My Crappy Film Review



Dear my lovely readers,




    So over the last few weeks, or maybe a month, or so I watched a few films, and this is how I feel about each one, and I will let you know if it in my view point would be worth watching, and the basic plot, however I will not tell you about what happens (too much), or give you any spoilers



Film Number one-Django Unchained



Staring Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Kerry Washington

Written by Quentin Tarantino

    Django Unchained starts off with slave owners transporting a bunch of slaves at night through the south (one of them being Django played by Jamie Foxx) when Dr. King Schultz (played by Christoph Waltz) a former dentist turned bounty hunter, frees Django after killing his owners, because Django knows where some people are in which Schultz is looking for a bounty. Schults tells Django he will give him his freedom is he helps him find the people he was after, DJango agrees later after they kill the people they were looking for (lots of people die in this film) Schultz asks Django what he will do now, and Django tells him try to find his wife, and buy her freedom. Schultz then says he will help him find his wife, Broomhilda, if Django will work with him over the winter in collecting bounties: he agrees and the plot of the film becomes them looking for Broomhilda to try, and get her freedom from her current slave owner.
     
     out of ten I would give this film a 7.9, and say it is worth watching. It is well written, has good action, the acting is pretty good, and worth your time.


Film Number Two-Argo



Staring, and Directed by Ben Affleck

    Argo is about Tony Mendez, played by Ben Affleck, plan to get a bunch of people caught up in Iran during the Iran hostage crisis by pretending to be a film crew from Canada that is making a film (a fake film) and the hostages are actors, and actress in the film, and well that's pretty much it. this film did win best picture of the year, so is it worth seeing?
    
     No, To be honest I was bored the whole time watching this film, like I just wanted it to end, out of ten I give it a five, and really it is only a 3, so in other words avoid this film!!!!


If you like to learn more about the Iran hostage crisis Google it!!!!




Film Number Three-Silver Linings Playbook



Staring Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro


     This film is about Pat Solitano Jr (played by Bradley Cooper) getting out of the mental hospital for bipolar disorder, and wanting to reunite with his ex wife, but is unable to do so, because she has a restraining order against after he caught her cheating on him, and he beat the living day lights out of the guy, Unablre to communicate with her he has no conntact with her, until he later meets Tiffany Maxwell (played by Jennifer Lawrence) who also has her own mental problems after the death of her husband. Who later in the film agrees to give letters to his ex wife if PAt agrees to enter into some kind of dance contest with her.

     Out of then I would give this a 9, the acting is great, the story line is great, and it shows how a person hard life can be sometimes for a person with bipolar disorder can be, and how a person that lost a loved one can go through hard times, and how people take advantage of them. Jennifer Lawrence's win for best actress was well deserved and this film should have been of of the two films I thought should have won film of the year, so I say go, and see it, or buy it when it comes out!!!!




Film Number Four- Les Misérables



Staring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried




     Before I tell you about this film you should know it is a musical, so if musicals are not your cup of tea than you probably should not watch this film, however if you don't watch this film you are missing a great film. The story of this film is about Jean Valjean (prisoner 24601) being released from prison after nineteen years for stealing bread, but is put on parole, but later breaks his parole, and decides to start a new life, but later meets a girl turns to prostitution to pay money to the evil innkeeper and his wife who look after her child, named Cosette. the girl dies, and Valjean agrees to find the child, and take care of her. Now a lot more happens in this film, but to be honest there is a lot to talk about, and I don't really want to give away the plot(s), because I feel it is worth watching!!!!

     out of ten this is a 9.5, the acting is great, the story lines are great, the singing is great, and the title of the film makes sense since well pretty much everyone is in some sort of miserable situation(s) one person is miserable because he is on the run, while having to take care of his step daughter, another is miserable, because he can't capture him, their is the misery of loving someone that loves someone else, the misery of living in a county were things are bad for the poor, but good for the rich, and takes place in France around the time of the June Rebellion. (Google it) everything is just f*cked up!!!!


So pretty much watch all these films except Argo, because that film is pure rubbish!!!!

Love,
your friend,
VPK
