The Goonies Movie Analysis

The movie Napoleon Dynamite directed by Jared Hess and released June 11, 2004 is a comedy about an awkward teen that has trouble fitting in. Napoleon (Jon Heder) the main character, lives with his grandma until she gets into an accident and his life is immediately made worse when his uncle Rico (Jon Gries) who is stuck in his high school football “superstar” days knocks on their door and is there to keep an eye on Napoleon while his grandma is getting hospitalized. Napoleon has a red afro, wears moon boots, and is constantly practicing his atrocious ninja moves. Napoleon has a best friend in high school names Pedro (Efren Ramirez) who decides to run for class president, and it is up to Napoleon to step out of his comfort zone to help Pedro win, and get his information out around school. Napoleon Dynamite was excellent because it met the criteria of humor, acting, and the profound message.

Their costumes were amazing very realistic and funny, again love their creativity, especially how they added little bits of modern comedy and the narration was great. When the audience had the break and coming back in their setup was still great everything was perfect nothing falling or hanging off. As well as the switching of lights in the beginning middle and end it was beautiful and smooth.

The 1971 Mel Stewart film, “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, is about a little boy named Charlie Bucket, who is very poor and wants to do something to help his family. The movie starts by showing that there is a contest going on for people to win a special tour through the factory of Wonka Chocolate Company and a lifetime supply of chocolate. There are only five special golden tickets hidden inside products from the Wonka Company. When the five people have found the tickets, there is a big gathering on the day of the tour with big crowds of people and news people too to see Mr wonka come out from his factory to greet the winners. When the children and their parents are inside the factory the children sign a thing saying they will not steal or take information or do bad things and they all go on their way for the tour. Right away, it all seems very strange with coat hooks that move and weird size doors and rooms. Inside of the factory is very much a different world. The workers are small orange men who sing songs telling about the behaviors people should not have.

If that sort of stuff doesn’t bother you, you’ll love this movie. When there isn’t an action packed fight going on there is plenty of raunchy comedy to keep you laughing throughout the whole movie, as well as a juicy subplot between Doug and a girl he meets named Eva played by Alison Pill. I personally love the movie Goon and for me it’s an easy 6 out of 5 stars. One of the most amazing concepts to this movie is the plot is actually one hundred percent possible! And even better you don’t have to know anything about hockey to love this movie, just don’t let it give you the wrong impression of the game of hockey, although the vulgar language and crude jokes are something that is like clockwork in hockey; it’s not all

Michelle Han Tran Professor Thibodaux ENG 1157 3 December 2015 White Chicks: Farce and Purposeful Revenge of the Whiteface Controversy? When many people hear of the Wayans Brothers movie White Chicks, they would inevitably picture the humorous scene where Terry Crews, being the physically huge, prideful jock he is, ironically does gestures and lip-syncs to “A Thousand Miles” on his car radio. Everyone around me adores this particular movie with a passion, often quoting lines and reminiscing their favorite scenes. Moreover, White Chicks is and will forever be intact on our comedy list to watch on a Netflix night.

After a long semester of waiting we finally get to watch the film that was promised to us simply titled “Wonder Boys.” I’ve never heard of this movie before December 3rd so I was quite intrigued to see why my professor was so enthused by the mere thought of it. So I patiently waited (which by the way is not a thing I do often) for the following Tuesday to come hoping that it wouldn’t suck. After two days of watching the film I was not let down, my previous pessimistic thoughts were violently drop kicked off of the nearest tower. Not saying it’s the best movie ever, but I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Following Grady Tripp through clouds of marijuana we witness his affair with the Chancellor of his university, meet

As a kid friendly show, I could indulge in the silliness of the story line and some of the jokes, but it had a strong enough message that I felt I left the theater with something to think about and debate. It was relatable and really made me think about when I was Bruce and Violet and didn’t feel like I fit in. I really wish that this was something that my parents could have taken me to when I was younger. This is a show that I would recommend to anyone who wants to laugh but also be able to reflect on the world around

This isn't just another family road trip comedy as I thought it would be. This was a dark and quirky comedy at its best. The script and acting was brilliant, the characters were unusual and the ending was eventful and unpredictable. The grandpa said a lot of things that were probably inappropriate for younger watchers, and he used drugs, but they he ended up dying, which is a positive anti-drug message. Overall a beautiful movie, but parents need to be careful about showing even the edited version for

It is not every day you can find four young boys that can act well and mesh so well together. However, Gordie(Wheaton) and Charlie’s(Phoenix) acting performances are what stands out to me as having successful acting performances. Both actors could work on things, such as Gordie’s fake crying at the end; the crying could have been much more believable. Charlie and Gordie have compassion in their eyes, they can show anger, they can show support, and I think they gave a wonderful performance. A flaw in this movie would be Teddy(Feldman) and Vern’s(O’Connell) acting. While their acting is not what I would consider bad, I believe there are many things that they could work on. One example of this would be the humor Teddy tries to portray, I give him credit he is a child, but I think he could be more humorous than what he was. Critic Walter Goodman from The New York Times, states in his review that, “Some of their horsing around, 1950ish style, is comical, but too much of what they do is only too plainly imposed by the movie makers.” This opinion from Goodman is true for the most part and it makes me think about how differently the actors would have played their characters differently if so much was not imposed on their characters. However, I think the movie makers had no choice but to impose the characters because of each actors’ experience and maturity, they need more

Then, when their children grow up, they will share it with their own children. This movie will never go away and it will never get lost in the shuffle of the millions of animated works that have been made since. It’s original, and it’s a classic. Audiences will always come back for

The Goonies, solving their problems through adventure as one would always want to. The Goonies came out in 1985, Steven Spielberg directed it, and the main characters are as follows: Mikey, Mouth, Chunk, and Data. In the film the people who own the land that Mikey’s house is on want to make a golf course and in the process destroy the house, but if Mikey and his family can buy the land then they can stay. They find a map in the attic that apparently leads to a treasure so they can pay for the house. There are criminals that want the treasure as well just to be rich. The Goonies eventually find the treasure and get the criminals arrested. We will be analyzing a scene from The Goonies directed by Steven Spielberg. In the scene from early in the film, Chunk is at the gate and wants Mouth to open it, but Mouth will not open the gate unless chunk does the Truffle Shuffle.

Meanwhile, both movies oozing their own exceptional ingenuity of witty humor. The remarkable ignorant/shallow attitude delivered by the sarcastically deadpanned actors were likable and

With a messed up ending of a very bad twist and weird Idea that left the viewer asking why am I even here. The movie although thought to be great just like your grandmas cookies was terrible. They both had a lot to offer but neither brought

I found the movie very enjoyable.Some reasons why I think that is because they movie have a lot of funny parts like,when the boys go swimming another reason why this movie is funny is because they always get into some kind of trouble.

Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, at first blush, looked to be a throwaway - a rudimentary, immature, potty-humor laced animated family film that would likely expend a ton of energy for a cheap laugh or two and provide an addled, hyperkinetic, cinematic experience that rivaled eating an entire bag of Sour Patch Kids and drinking 64 oz. of Mountain Dew. To say my thoughts walking into the film were clouded, would be an understatement.
