12 Alternative Christmas Films Your Family May Judge You For Picking
You know the routine by now.

There’s a number of safe options of course; perhaps the routine visit to the McCallister house to see young Kevin fend off two idiot thieves in Home Alone?

Everybody Is Shooting Everybody Else In The Trailer For Ben Wheatley's Gun-Slinging Madcap Crime Comedy 'Free Fire'
" Everyone’s got a gun, and absolutely no one is in control." Nothing is as entertaining as watching a movie where two gangs go bloody bonkers in a deserted warehouse over a weapons deal gone south. Plus, it's in the late 70s and its produced by Martin Scorsese. This is enough to pike a simple man's interest.

Shawshank Redemption : The Famous Oak Tree Has Fallen Down
The great white Oak tree made famous by the 1994 movie based on Stephen King's story has been overtaken by natural forces. That massive oak tree in a particularly beautiful hayfield to which Morgan Freeman travels after he's dropped off near a Buxton sign on a mini pickup truck as he says, "Much obliged". That tree under which Andy Dufresne had hidden a box nearby. That tree under which Andy made love to his wife. That tree is gone. Appearing in the final sequences of the film , the tree serves as an archetypal movie 101 where a structure of memorable or outlandish outlook is used as a page turner. Nevertheless, a scene that satisfied the cravings of the original book enthusiasts alongside an immaculate display of cinematography and enaction.

Spirited Away: An Exploration of Japanese Identity
Spirited Away, awarded the Best Animated Feature Film Academy Award in 2003, is not just a coming-of-age story about a 10 year old girl. It is a film that explores the tension between Japanese tradition and Western modernity without drawing straight lines demarcating that “Japanese” or “tradition” is good, and “Western” or “modernity” is bad. Instead, it complicates these ideas to show that neither one is clear-cut, and suggests that whilst Japan must not forget its roots, these can be reconciled with Western modernity to form a new Japanese identity.

Lion King vs Frozen
I am 22 years old, born in 1995 right in the prime of The Lion King. As a kid this movie made you feel something, to this day it still does. This was THE animated Disney movie for my childhood, and still is really in my opinion. The iconic songs, the great plot line, all the feels that it gave you. It truly is an amazing animated film.

The Shape of Water Dream Dance Is the Best Scene of 2017
The fantasy dance sequence in Guillermo Del Toro’s sublime, The Shape of Water, is the finest single scene in any movie in 2017. The scene begins with Sally Hawkins’ Elisa, just before she must deliver her new amphibian-man lover to the sea. Elisa is attempting to tell this creature, which likely cannot understand her beyond the most basic communication, that she is in love with him. Complicating things further is the fact that Elisa is mute.

How Christopher Nolan Has Mastered Multiple Genres
The Dark Knight. Inception. Dunkirk. What do all these films have in common? They're directed by one of the most successful auteur directors of our generation. If you've watched several of Christopher Nolan's films, then you know that he has certain themes running throughout them all. He likes to study psychology, which is something that stands out a lot in his films. Inception, for instance, really explores the depths of people's minds and the science of it.
