Movie Analysis: Dumb And Dumber

Oh gosh!!! There were so many things wrong with this movie, I am not even sure where to begin. So, "Vacation" is the seventh in the "National Lampoon's Vacation" series, and this one should have most definitely remained in the ether. This newest offering is hallmarked by the deirectorial debut of John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstien, both of which have been tapped to write the newest Spider-Man reboot, which if this movie was any indication of what is to come, does in no way bode well for poor ol' Spidey.

O Brother Where Art Thou? The movie is set in Mississippi in the late 1930's, with The Great Depression looming in the background. A condensed plot, are that the three main characters Ulysses McGill, Pete Hogwallop and Delmar O'Donnell are convicts that break away from a chain gang. They break away because they're on a quest to find the treasure that Everett hid. As the three men go along in their literal chains, they run into a ton of problems and interesting characters like The KKK, a campaigning governor, a robber, and a blind prophet. From the research I have done, the popular opinion is that this film is loosely based on the book, "The Odyssey". The overall tone and mood is somewhat goofy, but it has some heavy topics behind it like The

In the movie, See What I’m Saying, there are three Deaf men and one Hard of Hearing women. Their names are: Robert DeMayo, TL Forsberg. Bob Hiltermann and C.J Jones. Through out the movie, each person shows us a glimpse of their lives and what they have to deal with on a daily basis. See What I’m Saying shines a light on the oppressive behaviors within the performing arts industry and within mainstream media, and how these four individuals must navigate through their lives as performing artist.

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.

Then the driver turned and replies”I don’t know yet, I haven’t got any instructions on where to take you.” Then I realize that the driver was Jimmy. Then I ask”Jimmy? Jimmy Wells is that you?” And he doesn’t reply for what seems like two or three minutes.

The mechanic told them that if they’re in a hurry to be on the road, they must push the van in order to start it off. The family’s desperation to get to their destination on time forced them to push the van. Pushing vans in order to drive them these days is simply silliness. Even sillier is after their stopover a gas station because after pushing the van and getting it back on the road, they realize they forget Olive Hoover (Abigail Breslin). Instead of stopping to pick her up, they drove pass the gas station and forces Olive to jump in the

Wilkinson looked to the rear of Tucker’s pickup noticing the payload and then focused his attention on the driver. “Say, son, looks like you got a good amount of freight under that tarp there, whatchya hauling?”

This was my second time watching The Breakfast Club and to be completely honest the first time I watched this movie I wasn't all that impressed. I was glad I got the chance to watch this movie again and this time with the prospective of psychology background. My favorite characters were the jock, Andrew Clark, and the basket case, Allison Reynolds. To me these two characters showed very different examples of adolescent struggles. This was a very interesting movie because it was a coming of age story for five different characters that took place all in one day.

When reading the first couple of pages of the short story, I concluded that the story was taking place back in the day because of the price of the herring snacks (464). I would never find herring for 49 cents. I was able to relate to the situation of the boy when the lady got mad when he rang up the item wrong. I work at a grocery store so I am able to relate to people getting made when you ring up an item twice. They get very mad and act like it’s the end of the world. I found it rude that Sammy called the girls pale and chunky even though he did not mean any harm to call the girls that (461). The girls did not have a name so they made of ones. When Sammy describes the girls that he sees, it reminds me of the movie “Mean Girls” because of

The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton and To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee are two very similar books. They both show the similarities and differences of people in difference social and economical classes. In The Outsiders, it talks about the differences between the Greasers and the Socs. To Kill a Mockingbird compares the people with and without money, people with no friends and plenty of friends, and people who care and those who don’t. The main connections between the two books is that they show that everyone is equal, that people aren’t raised hating someone, and that a lot of the hate comes from comparison.

When it comes to a child being sick, how can you know who has the best interest of the child in mind? The doctor, or the Parents? The movie First do no Harm, is a good example of having to decide what is right for a child needing medical procedures. During the movie Lori Reimuller’s son Robbie gets diagnosed with Idiopathic Epilepsy, and it has a big effect of the communication and thinking of Lori’s family. This essay contains an evaluation of the following: (a) critical thinking of the Parents, (b) critical thinking of the medical team, (c) and the communication skills of all of the characters in the movie First, Do No Harm. (Abrahams, et al., 1997)

Even though the book and the movie have the same ending, they both have completely different endings. The movie ends with a flashback and the book ends with dialogue. In the flashback, you can see George and Lennie loading hay onto the back of a truck. They then turn to each other and Lennie smiles at George. George smiles back and they turn and walk away from the truck. The scene then fades to black as they walk farther away. I believe that this flashback leaves the audience feelings mournful and gloomy. After witnessing George shoot Lennie, the audience is already very emotional and upset about the fact that Lennie is now dead so seeing the flashback of Lennie and George together again makes the audience even more upset. The audience has

1. Continuity error: After the chase Sully, until you drive the yellow Porsche Annie away completely, and the wreck on the left, it's okay. 2. Continuity error: after the arrival hit in the face by Gary Buckles 'broken' suspension, we see a silver buckle Country Cupboard below. However, when he released his legs moaning and get on the bed, we can actually still see the latch Stay on the front suspension that comes with dangling behind the right (look between his legs).

District 9 (Peter Jackson, 2009), a science fiction film produced by Peter Jackson, is a rare gem unlike the many sci-fi movies which have been released in our time. The story is established via a mix of standard third person camera and documentary footage and takes place in the present - a twist from your regular science fiction film which normally takes place in the future. The film, about a colony of alien refugees forced by humans to live in a South African slum, is an example of social satire by presenting a critique of the injustice with which we treat those who are different from us. The metaphors of science fiction are being used to portray the nature of racism; with the way that racist ideology and discourse deals with those different
