Three Days in Kamakura (2012)
It makes me think about family
This short film has a strong message. It makes me think about family. It is a story about a married couple, Keiko and David. At the beginning of the story, I thought Keiko is a mysterious person because she looks so unhappy, not energetic and avoids her husband. However, we can understand why she behaves so visually, for example, their facial expressions and their behavior. There is not much dialogue but their facial expressions and outside scenery tells us a lot. I like the acting, including child actors, and I also like the construction of scenes. This movie stars on rainy day scene and the couple relationship is not good. As their relationship recovers, scene get bright in color. I especially like the scene at the sea and the town street of Kamakura. They show the changes of Keiko and David's mind very well.
Cinderella (2015)
beautiful scenes
This movie is amazing! I love this. I was very moved by Cinderella's beautiful heart. Many times I was moved to tears. I was most surprised scene is transforming. Some animals for example rats, lizards, are transformed into horses and butler, and pumpkin changes into a beautiful carriage by Fairy Godmother. Cinderella changes into more beautiful lady wearing blue dress and glass shoes. This scene is fantastic. I can't forget this beautiful scene. I think most of all people had known the Cinderella's story, but I recommend all people to watch this movie. Cinderella has a sincere heart. In contrast, her sisters are mean. They are villains but I think these two characters are attractive. There are many different characters and animals in this movie and CG technique makes them more beautiful. It is beautiful and exciting movie.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)
excellent
This is one of my favorite film. In this film, the important item is Wonka Bar. It is very famous chocolate and all over the world, only five Wonka Bars are special. There are golden invitation tickets for Willy Wonka's chocolate factory in the each five chocolate packages. Not only in the film, but also many stores sell Wonka Bar in reality. This film is loved all over the world because of its humor character and story. Johnny Depp acted Willy Wonka, who is little strange, and eccentric character. I like his acting very much. I also like Oompa Loompa. They are very small and not human. They sing many strange songs in this film, and I can't forget their songs. They are very strange but I like them. In this film, there are many sweets and the factory looks very colorful. I can enjoy not only its story but also its visual and music.
Resident Evil (2002)
wonderful action scene
It is a science fiction horror film and based on the video game. I have never played this game so I had only known there are many zombies and people fight them. After watching this movie, I surprised that characters are very attractive. This story is not only scary but also describe of human involvement. Alice, who is a main character of this film has no memories when she awakes. As the story goes on, gradually she regains own memories. I think these flashback scenes are great. We can realize many things at the same time she remembers her memory. It is very exciting to revere many secrets such as who is she and what she wanted to do before she lost her memories. There are many zombies and cruel scenes so this film is scary for me. However, I enjoyed action scene of Alice and her company very much.
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
Fantastic
It is very exciting movie. I like Disneyland and I also like an attraction of Pirates of the Caribbean but I had never seen this movie. After watching this, I regret that I didn't watch such a fantastic movie. Captain Jack Sparrow is very cool. I was surprised that the performance of Johnny Depp. I love Charlie who is a character of Charlie and Chocolate Factory and also acted by Johnny Depp. Both characters are acted by him and Charlie and Jack are quite different character, so I think it is difficult to understand that these character are acted by same actor. Captain Jack Sparrow is very unique and attractive character. These are many action scenes so full of exciting and the BGM is also wonderful. Music, actor, plot are all fantastic. I want to watch the sequel.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
fantastic
This is the sequel to The Terminator. This movie's story is about after 10 years since the first cyborg tried to kill Sarah. It is full of action scene and thrilling. I attracted this story from the opening to the end. It is really powerful movie. The personality of character is also great and the camera work gives me if I being there. Moreover, the skill of CG and the background music provides speedy rhythm and reality. In this movie, the terminator, which was a killer in former movie saves John. This story is exciting and moving. I think every people will enjoy this movie by great casts, plot and music. I want to watch it once again.
Zatôichi (2003)
entertainment
It is fantastic movie. I surprised that actors plays "Batto-Jutsu" which uses Japanese swords and battles with enemy. It is Japanese traditional act, but I had never seen such a beautiful and cool act. It is action and a period film. However, it is little grotesque because there are bloody scene in it, so I was little scary. The director is Takeshi Kitano. This movie is full of entertainment and some scene like musical. Actors dance tap dance with wearing "Geta" which is Japanese traditional shoes. It was amazing. I like that musical scene. Very rhythmical and powerful scene will make people enjoyable. I recommend to watch it not only Japanese people but also foreigner. I think this movie holds Japanese traditions and new entertainment.
The Terminator (1984)
wonderful
This movie is an American science fiction and action film. It made Arnold Schwarzenegger famous movie star. The terminator is a cyborg which assassin programmed to kill Sarah Connor who is John's mother. I was scared that this cyborg comes from future to kill her, and it will chaise her till achieve this mission. There are many thrilling action scenes. Arnold Schwarzenegger plays this cyborg. There are many action scenes so we can enjoy watching with bated breath. In addition to that, I recommend you to listen to the soundtrack. I think most people know the famous soundtrack of this movie. This movie's music is exiting so it attracted everyone's attention. I want you to enjoy not only action but also music. There are sequels to this movie so I'd like to watch all of this series.
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)
excellent
This movie is very famous and loved by people all over the world. This story is very moving and fantastic. A boy Elliot and E.T. who comes from planet shares a strong bond and they overcome many hardships. I respect Elliot and E.T.'s friendship. One of the most famous scenes is E.T. pointing his glowing finger to Elliot's forehead. There are many wonderful scenes and especially I like flying scene by bicycle. Elliot and his friends fly in the night sky. It is beautiful and memorable scene for me. Moreover, I also like this background music. As the story goes on, the music gets magnificent especially the climax scene so I was impressed. You can enjoy the friendship story, great visual, and music. This movie produced and directed by Steven Spielberg and it was released in the United States on 1982. It was enjoyed through many generations. My mother also like it.
Alien (1979)
beautiful planet
It is science fiction but very realistic movie. I was surprised that the scene of planet is beautiful and horrifying. I can't believe this movie was made in thirty-six years ago. The technique of CG is amazing. Some monstrous creatures are appear in this movie. Their appearances are so terrible that I shocked by them. One of the impressive scene is an egg with crack on it and light leaks from it. This scene is beautiful and exiting. Throughout the movie, it is scary to watch for me. However, I like its beautiful planet scene. Moreover, the dark tone of the color matches a sunless atmosphere of this movie. It received an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects, Saturn Awards for Best Science Fiction Film, Best Direction, and Best Supporting Actress for Cartwright, and a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation. Many people support this movie, so it is worth watching.
Bara prata lite (1997)
This is a mysterious movie
This movie is about an old man whose age is about sixty. He is neglected by everyone but he wants to talk with people so he always goes to his previous ex-workplace. He tries to talk with a girl who sits on the next seat to him on the bus. She ignores him so I feel sympathy for him. However, he is considered unpleasant by other people so not only this girl but workers ignore him. He is loneliness at home. It is unclear if he is married but now he is lonely. At first I felt sorry for the man but at once I noticed he is a little strange. At the beginning, the atmosphere of this movie gets disquieting. It seems to show his usual life. However his dangerous personality comes to light. This is a mysterious movie.
The Breakfast Club (1985)
high school movie
This is a high school movie. Five students receive supplementary tution on Saturday. They don't understand why they got a summons. The reasons are all different and gradually clarify. Their problems are not unrelated to our society. All five protagonists face one antagonist. The way they overcome is one main point in this movie. Other important person is their teacher. He gather five students to supplementary tution. He don't tell them why they must take this tution. He only says "Write a composition about What is onself?". He is also a mystery person and at first, his purpose is unclear. Almost all matters are hard to understand its opening, so you can enjoy watching this movie to the very end. All students and teacher display their originality in the one lecture room. It is really worth seeing what occurs in this space and how they spend this time.
Porcelain Unicorn (2010)
A unicorn plays an important part
A unicorn plays an important part in this movie. The opening of this story seems cruel and sad. However, a toy unicorn connects two people and in the end, this story moves and impresses us deeply. This movie is well constructed because the period of time covered in this story is not short. This is a short movie, but it contains a story spanning several decades. We can realize the characters bear many hardships and they have tender hearts. The characters are dragged into a war so it seems sad story but I think it is very beautiful and heart-warming story. It shows span well so I feel it is large-scale movie. And I didn't lose interest in spite of the time. I recommend you to watch this wonderful movie. It will move your heart.
Whacked (1998)
Unexpected ending
I couldn't foresee what will happen next at the beginning of this movie. It looks only his daily work but little by little the story gets darker. I think it shows a part of darkness of society. Many working adults feel dissatisfaction with modern society. This man has a warped mind, so his action is not normal. However, it is very likely to occur in the real world, so we are frightened. This is a silent film, so we can imagine what people in this movie think or wants to do. It is very interesting to think about this story but I think it is difficult to guess the ending of this movie right. Good camera-work and acting add mysteries to a scenario. It come to an unexpected ending.
