初恋50 First Dates

What would it feel if I can wake up everyday forgetting what happened for the last whole year?

Lucy in the movie “50 First Dates” told me this feeling. Every morning when she woke up, she only rememberred the Sunday of last year which was her father’s birthday, also the date she had the car accident which made her only keep memory before Sunday, so she always felt happy living the same habit as what she did on Sunday a year ago with the kind set-up by her father and brother. After meeting Henry, she could only remember who he was on the same day. But after one night, he became a stranger to her. She couldn’t even recognize he was the one she used to date and love everyday. Henry tried his best to give her a new different meeting every day so as to win her smile and regain their “First Date”. Henry made her tapes every morning to help her remember what happened the day before and the last whole year. Lucy thus felt grateful with all she had when she woke up everyday. On the same day, she always had the same deep gratitude to face Henry with her sweet smile. What a beautiful feeling it is to always feel thanksgiving and to always

appreciate each other’s effort. A touching story between a memory lost woman and a devoted man taught all of us, normal people, the essence of love. When two people can thank each other for their devotion everyday like what they did for each other on first date, love can forever be refreshed and energetic. On Lucy’s side, people with memory will ask for more than yesterday and become critical of their partners day by day, while people without memory will feel grateful for their life and the people around them everyday.

In the movie, when one day Lucy decided to break up with Henry to let him rebuild his life by burning all their diaries and tapes, I cried for Henry’s broken heart. For her, it was just one day feeling. For him, it was long-term affection and connection. It was easier for her than him to give up their love. On Henry’s side, people with memory will always remember the past happiness and

treasure it for the rest of their life, while people without memory will easily give up at the end of the same day.

What a ruthless feeling it is to end a relationship just after one minute thought. People with fragile mind would easily ruin a long-term relationship no matter what reason they have. The torture between Lucy and Henry tells us the fatal factor to do harm to intimacy between a couple is their fragile mind of

balancing emotion and reason. Thus most of couple lose their trust for each other after experiencing this weakly testing broke-up.

飓风Taken

What is the right relationship between the father and the daughter? There is no certain answer. But the love of Brain's to his daughter must be one of the best ones.

His daughter, a young pretty 17-year-old girl was kidnapped during a tour in Paris. Brain got the news and hurried to France to take his daughter. He found that the gangsters that kidnapped his daughter were connected with an old friend which made him exetreme angry. He finally found the place where was holding an auction selling young virgins and broke in successfully taking his daughter away.

No matter how hard and stressful the situation was, and how dangerous things he faced, he never went back just because of the greatest love of a simple father. In the movie, we are all moved not only his actions of kindness, but also his insistance and the greatest of all- a father's love.

魔术师THE ILLUSIONIST FACTS

When word of the famed Eisenheim's (Ed Norton) illusions reaches Crown Prince Leopold (Rufus Sewell), the ruler attends one of the magician's shows in order to debunk the performance. But when the prince's intended, Sophie von Teschen (Jessica Biel), assists the magician onstage, Eisenheim and Sophie recognize each other from their childhoods, and pretty soon they're totally hot for each other. As the clandestine romance continues, the prince's best cop (Paul Giamatti) is charged with exposing Eisenheim, even while the magician gains a devoted and vocal public following. Before long, Sophie turns up dead, and the logical suspect is Eisenheim himself.

一线声机"Cellular" has the setup for a solid straight-ahead thriller: A kidnap victim who does not know where she is being held phones a total stranger who must then stay connected on his cell phone to find her before she is killed. Joel Schumacher scored earlier with a similarly phone-themed Larry Cohen story, "Phone Booth." As executed by tone-deaf director David R. Ellis, however, "Cellular" becomes an unintentionally hilarious cousin to Brian de Palma's "Raising Cain" and "Snake Eyes."

Ellis seems to have unwittingly spliced together two different films with

mismatched tones: Kim Basinger as the kidnapee and Jason Statham as the kidnapper occupy the deadly-serious, straight-to-video thriller half, while Chris Evans as the rescuer and William H. Macy as a police officer seem to be in a "Saturday Night Live"-alum action comedy. Nowhere else is the disjointedness in tone more apparent than when Basinger and Evans's performances are placed side-by-side during their conversations: The scenes keep cutting between an overwrought Basinger wringing out every drop of melodrama, while a blissfully inept Evans seems to be channeling a cross between Chris Kattan/Jimmy Fallon and Ben Affleck/Keanu Reeves.

Meanwhile, Ellis pulls out tricks intended to generate thrills and surprises. He throws in out-of-nowhere "shocks," a la "Final Destination"; he throws in

flashbacks; he throws in a gun-blazing Macy in Jerry Bruckheimer action-hero slo-mo; and yet, Ellis has no handle on staging any of them competently. Case in point: "Cellular" is the proud owner of one of the most ineptly scored chase sequences ever, as if Ellis simply heard a snippet of the song's lyrics ("...where you gonna run to?") literally and paid no attention to the inappropriateness of the accompanying music (which just bop, bop, bops along). (The song is even reprised during the closing credits, which itself is misbegotten in conception.)

And yet, for all of its failures as art, "Cellular" is always entertaining for those very same faults

My feelings of the movie 2012

If tomorrow is the end of the world, what would you like to do and whom would you like to be along with? I think most of us will choose to stay with our family and our best lovers. So did the hero in the movie. 2012 is a disaster movie, and from the movie,we can truly notice the terrible of the disaster and the death is so close. Most of the people

become puny when we are confronting the unexpected disasters, even the superman in the business or political world. In this movie , I can truly see the weakness of people, and I think maybe it’s also my weakness----being afraid of death, selfishness and cowardice.

But I am really moved by the hero’s strong will when the danger was coming. Although he divorced from Kate, Kate and their children were still the most important for him. Jackson is clinging and idealist, he thinks he can control the situations. Because of his idealism, when other of them were afraid, he was the one to energize his family to be brave and never give up. There was no doubt that Jackson was the spiritual force among them. From Jackson, I know that the disaster can destroy everything, but the will can destroy the disaster! There is an old saying in China is people living in one breath, I think that is it.

Then I was moved by the great president. If Jackson is the spiritual force to save us from death, the president must be the spiritual force to tell you that death is not as awful as you thought. He had had a chance to

be alive, but he gave it up and chose to stay behind. In China, there is a famous historian called Sima Qian, he said that though death befalls all men alike, it may be weightier than Mount Taishan or lighter than a

feather. I think the president is an epitome of many people who put aside personal affairs when they are facing the righteous cause. But it is this epitome gives us more energies and inspires us forever.

And I really feel regretful and sad to the old sailor, Will. He loves his son and he was touched when he heard his granddaughter called him grandpa. But when he realized that he loved them more than others, it was too late. Sometimes we like to be difficult with persons we love, we just don’t want to submit and we want to be submitted. But how short life is! It will not give us all the chances to be self-willed, so if we can be not stubborn, we can get more happy time with our lovers.

At last, I think everyone is equal as parents. Kate prefers to give up her own life rather than give up her kids’. So does Yuri. It’s no doubt that he is selfish and offish, but as a father, he is as great as other ordinary fathers. He can still give up his life for his sons.After I became a girl’s mother, I think I can feel that feeling.

This film touches my heart because of the emotions in it. We’re lucky that we are alive and all the people we care are still here.So I think if we live each day as if it was our last, we will cherish more and be more gentle.
