Children of Men

Children of Men was about what would happen in the world if women stopped being fertile and weren't able to reproduce. The main plot of the movie is that there is a girl who actually got pregnant and this guy has to safely escort her to a safe heaven type place. There are people hunting them down and trying to keep the women for their own use, so the man goes through some crazy and intense situations just to save this girl. From a Shot perspective this movie was perfect. It had many different shots throughout and was a good example of different shot techniques. Some examples of these were the Panning Dolly shot, The Zoom, Low and High angle shots, and some POV. This was very beneficial for making the movie what it was because for people that don't know too much about camera angles or what shots they like to use for movies this is good for them to understand the different ones to choose from. My favorite out of all was the use of the Zoom. It just makes me feel as if I am the one who is actually wanting to take a closer look into the movie itself. Not only did the Angles and Shots stick out but some nice lighting was portrayed as well. We got to see some Key light, Fill light and even some Back light throughout the movie. I Highly suggest this movie to anyone who is interested in making a movie because Lighting and shots are one of the most important things other than sound used for making films.

Princess Bride

The princess bride I have to say is one of my most favorite movies. It has so many genres packed into one movie. It can be classified as an Action, Adventure, Comedy, Parody in a way, and Romance. The camera movements in the movie were awesome, I personally am a big fan of wide shots, where we see almost everything that is occurring in the scene, and this movie was full of it. The story line itself was remarkable because it isn't our typical guy saves girl but a story about how true love can overcome anything. The man that fought for his bride had to leave her and make sacrifices and then when he saw that she was to wed another he came just in time to the rescue. He overcame a giant, a master swordsman , death, a genius and the Princes whole army just to be with his love. I also like the development of characters throughout the movie. We see the giants gentle side, the swordsman's forgiveness, and the Princess learn that true love does exist. From a critics point of  view id say the acting was great, shots were excellent, scenery was beautiful, and just an Overall amazing must see movie.
