B. 新西兰电影whale的英文读后感
摘自IMDB:
Truly a film for the entire family to enjoy together.
21 March 2004 | by allisonmckinley ([email protected]) (Yorkshire, England) – See all my reviews
正文:
If you have lost your belief in magic, perhaps this is a tale you need to hear about a film you need to see. It is the story of a thirteen-year-old girl, a class clown, a show-off. When strangers invaded her classroom one day, she continued to do what she was used to doing, playing the fool, thus attracting the strangers' attention.
The strangers cast her as the lead in a film. Though it looked like a small film to begin with, it turned out to be an international blockbuster. Then one day, she read in the newspaper that she had been nominated for the most prestigious acting award in the entire world. Her first acting performance had catapulted her from obscurity to the winner's circle, in competition with Diane Keaton, Samantha Morton, Charlize Theron and Naomi Watts for Best Actress in a Leading Role.
Keisha Castle-Hughes is the youngest person ever to be nominated for best actress by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Anna Paquin, discovered by the same casting agent, won an Oscar in 1993 for The Piano, but that was for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. Yet she was not the youngest. In 1973, Tatem O'Neal won for Paper Moon at the ripe old age of ten.
So, we have established that fairy tales can still come true, but not without the proper vehicle, and I do not mean a pumpkin drawn by white mice. The vehicle in this instance is a very carefully designed and orchestrated film. And where do great films start? With the writer(s), of course.
Another fairy tale? Witi Ihimaera is the first Maori writer ever to have published both a book of short stories and a novel. He says he was sitting in his New York home one day overlooking the Hudson River when he saw a whale breach the waterline. A whale in the Hudson River? Mr. Ihimaera took it as a sign.
Inspired by stories of ancient tradition that streamed into his mind, over the next three weeks, Mr. Ihimaera wrote The Whale Rider. It is this one work of his that the Maori community accepts as being most representative of their culture, and the novel that became the backbone for the screenplay for the film Whale Rider (co-written by Witi Ihimaera and director Niki Caro).
Maori legend tells of a great man, Paikea, who came many ages ago riding o n the back of a whale and landed on the shores of a new world. He left word that someday another great whale rider would be born to lead the Maori people.
The film begins with a scene in a hospital of a young woman giving birth to twins. The boy is stillborn. With her last breath, she whispers to her husband, `Paikea, Paikea.' The remaining girl child is blessed with that name as the mother dies.
Paikea's father, Porourangi (Cliff Curtis), crushed by the loss of his wife, departs his homeland, leaving Paikea in the caring hands of his parents, Koro and Nanny Flowers. `Pai' grows and becomes strong in the teachings of her people, yet she hears an inner voice as well.
Koro, her grandfather, is the chief of his people. When he sees that his son will not return, he begins to train the local boys in the ways of leadership. Pai believes that she could become the leader of her people, but her grandfather, though he loves her, rejects her.
Pai cannot be daunted; she is tougher than any of the boys. She hides around corners and eavesdrops as the boys are trained, learning the lessons, dance, movements and traditional ceremonies of her people.
Once he feels they are ready, Koro takes the boys out in a boat on the ocean and here he removes the carved whale's tooth, symbol of the chief, from around his neck, tossing it into the water. Though they try, none of the boys is able to retrieve it.
Here, the film takes a turn, one that is somewhat unexpected, and one that sets this film apart from the run of the mill. As part of a school pageant, Pai has written a work in honor of her people and has asked her grandfather to attend. It is this performance of the young woman that tests her skills as an actress, and is certainly one of the most touching moments in the film.
The rest of the film does not hinge so much on whether Pai's grandfather attends her performance or not. Something else occurs. Seven whales have beached themselves on the shore. Paikea has called the whales and they have responded to her call. As the people of the village struggle to help the whales return to the ocean before they die, Koro's other son shows him the carved whale's tooth.
`Which of the boys got it?' Koro asks. His son tells him it wasn't one of the boys. `It was she,' he says, pointing to Paikea, now sitting on the back of the biggest of the whales.
There is a very big difference in a film made for twelve-year-old girls and a film about a twelve-year-old girl, especially one on the threshold of womanhood. This is a film about traditions, about beliefs, about growing up, about magic, and about love.
Director Niki Caro transcends ordinary film making with Whale Rider. The film played to standing ovations at both the Toronto and Sundance film festivals, and with good reason. It is not a film that tells us anything is possible. It shows us. It does not sink into despair over the disappearing way of life of the Maori people. It shows us that any group of people, any tribe or village, any nation, can survive and even prosper if we rely on what we feel in our hearts.

阿甘正传" Life is like a wide variety of chocolates, you never know that one belongs to you." The first sentence of Agam's mother, explained to us: each person's life path is the one and only, and it is the. Agam, was listening to this ecation, work steadily ground stepped out of their own life.
In the film's beginning and end, see: under the blue sky, a light and feather drop from the clouds, slowly landed at Agam 's feet. I think, this is in fact the film hinted at us: this world, if someone we can see the life like a feather, pure, plain and beautiful, so, the person, must be Agam.
The young Agam had leg has disability, then, Agam's mother had to her beloved son set the last heavy metal, to assist their walking. So, often after school on the road, companions would laugh at Agam, playing with Agam, even after Agam threw stones. Often at this time, the female classmate Jeanne said: "Agam, run." Then, Agam panic, started to run, stumble struggled to climb up ... ... Graally, iron shelf is no bound him, he finally running swiftly. Companions can not catch up with him, only helplessly hoping to be at a loss what to do. For this, should say Agam was the first miracle of life.
With astonishing speed, Agam entered the NFL team, then went to university and eventually graate. Soon, he took part in the Vietnam war. In Vietnam, Agam's forces were ambushed, a retreat order, Agam remembered Jeanne asked:" however, ran." Agam then turned and ran. He became the only remnant. Here, the audience probably will laugh. Agam if not run fast, can not be later returns to rescue a wounded buddy Agam; if not back to save his comrades, so Agam is not Agam.
Perhaps, once, some people often feel life burden is overweight, because in front of the difficulties, and become dejected and despondent, feel depressed all day. Agam, faith is so simple, and so clear, even if be congenitally deficient, even in front of barren hills and turbulent rivers, the lovely Agam definitely to an absolutely normal heart sees them, and eventually the one one cross. In order to reach the peak of life, get the final glory.
Agam's life is only a supporting life love, that is love; Agam life only to love a girl Jeanne, except that he never know; he can in order to commemorate the dead buddy Babu, and as they are not familiar with the shrimp instry ( only because of the words of Babu ) ... ...
At every stage of life, Agam 's only one goal in mind to guide him, he steadfastly, tirelessly, firmly fight, until the completion of this goal, or the emergence of new goals. No pure choice will not have pure mind; without the mind distracting thoughts of people, perhaps only in life can suffer light weightlifting.
Agam was shaped in the film became the embodiment of virtue, honesty, trustworthiness, careful, brave and emotional importance, only understands the human pays not return, never mind others refused, he was generous, magnanimous to face life. He took their only wisdom, faith, courage concentrated at one point, he regardless of anything, only know by intuition on the road constantly running, he ran a child class discrimination, running across the university football field, running through the fire falling on Vietnam, running across the ping pong diplomacy battlefield, traveled across the United States, and eventually went to the end of his.
Each read Agam."" people would get a little out of sentiment: life is like the sky white feathers, or strike with the wind, or the wind, or fly in the blue sky, or falling into the abyss ... ...

悲惨世界
Jean Valjean: Valjean is a man that was released after 19 years of hard labor, his stubborn character made Javert revulse him. His amazing strength also gave Javert a deep impression, and they have a life chasing each other. When he was released on parole, he was inspired by a priest up after renamed as mayor, he has compassion, helped a woman named Fantine raised her daughter Cosette. He had free Javert for twice and finally touched his soul, made him know that no one is born evil. He had save her daughter's lover ring a revolution, a revolutionary youth named Marius, after his daughter have a good end-result, with sin love he left the world.
This is the story of Jean Valjean, a man which was a courier from God, an angel of love, which touched many people’s soul, and which was touched by the Bishop. He made Javert know that everyone is born kind, only the surroundings they were brought up made them become good or bad, it may affect them. Valjean brought Fantine’s child, Cosette up, he gave her everything that he can, he gave her the love that no one can give, and he even saved her lover when he knew he may die. Also, he is a good man, and good man get good reward, when the revolutionary youth thought he was a man like Javert, Gavroche saved him, Gavroche knows he is a good man, will never hurt them.
Fantine: She is a poor woman which has a child, after being found, she was fired from the factory. She needed to sell her jewelry, hair, tooth, body, unfortunately became a prostitute. She was unfairly beaten, and unfairly accused, Valjean saved her, he brought her to the hospital, and promised to take care of her child, after Valjean made the promise, she left the world, with peaceful face, she let go of her Cosette, because she knew Cosette will be well with Mr. Madeline.
Cosette: She is the poor child of Fantine, she was sent to an inn of the Thenardiers, but she lived a unfortunate life there, the money Fantine send to the Thenardiers, were all spent on their dear daughter Eponine, only a little was given to little Cosette for food and drink. They made her to sweep the floor and collect water from the woods. Finally one night, when she went to collect water from the woods, she met Mr. Madeline, Mr. Madeline bought her from the Thenardiers, and gave her a free life, she got in love with Marius, and she love her father, Valjean, very much. She is a very kind girl, when there were hundreds, maybe even thousands of poor people were begging on the street, she came out with her father, and gave silver to those she can see. She was one of those that were protected by God, her lover was saved, she would have a happy life, her father went to paradise, with her mother, they will look at her all her life.
Javert: He is the man that wants to capture Valjean all the time, he believes every person that had done bad will never be protected by God again. He didn’t believe any person that had done bad things can turn good again, so he didn’t believe in Valjean either, but at the first time Mr. Madeline free him, he is astonished and grateful, at that time he did not know Mr. Madeline is Valjean, but he is also moved by this mayor’s kindness. Later, when Enjolras and other revolutionary youth started a revolution, Javert sneaked into the army as a spy, and was found by Gavroche. Valjean saved him again. He is moved by what Valjean had done, and began to believe that people can turn good, God will bless you no matter what you’ve done. He has found what a good man Valjean is, but it is his job to capture Valjean, he cannot bear to capture such a kind man, so he chose to jump into a lake to let free of himself from that hateful world. He is the man that believes in justice, he has a particular view of justice, he is the holdout of justice.
The Thenardiers: They are a pair of funny couple, they have an inn, they get those customers with their belongings inside their inn, then they use all kinds of methods to stole glasses, money, fake eyeballs, hat and so on. They’ve got Cosette, but all the money Fantine gave them was used on their own daughter, Eponine, only a few, they buy food, and fed Cosette a little. They used Cosette badly, they made her sweep the floor, clean the windows, get water from the woods……They even made fool of themselves on the wedding ceremony of Cosette and Marius.
Eponine: She is the daughter of the Thenardiers. Maybe because she is ecated in school, she is much better than her parents, even she knew Marius doesn’t love her anymore, she still finds Cosette for Marius, she never wants to break the love between Marius and Cosette, she gave her last breath away in the arms of Marius, and she is satisfied with her life.
Marius: He is a revolutionary young, he does not want what his grandfather and his father have, he don’t want to be a ke, he wants to be with his friends, he fight with them, and he has his own lover, Cosette, his life was saved by Valjean, he and Cosette was the only two that was with Valjean when he marched to heaven.
Gavroche: He is a poor child that was in the revolution, he was killed by one of the enemies, which was bad to heart, how can he shoot a child, a poor child that was an orphan. Gavroche is a hero, it is he that picked Javert out from the army, it was he too that saved Valjean from the youths.
The Bishop: The Bishop is the only man that can take Valjean after he was on parole. He opened Valjean’s heart, he let Valjean look at the world at another sight, to see the good that the world is.
From this movie, I learned what is a hateful world, my world is a wonderful world, a world with no hatred, with only love and happiness, nobody in danger, no war, no fight, nothing terrible. But from those actors and actresses’ performance, the moving story they reflect from their performance, I finally learn there is another world, not everything is as smooth as my world, there is hatred in the poor people, and dislike in the rich. There was revolution, there were deaths, there were unkindness everywhere, there was few people like Valjean and Cosette, and in a world like that, everybody wants to live on, not only that, they might want to live a rich life, and more and more people like the Thenardiers, they stole, they rob from others. So with that, the world needs stern police officers, when the police noticed the people that stole things will always stole to live a rich life, so they never forgive anybody, they don’t believe in start in a new state and things like that.

G. 两篇英文电影的英文读后感
《人鬼情未了》
我认为《人鬼情未了》关键的拍出了真情,当然各种蒙太奇手法和时空的巧妙的转换为影片构造了一种美妙的氛围,蒙太奇的使用恰到好处,特别是影片中各种时空的切换,人和鬼所在的不同时空,这是影片处理的难点,也是重点部分。在电影中充分的体现出了好人进天堂,坏人下地狱的精神。或许这是所有善良的人的想法,劫匪和卡尔死后,都被拖进了地狱,这也给作恶的人敲响丧钟,唤起人们的爱心和善良。
I think "Ghost" make a real key, of course, a variety of montage techniques and time and space cleverly converted to video structure of a wonderful atmosphere, the use of montage right, especially the videos of all kinds of time and space switch, and the ghosts of a different time and space where it is difficult film processing is also the key part. In movies reflected a good man into heaven, the spirit of the bad guys go to hell. Perhaps this is all good people the idea of robbers and Carl's death, have been dragged into hell, which also sounded the death knell for those who do evil, to arouse people's love and kindness.
美国电影《阿甘正传》的英语观后感
When I first saw this movie I didn't appreciate it like I do now. Because I was so young that I didn’t get the main idea when I first saw it. Just recently I saw the movie again. What an amazing and moving story. That movie teaches you so much about life and the meaning of it. That life isn't as bad as most people feel. Forrest Gump, the innocent man can impact so many lives with his innocence. The meaning of the movie to me is that everyone needs to have a better outlook on life. That we need to appreciate more of the little things and not let the big things hold us back. Although life may throw us trials and tribulations like a box of chocolates, we just have to bite into it and get through it even if we don't like it. I just love this movie. And anyone who hasn't seen it or who thinks that don't like it I seriously suggest seeing it or seeing it again. It truly is amazing...
这个杀手不太冷
This film was absolutely amazing. I have spent hours re-watching various scenes and noticing all the perfection with which they are acted and directed. It's not the violence or action sequences that make this movie so great (although they are well done...), but rather moments like where Mathilda knocks on Leon's door. It would be so easy to just film the door opening, but instead we see light illuminating Natalie Portman's face, symbolizing something angelic. And the moment has so much more meaning.
I know a lot of people who have seen this film because they are action fans. I'm not. But I'm glad I finally found it, because it's a wonderful film in so many other ways.

Many people hold the opinion that American people care only money and themselves, they dispose no attention to others, even their relatives. The film Rain Man (雨人) described about how a self-centered businessman retrieved his family affection. Charlie Babbitt is frantically trying to straighten out his failing Los Angles business which involves expensive import cars. One day he receives word that his father, with whom he has had no contact for years, had died. At the reading of his bill, he learns that he has received a pittance, and that his father’s 3 million-dollar fortune has gone into a trust. Whom is the trust for? Charlie discovers with a shock that it goes to support an older brother he never knew he had. His brother Raymond is a “high-level” autistic, who has been institutionalized for years. Angry that he has been cut out of his share of the inheritance, Charlie takes Raymond out of the mental home and vows to bring him to live in Califomia, then they head out on a cross-country odyssey of discovery. Charlie at first does not quite seem to accept the dimensions of Raymond’s world and grows frustrated at what looks like almost willful stubbornness. Eventually, Charlie has learned how to pay attention, how to listen, and how to be at least a little patient some of the time. He gets in touch with things that are more important than selling cars. In the film, family affection beats money. The story was simple, but the meaning was much deeper. It reflected vividly the conflict between money and the affection, inspired people to consider money’s value again.

功夫熊猫 1
I still remember way back in 2005 when I first heard about Kung Fu Panda I thought it was a pathetic idea. My thoughts had to do with 2 things… the concept and using Jack Black. Both I thought were terrible ideas that seemed to me to lend themselves to yet another cookie cutter, annoying, cheap and witless animated film (non-pixar) that would just rely on fart jokes, burp jokes, fart jokes and basically any simple little thing it takes to amuse 10 year old kids (which is just about anything) without bother to put any quality story telling or themes or idea into it. Just have Jack Black talk in outrageous tones, flash some pretty colors and have Po (that’s the name of the Panda) fart.
Yes, I thought I could already see the entire movie playing itself out in my head just from hearing the concept alone. So off I went to see Kung Fu Panda the other day. Was I correct in my first impressions? Actually… no I wasn’t. It’s actually not a bad film at all.
“The most important element” in any film will vary according to its genre. For a film like Kung Fu Panda clearly the most important element it needed to pull off was comedy. If a film like this one doesn’t make you laugh… then there isn’t much left to fall back on. Thankfully the movie succeeds quite well on this level. I can’t recall any more than 1 hard belly laugh (usually a decent comedy needs much more than that), but it felt like it at least always had me smiling or giggling through the run time. Almost none of the joke were home runs… but then did all work. The end result was I found myself entertained almost all the way through.
Coming up with a good villain in a kids film is no easy task. The character has to be menacing, but at the same time you can’t give kids nightmarish visions and make them crap themselves. I mean come on… it’s Kung Fu Panda… you can’t exactly have Violator (from the Spawn comics) showing up can causing kids across the nation to spontaneously crap themselves in their theater seats… then requiring therapy for the next 3 years to make the nightmares go away! It is a fine and delicate balance… and the villain in Kung Fu Panda, Tai Lung, was PERFECT. He was certainly menacing… but at the same time easy enough for the kids to handle without needing pampers. I think the presence of such a villain really helped the film work.
Doing good action in an animated film is also no easy task. I mean, it’s easy enough to DO… just not so easy to do WELL. However, Kung Fu Panda and the folks at Dreamworks really did pull of some BEAUTIFUL animation with complex yet extremely smooth kung fu fighting that was a treat to watch. It was also a lot of fun seeing how each character had a totally different fighting style in keeping with which animal they were. I mean come on… how on earth do you animate a snake doing Kung Fu and have it look cool? Well… they found a way!
功夫熊猫2
Kung Fu Panda is an American animated comedy film released in 2008. After its release it is welcomed by most alts and children and receives very positive and favorable reviews. I think the film is trying to tell us that if you have a dream and hold on to it, you will be successful one day.
The movie is about a lazy, fat and clumsy panda called Po. He helps his goose father in his family noodle shop every day. And his father expects him to take over the shop and tell him the secret ingredient of making noodle soup. However, Po is fanatic of Chinese Kung Fu and is always dreaming to become a Kung Fu fighter.
Everyone is surprised to find the result but they have to accept the reality. Eventually Shifu takes sage advice from Oogway and begins to teach Po martial arts. Po is carefully prepared to fight. But is Tai Lung defeated in the end by the panda? I urge you to find out the result on your own.
In my opinion, the most impressive part of the movie is the sacred Dragon Scroll and the secret ingredient of making noodle soup. When Po is ready to open the sacred Dragon Scroll, which promises great power to its possessor, he finds nothing but blank. He was in despair and everyone is shocked and desperate. So Shifu has to order his students to lead the villagers to safety while he stays to delay Tai Lung for as long as he can. Then Po meets his father on the way back, and unexpectedly his father tells him the secret ingredient of the family's noodle soup: nothing. He explains that things become special when people believe they are. I think this is the theme of the movie. Once you hold a firm belief, you can get what you want.
On the whole, the movie is funny and entertaining. Its theme of “believe in yourself” is loved by the parents. And for alts there are some wonderful actions and sceneries. If you have not watched the Kung Fu Panda, I sincerely recommend you to watch it and enjoy the enthusiastic and funny Panda.
音乐之声1
Watching the DVD of "The Sound of Music" wasn't exactly a revelation -- after all, I was a teenager when the film came out, and saw it in a theater, lo those many years ago -- but it was a delight.
I hadn't seen it for many years, and it was a great treat to see it again via the excellent proction values of the THX digitally mastered DVD.
That long tracking shot over the Alps to Julie Andrews' wonderful, crystal-ringing voice set the pace for a delightful movie.
There are people who turn a cynical eye and ear to this film, which is too bad for them. Musicals have a limited audience in this age, I suppose, but for those who love music in any form, and who can stand some sweetness from time to time, this film is deeply enjoyable.
The music is almost completely great (there is one tune I just can't warm up to), the performances are charming, the Austrian locales are beautiful and the story is touching, involving love, personal drama and world drama. What else do you want?
"The Sound of Music" is a mostly true story, of the Von Trapp Family Singers. Austrian Captain von Trapp, wife Maria and his children had sung in the Salzburg Music Festival in 1936, then scooted out of Europe in 1938 to get away from Hitler and his evil ways. Eventually they opened a music school, then an inn, in Vermont.
Maria wrote a book, "The Story of the Trapp Family Singers," which became a German film, "Die Trapp Familie," in 1956. By 1959, the story of the von Trapps had become a successful Broadway musical, with a little help from Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. The movie version -- directed by Robert Wise and somewhat improved from the stage version, most agree -- was released in 1965.
It is the story of the lively novitiate nun, Maria (Andrews), who -- too flighty to concentrate on religious ties -- is sent to be governess to the von Trapp children. She soon thaws out the icy Captain von Trapp (played by Christopher Plummer) and he sings "Edelweiss" with his children, and before too long he's in love with the noviate and eventually they are wed.
Watching the DVD -- again, many years after the last time I'd seen the film -- I was continually thrilled by Andrew's great charm and beautiful voice, which rings as pure as the finest crystal. She is so delightful in the role that it is no wonder she has been the star she is for so long.
There are photographs of the real Maria, and interviews with some of the von Trapp children. It's amusing to hear them talk about the liberties the film took with their story.
"The Sound of Music" was the most popular movie ever made to that date, and held the box-office record for a long time. For good reason. It is a complete delight, and still highly recommended.
音乐之声2
THE SOUND OF MUSIC (1965) was one of the most popular films of the 1960s. Although a bit corny, it is a joyous musical odyssey suitable for the entire family. Today, too often what goes for musicals, see for example EVITA, is little more that a show with a single decent song. In THE SOUND OF MUSIC every song is tuneful and most are memorable and moving.
Some shows are meant to be seen in a movie theater on a large screen with an impressive sound system to match. THE SOUND OF MUSIC is one of them. Nevertheless, our family enjoyed it at home. We have a high quality home theater setup, but the full effect can only be experienced in a real theater. I have not seen the film that way in thirty years. This review is from the home viewing rather than my memory.
The movie is filled with songs, and there are even some simple dance numbers. When Liesl dances in the conservatory at night with Rolfe (Daniel Truhitte), she ends up giving him a single kiss. This sends him into total rapture. I can remember a time when I was a teenager like him and one kiss from a girl, especially a beautiful one, could evoke a response as strong as Rolfe's. Times change and teenagers are regretfully much more sexually sophisticated now. Still, the lone kiss in that scene remains powerful.
In a show that is so upbeat it has been criticized as being sappy, there is the tension of the looming war. The Captain's friend Max Detweiler (Richard Haydn) is apolitical and ignores the coming Anschluss. "What's going to happen is going to happen," he advises the Captain. "Just make sure it doesn't happen to you." Although this war reality is ever-present and although the film is based on a true story, the movie feels like a lovely and enring fairy tale.
This is a movie filled with exuberance, memorable songs, and great beauty. A joy to be savored and seen by each generation.
