Kung Fu Panda review

Kung Fu Panda (2008)Kung Fu Panda starts out with Po a fat panda , that works in a noodle shop. Dreaming to be a Warrior, then Master Wu chose him as the Dragon Warrior. When Master Wu passed away, and leaving Po's master to guard the Jade Palace. His master soon learns that Master Wu was right to choose him. Po learns Kung Fu by food. Po soons became the warrior and defeated the evil that though to become Dragon Warrior. This movie is very original and has detail parts, humor, and action scenes. The scene that takes place in China makes the scenary beautiful because of Chinese wonderful environment.
I started thinking that in Kung Fu Panda , it explains the start of Kung Fu. Those 6 warriors, master Wugua, and , and Po's master use the philosphy of Dao. I realized that when Po was at the pool of tears with Master and I saw a Yin and Yang symbol.
This motion picture film has great shots, humor , and great acting.
Tai Lung was defeated by Po with a special move he learned from a book. Master Wu said that ,"I cannot control when the peach starts growing, I cannot control the where it lands, when it is ripe. "
I liked the slow motion with tai long and Po. Tai Long was charging at po slowly and it created suspense and built a mood. I also liked how he imagined the scroll as a piece of bread. It gave him inspiration to get the scroll. I also enjoyed how tai long hit him numerous small hits while Po ended it with a big punch.
In the end Po used the Wuxi finger to defeat tai long. In the end his dream came true.
The secret to the Dragon scroll was nothing. That was why the scroll was blank.
That can relate to life as well because there is no secret to success. The secret is you. You control your future. As Master Wu said the future is a mystery.
I say that you control your future.
I liked the end credits because they had the chinese characters for all furius five's animal character. For example, in chinese they wrote monkey on top of the actor which was Jackie chan.
I hope this movie can bring out chinese culture in a humorus way.
The producers, writers, and filmakers must really understand Chinese history and culture because I saw that there were chinese firecrackers, chinese style homes. Those homes were what homes in ancient china looked simular to.

The Dark Knight movie review

The Dark Knight starring Heath Ledger and Christopher BaleThis movie is awsome, but gives you the chills sometimes. Especially if you watch it on IMAX because the sound of gun shots and the Joker. Heath Leadger played the Joker very Well. The Joker sometimes can be scary like in the begining when he shot a lot of his men and the bankers. He then tried to make a deal with the mob , but the gang leader says," Whoever can get the Joker dead gets 5 grand." The Joker fakes his death and come back to the gang leader and stick a knife in his mouth. He said, " Do you know why I have so many scars? It's because my father was a drinker and one day he would come back home drunk and my mother would protect herself with a knife. Then my father takes the knife to me, the Joker, and sticks it up to my mouth and says why are you so nervous? Smile and points the knife up in his mouth and then said, "you will always smile now." These are some of the things that make this movie creepy and scary. There is another part where the Joker says to the mob,"I will make this pencil disappear. He lets a mob leader come up and slams his head on the table. It disappeared because he can't see it any more." Some parts are also too bloody like when Harvey Dent was rescued , but half his face is on fire. Half his face got the skin burned off and you could see his bones and jaws and muscele. That was one of many that says this movie should be rated R. The Joker kills many People just to see the Batman's real identity. In a Press Conference, Harvey Dent, the Attorney says well I am the Batman. Bruce Wayne just stands there while a fake Batman gets arrested. These were one of the things that made Bruce's friend Rachael angry. There is romance, action, and crude comedy. The next thing is how the director, Chris Nolan, made the Batman's gadgets look so high tech even though only the military now a days can get that technology. I realized it really cool when he could the track the Joker with Mr. Fox's sonor idea. It was confuing in the end when the Batman said to Commissioner Gordon, "A person dies a hero or lives long enough to see himself a villian. I am a Villian. Get the police, dogs and SWAT team after me." It was confusing because he didn't do anything wrong. He rescued Commissoner Goron's son from the evil Harvey Dent. Harvey was about to kill Commissoner Gordon's son , but the batman knocked Harvey down the building and rescued Gordon's son. Even the commissioner's son said, " But he didn't do anything wrong." Chris Nolan should make the ending better and clearer. The other creepy part was how the Police unhandcuffed the Joker and let the Batman deal with him. The Batman went crazy and slammed the Joker's face into the wall, threw him through the room. That was crazy, but necessary. That was one of the parts where it had a bloody part. The other creepy part was when the Batman flips over the truck the Joker was in, but the Joker survived. The Batman fell and tripped on a string the Joker set up. I thought, " The Joker is like a cat, it has nine lives."

Iron Man review

Iron ManAs a critic, I need to judge movies to see if it's worth for both adults, children, and adolance. This movie can only be for children and teens because to adults this movie exaggerated the technology too much and only the military can afford all this technology. This also exaggerated how the military atytacked an unidentified object without knowledge. Then there was when Stark went to a press conference and Stark gave the identity away which might lead to poperaziis in real life. The pros of this movie is that it is fit for the whole family, not too violent, and fit for kids. This movie also shows impressive technology on how they can build in a cave. It shows powerful energy to fuel Iron Man and the heart and the body. It also shows a generator that can power the entire country built by Stark industries. It also shows what terrorists like Usmama Bin Ladin what they can and can't do in the cave. It shows that people in the United States can also illegally sell weapons to terrorist. It also can get Children's imagination going on inside their brain to see what if the world today had that power, imagine the energy , and no fossil fuel nessecary. So the Pros and Cons are even and people use this movie to relax and enjoy with their popcorn.
