The Terminal

Catherine Zeta-Jones 03:40:00
America the land of immigrants! Over the last couple of hundreds of years, there were millions of those who wanted to fulfill their own American dream. They came on ships, on planes, willingly with high hopes for the new life or having no other choice in the impoverished homelands where potatoes were scarce. Some of them were forced to name another country their...

American Animals

crime 09:47:00
College life seems to be insignificant. You are tight with money, you have years to develop your professional career, and you occupy your parents' flats, garages, and dorms. What you're left with is an idea. In 2004 from a dormitory room Marck Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes launched Facebook, which changed the entire world of social network. In...

The Mask

animals 02:34:00
Sometimes we wish we were smarter, more charismatic, more assertive or brave. We know we are good enough to get this promotion, this man/woman, this level of success. But we are who we are and drugs, caffeine, or alcohol rarely change the status quo. We don't have the guts to make our dreams come true. If only there was a magic item which...

Pirates of the Caribbean

action 09:54:00
There were times when England had its colonies all over the world, its ports were on every continent, its fleet was storming the sees and oceans shipping goods, people, and precious metals. Of course, not everybody in this huge water enterprise could remain on the side of good. There were those who wanted to rob, steal, rape, and plunder: the evil tricksters of...

The Matrix

action 05:08:00
We waged various wars. Some of them started because of a woman, some began due to religious conflicts, others sprang out of individual ambition to conquer and dominate. Recently, we have witnessed the war of terror with few open conflicts but many individual cases of bomb explosions, hijacked planes, and trucks running into innocent trespassers of the wrong place and the wrong time....

Catch Me If You Can

career 03:24:00
We still value professions of prestige. There is nothing more rewarding for the parents to boast in front of their friends that their children are doctors, lawyers, or pilots. Uniform makes not only women's heads turn around. It opens many doors, makes business deals easier, enables an average man to be raised to the level of heroes and gods. No wonder that getting...

Curly Sue

children 03:23:00
The world has always been constructed in the way that some have and others have not. Whether we are talking about health care, insurance, cars, houses, and food, there are some who have everything in abundance, and others dream of having just the scraps from the table. A few billionaires' income could support all of us, yet some choose to have more yachts,...

Try Google search and you will find countless cases of daughters fed up with their mothers. The latter tend to criticise everything: from clothes, through interests, friends, to boyfriends. They influence you, choose your clothes when you are a little girl, comment on your menstruation, warn you against the evil of the world: men. They have been through it all and why shouldn't...

Lucy

action 01:19:00
We use about 10 percent of our brains. Some of us possibly limited their lives to some 7,5 (amoeba state: consumption, the resignation of deeper thoughts) and some upgraded to proud 12 or 13, having accomplished more than the average citizen of our planet (you know these: Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, possibly Meryl Streep). You choose your education and profession according to the...

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Elijah Wood 10:17:00
It seems to be planned by the higher forces. You meet. You fall in love. Within months, you are so deeply under each other's skin that you start to get on each other nerves. You argue. You break up. You want to forget about each other and move on. The pain of moving on reminds you how happy you were when you were...

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
