Time for my own review of the movie that I watched for this month. Well, am just focusing on the scene that I love rather than the synopsis of the movie itself.
Movie #1 : The Impossible
The trailer of this movie being previewed last year while am watching Breaking Dawn. This movie took Tsunami incident in 2004 as it prop and after done a few reading, it was based on the true story of the mother called Maria. This movie touch my feeling (well, some of part I need tissue). Those people that experience lost of family member understand how does Maria feel. She still belief that her family still alive unless she found their dead body. She’s not giving up her hope. Same goes to her husband and kids.
Best moment for me:
1. When she asked her son the condition of her legs.
2. Despite being worried about herself and her family whereabouts, she keep insist & encourage her boy to assist whatever he can and reach out to other victim.
3. Am so happy when knowing that her husband & other kids still alive (its only the viewer know it, not Maria).
4. Missing people name on the board. Although this is normal practice but this scene for sure touched people heart. Sometimes, if we just a passerby, we still can relate to the feeling of the people who went to the board in hope they will found what they’re searching for.
Overall, this is perfect movie. Just a simple story but full of lesson can be learnt from here.
Movie #2: Mama
Am happened to watch this movie after reading the review from free morning “The Sun” newspaper. Then, I searched for trailers and best thing, 2 days after that, my friends asked me to join them for midnight movie and the movie title was “mama”. Title sound so loving and caring but it is can be considered as horror movie.
Why I love this movie?
1. Sometimes when in the desperate situation, people will do something that out of their norm. That happen in the beginning of the movie. Financial crisis lead the man to kill his business partner & his wife. And he also planned to kill his kids and attempting suicide after that which end up he being killed by unknown entity.
2. Annabel spirit of taking care of the girls(Victoria & Lilly) after something happen to his boyfriend. Well, love all her attempt to being close to the girl especially she knews the existence of “Mama” in the girl life. Hooray for her when Victoria finally open up to her and she still strugling for Lily.
3. Even the ghost also get jealous with human love. Annabel need to fight with “Mama” and safe the girl from “Mama” that suddenly become more dangerous when Lily finally can accept Annabel (although it is not as close as Victoria)
4. I always hate when I was asked to choose between 2 option which both of the option was important for me. This happened to Victoria and Lily. They need to choose between Annabela (the real human Mama) and Ghost Mama. This is sad moment for me especially when Lily decide she wants to be with Mama (which I also think she will opt for her “Mama” since she and Victoria being live few years under “Mama” custody and it took her long time to breakthrough with Annabel). Victoria opt for Annabel.
Movie #3 : People Like Us
I just bought the CD for this movie. The synopsis look good, so am decided to watch it. And it is based of the true story of the writer itself, Alex Kurtzman
What I like about this story?
1. Can you imagine, you live until 30+ yrs old and only knew that you’re had a sibling after your father death? Will you accept the fact. Sam is so cool handling this issue. Although he angry with his father and sympathy for her mother that being betrayed by her husband, he still want to be part of his new-found sister life (he’s not revealing his relationship to them in the beginning).
2. Hate the mother. She pretend she’s okay in front of her son and kept the big secret from him. I understand that she wants to save her family, but the fact that she asked her husband to choose between his legal family and other family really make me sick. Would there be any other method instead of separating the child from father’s love.
3. Love the ending. Although it is not directly shown the sister accepted her new found brother, but at least she still accept him in her life. The old video recording reunited them. Without their knowledge, their father actually introduced them since their childhood time and they already playing with each other since childhood. And this bring us in the earlier scene when Sam told that the only memory that he had with his father was his father brought him for walked and played every sunday.
