Alexander is a 11 years old boy. He experiences the most terrible and horrible day of his life. A day begins with gum stuck in his hair. At the day, many bad things happen to him and he begins wonder if bad things only happen to him.

In this film, we can see Alexander is becoming stronger and the love of this family is becoming deeper through bad experiences. Most people may experienced bad days, however we can love happy days thanks to bad days.

In my opinion, before watching this movie, I thought this movie is a just comedy and funny movie. However of course it wa really really funny but i felt family love and I was encouraged by Alexander and his family. Although I also have experienced bad days, I always become just disappointed. I want to try not to be just disappointed but to get something good from bad things. I could really enjoyed this movie

Dracula Untold

Vlad, who was called 'Dracura', was a prince of Transilvania. He has reigned his country peacefully until Sultan of Turk demanded 1000 boys for his army including Vlad's son. Because Vlad loved his family and country very much, he rejected Sultan's demands and killed ambassadors. Sultan was angry and invaded Transilvania with large army. Vlad didn't have enough army to protect his country. So he traveled to find a legendary demon, Master Vampire. Vlad made a deal with the vampire to get supernatural power. Finally, Vlad turned into a vampire, acquired the power for 3 days and also got insatiable thirsty to human blood. He could return to human after 3days if he could endure thirsty and didn't drink human blood. Then he came back his country...

Before this movie released, there were many horror movies about dracula. But this movie was not a horror, but an action, drama, fantasy movie. This movie was about the origin of dracula and highlighted dracula's humanity. He loved his wife, son and his country so he had no choice but to be a monster. It provided a different point of view about dracula. In addition, the action scene and the computer graphics were excellent. Especially, the scene that dracula defeted Sultan's numerous army in a valley was great. So I highly recommend this movie~!!

--- The Equalizer ---

This movie was released at September 26. Therefore, it is a one of quite new movies in the United States. The lead character is “Robert McCall” which is rolled by Denzel Washington. Cloe Grace Moritz rolls “Teri” as a Heroine of this movie. She became a popular actress with Kick Ass 1 (2010) & 2 (2013). Marton Csokas is on the movie as a notorious part, “Teddy”.
Directer of this movie, Antonie Fuqua, has made “Olympus has Fallen” (2013) or “the Shooter” (2006) besides “The Equalizer”. These are his relatively representative works.

Next, there are 5 expressions below which were covered in my past presentation.
“Judge a book by its cover”
This means to judge someone only by looking. For example, Robert used to be a once-time investigator of CIA. However, he currently works at a home center at daytime. Therefore people tend to judge a book by its cover, even he was very strong.
“Run into someone”
Run into someone means to meet by chance or an accident. Through a working experience at CIA, Robert can not sleep so well at night that reading in Cafe at midnight has been his habit. One day he went to the cafe at night to read a novel. He runs there into a girl, Teri. During getting know each other, he decided to overthrow the Russian Mafia which hurts her.
“Have an affinity”
This phrase is to have an affection for someone. Teri has had an affinity with Robert while they were talking every night at Cafe.
“Turn over a new leaf”
It means to restart something. Because Robert made a big effort to help her, Teri was able to turn over a new leaf.
“I am blown away”
This phrase is to be moved or be impressed by something. I am sure that many people are blown away every time after a movie.

Conclusion.
From 24,519 users of IMDb, it was gotten 7.5 / 10 as a rating to the movie. It seems to me this rating is quite acceptable. As Mike mentioned in the class, this number is relative high. I recommend you to watch the movie.

Thank you.

However, this story does not finish just as mystery. The unbelievable story await you!

Opinion
When the movie ended, I got goose bumps. Because this movie is so elaborate. Some factors are intertwined artfully. So, you will be stunned when you watch this film until the very last. This movie makes you think about love. I thought there is a difference between really loving someone and loving the idea of her. And if I fall in love with someone, I would like to build symbiotic relationship.

Conclusion
I highly recommend this move and give it 4 stars ★★★★. Because this story was so exciting that I could not take my eyes away from the screen. And this film also made me think about life and love. I think one of theme is that there is a difference between really loving someone and loving the idea of someone. I cannot write anymore about story. So, if you want to know the end of this movie, you should go to Movie Theater and watch Gone Girl!
