變形金剛
I honestly don't know where to start with this movie. I will say however, that - like many other people - this is the film I've been waiting 20 years to see.
I suppose it's sensible to start with what should be the foundation stone of any cinematic experience - the script. It's cheesy, cliché-ridden, and poorly-structured. Characterisation (especially of the Autobots/Decepticons) is non-existent. Optimus Prime uttering the words "My bad" must go down in history as one of the worst moments in movie history. Actually scratch that - the "lubricating" scene is definitely worse. The writing of human characters is lazy at best, sticking with stereotypes such as the beautiful code-breaker, fat computer whizz, bumbling government agent etc etc. The performances (Shia aside) are instantly forgettable, but a great deal of that comes down to the script and direction. Megan Fox may be a great actress for all I know, but she may as well be a stripper for the purposes of this movie.
The effects are incredible (although not helped by Bay's erratic editing style), but when you've no reason to care about them it results in an empty experience. Effects DON'T MAKE A MOVIE.
With Spielberg as part of this project I allowed myself a little optimism, but it's patently clear that Bay and Co. had no understanding or respect for the Transformers franchise. GIANT "FLIPPING" ROBOTS BLOWING "STUFF" UP this may be, but it is most certainly not Transformers.

What can I say about Pixar? Amazing?? Perfect?? Got to see this at the Cannes Film Festival in France (went on a trip with my family) and Pixar gives us another instant classic: Up.
The movie focuses on 78-year old man Carl Fredrickson's (voiced by Edward Asner) life who always had a dream of going on a journey to South American to see the wilds of it. He buys thousands of balloons just to attach it to his house to float up in the sky. So, he starts with his journey up in the sky in his house with balloons attached to it. Suddenly, he's not alone and somebody's at the door while flying, it's a boy scout kid named Russell. He invites the boy with him on his journey to South America.
Just brilliant and simple story-telling, beautiful visuals as usual with Pixar, awesome voice work, funny and smart dialogue, beautiful score once again by Michael Giacchino & very, very enjoyable characters. Speaking of characters, the highlight of the film: Dug the Dog. A sort of "robot" dog that will have you have you in a lot of stitches each scene that dog is in and that was the case with me. Simply, one of the funniest characters Pixar ever made. Pete Doctor, one of the four Pixar directors (John Lassester, Andrew Stanton, Brad Bird) who directed Monster's Inc (2001) needs and should get nominated for his clever, genius and smart directing of this but if Stanton didn't get the nods for (Finding Nemo and WALL-E) and Bird for (The Incredibles & Ratatouille) which they should of been, then the Oscars are making another HUGE mistake for not nominating this guy for this movie.
Up is the funniest Pixar movie, funnier than the Toy Story movies, A Bug's Life & Finding Nemo which were the funniest, in my opinion. The movie is not just hilarious, it's emotional and sad at times. Like WALL-E, it focuses on the character feelings but not as magical as WALL-E. Still, Up is full of emotional, fun and hilarious proportions. Your in for a BIG ride in this!!

阿甘正傳
To be honest, I've never seen anyone like Forrest Gump in a movie before.Forrest Gump who is unfortunately to be born with a lower IQ and the muscle problem, usually, people always think this kind of person can't be successful in doing anything. But, instead, this unlucky man has achieved lots of incredible success, he is a football star, a war hero, and later a millionaire!
Forrest Gump not only shares his innocence and purity with others, ,he also manages to retain that innocence through some very difficult times. I love Forrest that he doesn't lose his purity through the movie, or maybe he just can't ,but either way, this shows us don't need to be evil or really intelligent to be recognised or successful.
It is just a movie, so maybe it doesn't work like that in reality.A simply means is that the acting and story of this film got a high level like the real . And in my definition that's what a good movie should be able to do.
忠犬八公
I watched Hachiko: A Dog』s Story days ago, eyes filling with tear. It』s really a fantasticly moving film.
The plot went as: A college professor (Richard Gere) took in an abandoned dog and they formed an unbreakable bond. The dog arrived daily at the correct time at the station, to meet his owner. After the professor died while away from home, the dog kept vigil waiting for his master for nearly a decade.
To wait for your love for a decade, which contains almost the whole life-time of Hachi, it』s an incredible dedication that we human beings never has. This is why the film strikes us a lot.
No one has the ability to show his love to only one person ring his whole life, let alone make friends with only one people; have the food that never changes year by year; do the same damn thing without complaining and conciousness of exhaustion. We can』t! However, what we could learn from Hachi is that we should never forget the one we once loved.
A detail in the movie catches my eyes. One day when professor was on his way to school, Hachi fetched the tennis ball as he was taught years ago. But ring the last several years, he never did like that, because to fetch a ball in this way is not his instinct. Why Hachi did so? He wants to entertain his master for more palatable food, for a hug? I』m afraid not.
Research and statistics prove that pets are more sensitive in human』s potantial deseases than us do. Hachi fetched that ball because he knew that his master is going to die because of his heart desease. It』s his only way to hold him back.
Hachi has been waiting in the weeds, waiting for his only fellow to walk him home. His hope has been floating in the breeze, carrying his loneliness and misery all above the ground. Maybe professor knows, but he could never come back.
冰雪公主
I watched a film in computer, the film is named <Ice Princess>.
Although this is a typical commercial film, but deeply touched my heart. Only sticking to dream can we realize to it. I remember when cancy gave up Harvard, she and her mother have such a conversation:
Mother: Cancy, you can't do this, you are giving up your dream!
Cancy: No, mom, I'm giving up your dream!
See here, I understand why this movie will have so much resonance. I feel like Cancy, the parent holding her give up her's dream, but never thought about whether her wants. I admire Cancy, when she faces her mother love things, but she doesn』t like to it, she has the courage to refuse it. A dream for many people, the word may indeed just a dream, only to survive in the heart, never thought I could go for, only too much because they can not cast aside, after the failure of total fear nothing. Indeed, the cruel reality can really frustrate a person's enthusiasm. Yes, I still want to give it ago, the same as Cancy.
The film also does make my mind suddenly had a big change, I began to call upon their past, are beginning to understand the way the future. It must be my own. The need to pursue the dream of the cost, I must learn to give up a lot of other things. Thinking many times, each time hit my heart. Touched me the most is that race credits Cancy, the mother arrived at the scene that period. I think, no more than the support of parents had more power to you.Thus we should be respect our parents and persuade them support our dream, then we feel very happy.

The Scar of History- Nanking
Frankly speaking, I almost have no idea about what a movie truly described, even though, I really like watching movies. I watched lots movies, but I remembered rarely. Some people may say that』s all right or that』s happened, yes, that』s happened. What should I care? If you are totally impressed by a movie, I think the movie will deeply insert in your heart and touch your spirit with a strange magic which will give you some different feelings, just like happiness, sweet, free, or even some pain, depressed, anger, and crazy. Just because those feelings you got, how can you forget them?
Iris Chang--The Rape of Nanking is such a documentary film that impressed me so deeply. I don』t know whether you have been watched it? Just like me. I don』t know whether you have the feelings just like I have. Iris Chang--The Rape of Nanking, this movie was based on a book named The Rape of Nanking written by Zhang Chunru, a Chinese American, who was the first person written the rape of Nanking in English. In other words, we can say that this movie is talking about Zhang Chunru and how can she finished her book The Rape of Nanking. This was a road with lots incredible experiences and made me really depressed with shaking.
At the beginning of this film, the sea waved beat the beach again and again, as like the story of history knock on our mind and want tell us her sadness, blood, tears, and remind us some things. As Iris Chang said, people all around the world knew massacre made by Nazi, in the contrast, human rarely knew that a merciless massacre took place in Nanking, China made by Japanese. At the very start, Iris Chang knew a few about this terrible event. With the passage of time, she grew up and she realized she had no choice that she must do something to let people know this event. Some old movies, old pictures appeared crossed with the modern society, which make you feel brightly shock to your eyes. With the old picture and the modern picture crossed that makes me feel like I was close with the event. With some different kinds of materials appeared before my eyes, it made the event more reality, I realized that Iris Chang suffered a lot of pain.
During she collected materials about the rape of Nanking, she worked hard. Given this circumstance, a lot times she couldn』t help crying, was almost breakdown. Even though, she didn』t stop, she kept going. With a journey to Nanking city, she felt it is an emergency thing which she should do as quickly as she can to show the Nanking massacre around the world. In Nanking, she visited a lot people who were survivals in the Nanking massacre. The survival』s telling was an extremely shocking, from their eyes, from the dearest relatives who were killed by the Japanese soldiers, and from the merciless scar on their flawed body that you couldn』t imagine how horrible humiliations they suffered. This was the eternal scar and pain branded in their hearts.
With this in mind, sometimes I had a badly feeling that I was depressed, I breathe hardly, I almost throw up, and I』m in totally anger. During that moment, there were several heroes who gave some Nanking citizens a hand. Even though, the Japanese soldiers without humanistic, they made an array of terrible activities treat Chinese people. The beast killed Chinese people as recreational activities. They raped Chinese women (from 14 years old to 80 years old) and killed them with some unbelievable ways. Japanese soldiers killed little babies with their bayonet, and throw them away. They are just little babies, can you imagine that? Iris Chang said, sometimes she supposed that if she was born in that time, in the Nanking city, she maybe one of the dead people lay on the road where was filled with blood and dead bodies. In the night, when she was settling with the evidences, she sometimes appeared with convulsion and hardly stopped it, just shaking. Graally, when she combed her hairs, her hair dropped piece by piece. At that time, she was in a dark mood with heavy stress. Her parents asked her 「should you continuous to write this book?」 She replied, 「Contrast with the survivals go through, mine undergo is nothing. I had to finish this book.」 What were really bitterly disappointed to Iris were the people who pass up the facts. In the modern society there are still many Japanese Who deny the Nanking massacre. They want to wipe out this history. Furthermore, they do not want to charge with their guilt. Those ridiculous thoughts hit Iris Chang』s faith which was 「human』s nature is virtuous」. When I watch the period which filmed a modern Japanese citizen who denied the Nanking massacre was made by Japan, in contrast, he thought that this entire event was totally played by the Chinese government. The unbelievable cruel pictures and the foreigners』 evidences was not real, they just arranged by Chinese government. How ridiculous he was! How can he think like this? Such an asshole! Go to hell! You are such a beast! History father will break you down! I was abusing those people who were dare not express the fact—out of fear, out of anxiety, out of their nation. I cried, what does the tear mean? The tears meant what? Meaning Nanking Massacre, meaning the dead people, meaning Iris Chang, or meaning the pain of the history?
「Just a little child, they took it all away, your blood, your life, your trust, your faith, you died, reborn in pain….」 This song appeared when Iris Chang was in badly sadness ring she read or meat the actual distressed things. Iris Chang cried with her twittered body, she took the pain as her own. When I heard this song, my nose twitched and I began to weep. With a long silence, I dry my tears. This song really moved me, 「I』ll give voice to the voiceless (silenced for too long), crying out for justice (silenced for too long), trust me with your pain, I』ll take it as my own, I』ll fight to get the truth told, my weapon is my word.」 Iris Chang was such a young lady in her most glorious age with artistic talent. She can have an amazing future, she can have more children, she can stroll around the park with her husband, and she can be happier, but all of this just can be with her left. After she finished the book Iris Chang – the Rape of Nanking, she was completely succeeded. She brought a large effect among the North America. But several years later, after a depressive episode resulting from a nervous breakdown, she took her own life. I think she was completely put herself into suffer. She was stranded by the miserable stories. With the deepest she sank into and the unbelievable pain she faced, how can she stand it? Only when a person who really cared about a thing, they will took it as their own part, just like Iris Chang. If it works, I hope that Iris Chang was still alive, and use her words to let more people know the truth of history, bring the real justice to the world.
With time goes on, a lot of changes emerge in the modern society. The scar of history doesn』t disappear, they are just there, and to remind human beings doesn』t repeat the tragic event. Only when people realized it, they will not let these things happened in their country, their area, and their city. We need the real justice and we need more voice to the voiceless. Just like the lyrics sing 「it』s done, the page』s filled, with blood and tears, not in vain, the world will finally hear, I gave voice to the voiceless, now I』m silencing my own, what I』ve left behind, remember, in you, my spirit lives on, find my light, pass it on.」 I hope tomorrow will be better!

❿ 急求三篇英文的電影觀後感大神們幫幫忙
英文影評:千與千尋(Spirited Away) Animated feature from Japanese master Hayao Miyazaki. A young girl finds herself trapped in a mystical realm, where she must find a way to save her parents - who have been turned into pigs There's something almost criminal about the way Spirited Away took over two years to reach Britain after its original Japanese release. In Japan, Hayao Miyazaki is both commercially successful (his films regularly beat box office records) and highly respected (Akira Kurosawa said: "I am somewhat disturbed when critics lump our works together. One cannot mimimise the importance of Miyazaki's work by comparing it to mine."). In Britain, however, his work has barely got more than a few cursory arts venue screenings. At least Spirited Away - which took the Berlin Golden Bear in 2002 and the Best Animated Film Oscar in 2003 - made it. Better late than never. After the stress of making his last film, 1997's Princess Mononoke, Miyazaki had a breakdown and retired. But he came out of retirement when an idea to create another, lighter film began to take shape. Princess Mononoke was an action-packed epic that ranged across 15th century Japan. For Spirited Away he returned to the quieter - but no less serious - themes that he addressed to a degree in 1988's My Neighbor Tortoro. Both films feature a family moving house, girls getting used to upheaval, and elements of 'Alice In Wonderland'. But where the 1988 film used a few specific motifs from Carroll's book (a plunge into a 'rabbit hole', a version of the Cheshire cat), Spirited Away casts its 10-year-old protagonist, Chihiro (Hragi; or Chase in the US b), fully into a Wonderland, a mystical otherworld populated by animal spirits and gods. Chihiro arrives in this realm by accident. Her parents, heading for their new home, take a road that leads into the woods. Arriving at a dead end, they walk down a corridor through a building and emerge in what dad takes to be "an abandoned theme park". It's something like a Japanese Portmeirion, but eerily deserted. While her parents greedily help themselves to food, Chihiro wanders off and meets Haku (Irino; or Marsden), a boy who warns her to leave before dark. She's too late though - a lake has appeared, blocking her route, ghostly forms have populated the town and her parents have turned into pigs. She's trapped. The only way to survive, Haku tells her, is to get work in the bath house that dominates the town. Here "eight million gods rest their weary bones", according to Yubaba (Natsuki; or Pleshette), the witch who runs the establishment. Chihiro makes her way to meet Yubaba with the help of Kamajii (Sugawara; Ogden Stiers), a multi-limbed codger who runs the boiler house, Lin (Tamai; Egan), a serving woman with a taste for "roasted newt", and even a 'Radish God', a giant sumo of a chap with tuber-like appendages. Yubaba is hardly forthcoming - her realm is "no place for humans" - but she's forced to give Chihiro work, thanks to an oath she swore. Chihiro gets work helping Lin. But the management give them the worst jobs - such as assisting a hideous oozing creature they take to be a "Stink God; an extra large stinker at that". It's an entity so foul its smell makes food rot instantaneously, while its suppurations fill the room with a noxious gloop. Chihiro - or Sen as she becomes when Yubaba takes her name as part of her contract - does get by in the bath house, but it's not without further incident. She may lose her identity, but she retains her decency. One act of kindness results in a dangerous spirit, No Face, getting into the bath house and wreaking havoc by playing on the greed of the other employees ("Gold springs from his palms!"). She even gets involved in an adventure that reveals her mysterious bond with Haku. But can she save her parents? It's often said that Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira (1988) is the greatest anime ever. That's as maybe, but every one of Miyazaki's films is a masterpiece, so it's hard to pick just one that stands out. It's also tricky to compare his works with the more traditionally received notion of anime (giant robots, demons with phallic tentacles, telekinetic fighting, atom bomb-style explosions etc). Although Miyazaki insists it's not his role to be didactic, all of his work (notably his second feature Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind and Princess Mononoke) has strong messages about ecology and the human relationship with the natural world. But he's also fascinated with coming-of-age stories, notably about how girls (many of his protagonists are young females) can not only face up to alt responsibility, but also how they can become strong, principled members of society. Here Chihiro is forced to grow up fast, but the process, while gruelling, is not without real benefits, as her understanding of the way society functions and experience of alt emotions develops exponentially. Some aspects of the film are likely to be too foreign for Westerners - we're ignorant of Japanese belief systems, with their hierarchies of entities - but Miyazaki's work has the power to transcend such culturally specific elements. While many of his earlier films drew on European stories (such as 1986's Castle In The Sky, from Swift), the folkloric features he reworks are often universal. But most of all, his team's animation - here utilising more digital techniques, while still being grounded in 2D traditions - is always beautiful and, in places, breathtaking. Locations are atmospheric, details are immaculate (you can identify the flower species in the gardens) and characters are diverse. Yubaba, for example, is a bizarre creation, a stocky woman with a huge head and even bigger hairdo; the bath house itself is stocked with all sorts of weird and wonderful creatures, from a Kermit-like assistant, to creatures reminiscent of his cuddly woodland deity from My Neighbor Tortoro, to troll-like beasts that look related to Maurice Sendak's 'Wild Things'). The only factor that could be seen as mildly misjudged is J Hisaishi's score, which is overbearing in places. It's no wonder the likes of Pixar's John Lasseter (who executive proced the US b) are so full of praise for Miyazaki. He's a true genius, an artist and great filmmaker who happens to work in animation - a medium often belittled as childish in the West. Spirited Away is wonderful. 蜜蜂總動員 Bee Movie review by Roger Ebert From each according to his ability, to each according to his need. -- Karl Marx Applied with strict rigor, that's how bee society works in Jerry Seinfeld's "Bee Movie" and apparently in real life. Doesn't seem like much fun. You are born, grow a little, attend school for three days, and then go to work for the rest of your life. "Are you going to work us to death?" a young bee asks ring a briefing. "We certainly hope so!" says the smiling lecturer, to appreciative chuckles all around. One bee, however, is not so thrilled with the system. His name is Barry B. Benson, and he is voiced by Seinfeld as a rebel who wants to experience the world before settling down to a lifetime job as, for example, a Crud Remover. He sneaks into a formation of ace pollinators, flies out of the hive, has a dizzying flight through Central Park, and ends up (never mind how) making a friend of a human named Vanessa (voice of Renee Zellweger). Then their relationship blossoms into something more, although not very much more, given the physical differences. Compared to them, a Chihuahua and a Great Dane would have it easy. This friendship is against all the rules. Bees are forbidden to speak to humans. And humans tend to swat bees (there's a good laugh when Barry explains how a friend was offed by a rolled-up of French Vogue). What Barry mostly discovers from human society is, gasp!, that humans rob the bees of all their honey and eat it. He and Adam, his best pal (Matthew Broderick), even visit a bee farm, which looks like forced labor of the worst sort. Their instant analysis of the human-bee economic relationship is pure Marxism, if only they knew it. Barry and Adam end up bringing a lawsuit against the human race for its exploitation of all bees everywhere, and this court case (with a judge voiced by Oprah Winfrey) is enlivened by the rotund, syrupy voiced Layton T. Montgomery (John Goodman), attorney for the human race, who talks like a cross between Fred Thompson and Foghorn Leghorn. If the bees win their case, Montgomery jokes, he'd have to negotiate with silkworms for the stuff that holds up his britches. All of this material, written by Seinfeld and writers associated with his television series, tries hard, but never really takes off. We learn at the outset of the movie that bees theoretically cannot fly. Unfortunately, in the movie, that applies only to the screenplay. It is really, really, really hard to care much about a platonic romantic relationship between Renee Zellweger and a bee, although if anyone could pull if off, she could. Barry and Adam come across as earnest, articulate young bees who pursue logic into the realm of the bizarre, as sometimes happened on the "Seinfeld" show. Most of the humor is verbal, and tends toward the gently ironic rather than the hilarious. Chris Rock scores best, as a mosquito named Mooseblood, but his biggest laugh comes from a recycled lawyer joke. In the tradition of many recent animated films, several famous people turn up playing themselves, including Sting (how did he earn that name?) and Ray Liotta, who is called as a witness because his brand of Ray Liotta Honey profiteers from the labors of bees. Liotta's character and voice work are actually kind of inspired, leaving me to regret the absence of B.B. King, Burt's Bees, Johnny B. Goode, and the evil Canadian bee slavemaster Norman Jewison, who -- oh, I forgot, he exploits maple trees.
