title : Matrix Directed by: brohers Wachowski Country: EEUU Year : 1999 Gender : science fiction Running time: 136m
I could say that is the example of allegory the Cave of Platon led to science fiction movies. This story of Plato, is about two worlds. One is the world that we, ignorant,know. This one be a lie because there are another world more pure and real, which you can only enter through knowledge and pain. In the movie happens quite the same,but it disguised in a world where machines dominate us.
I think that cinema is one of the most important things in our life. I really love to watch a film sitting on the sofa, drinking something and with good company, but always if it is a good film. A few of my favourite films are The lord of the rings, Sin City, Truman's Show ,all of Larry clark and Kubrick, azul oscuro casi negro,saw or the mision, this best one I think. I've watched it a lot of times, and everytime I've enjoyed it more. In fact, I really love cinema and a lot of kinds. And I think that without it, our life would be very bored and without that we would lose a lot of brilliant moments to enjoy =)

Billy Eliot is a British film based on a novel written by AJ Cronin, The Stars Look Down.. Billy Elliot lives with his family in the North of England. He's eleven-year-old and had recently lost his mother. His father and older brother, only have on the head end the mining strike of 1984. But Billy's life takes a change when in the gym where he learns boxing saw some girls of her same age that are learning ballet. Decides to change his boxing gloves for ones ballet shoes.With the help of Ms. Wilkinson will be introduced in that world, faced opposition from her family.Anyway finally Billy triumphs, and become a big ballet dancer.
It is clear that the main theme of the film is the dance, but there are also values which are of secondary importance. One of these values is the mentality of the era, as it's not seen a guy who dancing ballet.
Super Size Me is a documentary of 2004, written, produced, directed and starring by Morgan Spurlock, one independent american filmmaker.The intention is follow a diet of only McDonald's articles for 30 days.
Spurlock has the help of three doctors (one cardiologist, a gastroenterologist and a general doctor), and a nutritionist and a personal trainer too. The challenge begins when the protagonist has very good health, but finally has to leave this experiment because his health begins to deteriorate. He has a stomachache almost every day, gets tired easily and many of his vital organs begin to get sick.
I think that is a very didactic documentary and distracted. This movie documentary talks about a very real and current topic the obesity, wich can be seen everywhere.But not only talks about McDonald's too of all kinds of fast food. I recognize that I eat fast food, but after seeing this documentary , some time ago, I don't eat many burgers as befor.

Original title : ken park Year: 2002 Time : 96m Directors : Larry Clark y Ed Lachman. Gender : independent
In one zone of california four friends,three boys and one girl which are known since childhood ,all of middle class, they live together their friendship while they experiment with their sexuality but everyone of one diferent form. The girl, Peaches, lives only with her father, he's extremely religious. Then Tate, he lives with his grandfathers and always is masturbating while strangles his neck.Claude is a shy skaterboy who suffers sexual assault of his father. And for finally Shawn is a guy who doesn't know if prefers his girlfriend or the mother of this for have sex.
This movie has explicit scenes of sex and there are also drugs, something very typical in Larry Clark,a director very controversial everytime that he's located behind a camera. More or less all his films, kids, bully or wassup rockers have the same argument.
The only criticism that I have about the film is that everything is extremely unrealistic, even the Tate's dog wich only has three legs.
Original title : Jeux d'enfants Year: 2003 Time : 93m Director : Yann Samuell Gender : Romantic Drama
Shopie and Julien are two children with problems, but one day they meet and together began one game, ¿capable or incapable? But early they grow and they see that life can not always be a game with trials and challenges. Shopie and Julien in their lives laugh together, they skip the rules with her games but also hurt each other except to acknowledge that they are in love.
It doesn't the typical love film , I suppose that because it is french and the course of the argument goes to a different rhythm and have a different way to talk about love, obsession and the pain that two persons can do, when one of the couple breaks the heart to other of the couple.
I love this movie because it's a lot of romantic but without being cloying and because is explained like story. Is a sympathetic and fun story even cruel at the same time, can remind Amelie and this can be a negative point but i hope that if you see this film , this enjoy you.

I recommen this movie because now that I have studied in Latin the true gladiator's lives in Rome, I can see that the film it's quite realistic. I choose this movie because everytime that I see it ,I cry of emotion,becouse is cruel but beautiful too, especially the end of this. And why not ?... the protagonist,Russell Crowe, is very atractive ;)

This is the last song og Glafiator, I think that is very emotive
Director: David Slade. Country: USA. Year: 2005. time: 103 min. Genre: Thriller psychological.
Hard Candy , is a film about a teenager, Harley, she is very clever and since three weeks ago she is chatting with a men in internet,Jeff, he's a photographer and has thirty years old. And now it's time to meets Jeff in a caffe. All begins when Hayley do a cocktel with vodka and puts a drug in the glass. A few hours after he wakes up, tied to a table,when Hayley confesses that he knows that he's a paedophile.
I think that the interpretation of the Ellen Page (Hayley) it's amazing, and it's nice too know some curiosities about this movie like, that the film was done in twenty days more or less and with very low budget. And also I think that is very important thing do any film like this, and treat real subjects like paedophilia and have a real vision of issues of the people who abduct girls,for after rapes she.

The three friends are lovers of cinema and they spend their time speaking about life, while they know each other with erotic'n'mind games related with the cinema without censor the images with nudes or sex.
I like so much to see the fact grow the brothers having no parental care and money whenever they need. A curious sentence from the movie is that always prefer to parents of others but your grandparents are allwals the best, this argument is in the first night that theo lives in the twin's house when the parents of this still stay, before their travel.
