Art Thou" is a comedy that was directed and written by Ethan and Joel Coen. The Coen brothers, who are sociologists, wanted to conduct a film that portrayed the south. The scene I have chosen that contributes to the overall theme of the movie is the Klan rally. It begins with the of the rally members and in a three shot, Everett, Delmar, and Pete rise up from behind the bushes in blackface to find that they've stumbled across a Klan rally. Forming geometric shapes, the Klan members were marching and singing in unison.

In the book, “The face of Decline: The Pennsylvania Anthracite Region in the Twentieth Century”, (2005), discusses different elements towards the economic crisis of the capital and labor, local businesses, redevelopment of agencies, and state and federal governments. Dublin and Licht pounder upon the remarkable range of sources including oral histories, documentary photographs, records of coal companies, and community newspapers. The authors observe the effect of the economic decline across a wide region but mainly focuses on a small group of mining communities in specific regions. Also, the authors place the anthracite region within a broader framework,

There were barely any opportunities in Red Rock for the residents when the mill stopped operating unless they moved cities. On the other hand, opportunities for people looking for a low cost of living and affordable housing surged. This led to a steady school enrolment and exploration of eco-tourism for a source of revenue.

Traditionally, the economy of the region was heavily dependent on agriculture, logging, and coal mining. Agriculture and logging are both seen in the novel because they were some of the few ways that people living in rural areas could make any amount of money. However, since the late 20th century, tourism and the development of second-homes have become increasingly important to the

This movie did an excellent job portraying the time era in which the Civil War was taken place and depicts the emotions and pressures of war. The movie helped me to visual that time period in a better sense and to see the perspective of African American soldiers fighting in the Civil War. The movie showed a lot more in depth and personal feelings of the black soldiers during that time period. The movie portrayed what the black soldiers had to deal with as soldiers of the Union and it helped me to visual what I learned about the black regiments during the civil war. The film even showed the soldiers having to do manual labor and lute the southern towns and cities. It also showed how even though the black soldiers were on the same side as the white soldiers of the Union, the black soldiers were still treated as unequal and faced prejudice daily by the other white soldiers. It also showed the strong belief of many of the white Union soldiers that they fought for emancipation and the freedom of the

Pike River Mine stopped operating, halting the extraction of coal from the mine, and a loss of jobs to a large sector of the Greymouth community. Families have to leave the community in search of new occupations, affecting other businesses in the area relying on the occupants’ business.

He was a good manager but not a leader as he was exceptional planner and controller but was unable to have a good relationship with the team members. All of us never felt motivated by him to work.
