Why I love/hate this film ( 1st Assignment )

Why I like my favourite film

My favourite film has to The Green Mile, I love this film for many reasons, one is the cast. The cast in this film is absolutely superb, it has Tom Hanks, who is one of the most well known actors ever, and also starred in Forest Gump, Saving Private Ryan and Toy Story. It also has Michael Clark Duncan who played John Coffey, I find his acting impeccable, he not only creates a scene but can quite capably  make any grown man cry, unlike another acting powerhouse (Arnald Swarztineger). Both of these together make in themselves a brilliant cast, along with the others who all play their parts excellently. Another reason I love this film is because of the script, most of the film is set on a tiny scene which consists of about 8 prison cells and the hallway imbetween, I think this is done so well because of how the characters play out, for example there is;

The Leader, guard (Paul Edgecombe)

The Muscle, guard (Brutus 'brutal' Howell)

The crazy, selfish, stubborn and greedy "fathers son", guard (Dean (percy) Stanton)

The large murderer, with a twist (John Coffey)

The insane real murderer (Wild Bill Wharton)

The Frenchman and his mouse ( Edward Delacroix)

And so on

All of these compose a storyline that I think never gets old.

I think that my least favourite think about this film is that my favourite character dies, but it's what he wanted, and without that ending, the storyline would make no sense.

Even though it hurts to say it, it would not be my favourite film with a different ending.

I also love the last five minuets, where he shows his love ( Paul ) his mouse ( Edward ) and that the reason he is still alive " I think that god was punishing me that day for killing one of his angels".

These reasons are why I love this film.

The next film I am going to review is "Twilight Saga"

Why I dislike my least favourite film.

My least favourite film is Twilight.

I would compare it to another terrible film, but it is that terrible I can't think of anymore, not even one comes close. I can't underestimate how overjoyed I was to hear that they were only producing a trilogy, but also how devastated to know that that my life would be wasted for another four hours or so when it carried on further.

I thought that "Mission Impossible" and "Fast and Furious" went on too long, I was wrong, they could have produced another 20 films before I got sick of them in comparison to Twilight. Let me tell you why...

Firstly the cast is dreadful. To chose the main role as a previous Harry Potter actor was a mistake, but even though I am patriotic, he may WELL be the worst British actor ever. He is dry, tasteless and bland, there is no other way to describe his indecent acting.

Next, we have a woman called Kristen Stewart, how can I describe her? Well, her acting is very similar to the character of "Plank" in "Ed, Edd and Eddy",but even he has more emotions than she does. When she eventually decides that she finally has to show some emotion, such as smiling it reminds me of the smile that "Mr Burns" would pull, as if she has never smiled.

These may be very large contributing factors in the story of my hatred, but I think that they would contribute more if I didn't have to comment on the storyline of the film, and how they had no interesting bits at all.

How they managed to make a love triangle go throughout all their films is beyond me, the woman is pathetic, she could quite easily chose without having to throw herself off a cliff or fall off a bike

 ( although, if it shortened the films, I would be more than happy if she didn't get back up).

As for the people who see the film I'm sure all they could comment on was the love triangle, which like I mentioned was boring and dragged on. ALSO it was very predictable, from the start, in fact, if that's the case, I recon you could watch the first movie and the last and then you wouldn't have to sit through what the writer calls a "middle".

I am displeased to say that I have had the missfortune to sit through and waste several hours in which I could have watched paint dry.

I would happily go on further but I am out of time, and I'm sure I'd run out of paper (In this case, internet and binary) my disgust runs that deep.

(I would rate this film -10 on a 1-10 scale)
