Eagle Eye



This past weekend i watched the film Eagle Eye. Eagle Eye is about a anonymous caller that selects two people to preform tasks out of fear. Throught out the movie this caller preforms seemingly imposible stunts. For example it breaks down power lines to kill a man running away from a van. It seems that this anonymous caller has total control of Jerry and Rachel's, the main characters, surroundings. During the movie i noticed certain camera angles and movements that helped me further understand the film. Just simple camera tatics such as high and low angles to show how much power a certain character posseses. Later on in the film i discovered that this caller was actually a corrupt machine i was greatly disappointed. Although i enjoyed how the director kept the viewer from fully comprehending the plot, by keeping this caller anonymous, i thought it was stupid how in the end that there wasn't a terrorist orginization behind this but yet a corrupt machine. This plot was creative but yet stupid i would rate this movie a 4 out of 10.

chiuaua

Beverly hills chiuaua was an amazing movie. I was constantly falling out of my seat laughing in the theater. This movie was based on the perspective of a spoiled chiuaua, Chloe, from beverly hills that ends up in the wrong part of town. Chloe gets captured and then is set up to enter a dog fight. However, Papi rescues her and tries to escort her to safety. This rescue opperation is a difficult task completing many tasks on their way to THE LAND OF CHIUAUAS! When they get there the chiuauas help out with this operation and also help with Chloe's character development. At the start Chloe would be considered nothing but a spoiled dog, but by the end of the film Chloe is able to look after herself because she found her bark. This movie not only touched me literally and figuartively but emotionally as well. If you ever get the chance to view this film i would highly suggest you do so.
