Textual Analysis Of The Perfect Guy

Satisfactory Essays

The Perfect Guy (2015), by David M. Rosenthal, was a very interesting movie. The main characters who makes the movie interesting are: Leah, who was plays by Sanaa Lathan; Carter, who was plays by Michael Ealy; and Dave, who was plays by Morris Chestnut. Of course, there are more characters within the film, but the story was mainly about the three listed above. In other words, the story was mainly about Leah, who was a professional woman that was dating Dave for two years, who wants to take his time with her, he does not want to get married or have kids at the moment. Leah leaves her boyfriend for two years, Dave, and starts dating Carter, whom she passionately gets involve with who seems almost too good to be true. The two things that I will be critiquing about the film are: the actors and the editing. To being with, the characters plays their roles comfortably which makes the movie look realistic. Leah and Dave plays as a couple as well as Leah and Carter. …show more content…

One example of montage was when previews of the new movie shows the viewers that Carter was under Leah’s bed while she was lying down with her eyes open.

Another example of montage was when the viewer’s sees was when Leah takes a steaming shower, Carter was in her house and puts his hands on the shower glass. However, when viewers goes to see the film, Leah and Dave was taking a shower together and Carter appears in the bathroom and puts his hand on the glass. The commercial and the actual film has an extraordinary way to prank viewer’s minds because of the two examples above. I personally think that Sobel work was indescribable because the way he mise-en-scene all of the scenes and how the movie was playing
