The Visitor



This was a great movie that everyone should see it on DVD. This movie was trying to portray that it only takes one to change your life. Director Tom McCarthy intention were to show that passion isn’t lost forever the right person just needs to come and awaken it. This film was successful as a movie. Not many people can relate with this storyline which makes it so unique. The acting was strong and true. This movie wasn’t made for entertainment; it is a drama filled film. Richard Jenkins approached his role with great sensitivity as Walter and he truly makes this a subtle and gentle film. I like this movie because Walter rekindled his strong passion and he showed me that passion is never lost, but it just needs a little help being found. I would recommend this film to others because this film is richly rewarding.

Precious


This movie was one of the best movies I have seen this year. It portrays Emotional abuse is the worst kind of abuse because it’s the hardest to heal from. DirectorLee Daniels does a great job in showing that emotional abuse can push people away from loved ones. This film was quite successful as a movie. The storyline was easy to follow and most people can relate to it. Also I thought the acting was great. Lee Daniels does a great job of using an assorted cast extending from pop stars and television personalities alongside trained and untrained actors and making it work. I really liked this movie because watching the protagonist Precious overcome extreme hardship and make a better life for her and children shows that obstacles can be conquered through perseverance. I would definitely recommend this film to others.
