Favourite Movies

Hii, I thought I would lead on from my last entry and tell you my 5 favourite movies plus my favourite from when I was a child and explain why they are great.

 

Young Victoria

This movie is about what Queen Victoria went through before she got crowned queen. I find English history (especially about the monarchs) very interesting. So I wasn’t surprised when I fell in love with this movie. This is a beautifully made movie, and looks like it was actually filmed in the 19th century.

 

Pitch Perfect

This is my favourite movie at the moment. I went to the cinema twice to see it and bought it on Wednesday, we have watched about eight times since then. I’m kind of addicted to how funny and catchy the songs are. I also like how the love story wasn't really in your face like some other movies are. It took me a while sitting in the cinemas to realise Jesse and Beca were falling in love. But it might be just me. My sister and I bought the entire album months ago so we know all the songs off by heart, which makes the experience of watching the movie even better because we can sing along! I also playing think Rebel Wilson did an amazing job playing Fat Amy. She apparently ad-libbed a lot of the lines. I also like how they changed her character to be Australian, I find that a nice touch. This is the new Mean Girls, I’m not sure about other places, but nearly everyone at my school can quote the movie! Whilst writing this entry today I -of course accidentally-  may have  watched it three times.. It's been a very productive day;).

The Breakfast Club

This is such an amazing and very emotional movie. It feels real, especially when Claire comes straight out and is honest about her future relationships with the rest of the characters. I especially like the ending and how the song ties the movie together. I get a bit teary every time I watch this movie!! Because of this movie, it encouraged me to watch other 80's movies, and I love them. Molly Ringwald is an amazing actress!

Angus Thongs and the Perfect Snogging

I love this movie because it is so cute and hilarious!! The things the characters do and go through are just plain funny. Even my mum likes it; she once told my friends that it was like rite of passage for every teenage girl to watch. I was a bit embarrassed, but she has a point. Every single girl on this planet should watch this movie!! Even if they are 75 years old, they will be able to relate to it.

The Hunger Games

This is a great movie and had been produced amazingly! I read the books before I watched it and the producer, actors, costume people and every other single person that helped create the movie has done Suzanne Collins justice. I cannot wait for the rest of this trilogy to be filmed. I am especially excited for Catching Fire (which is coming out this year) to be made as it is my favourite book out of the series.

 Secret of NIMH

I don’t really know why this was my favourite movie when I was a kid, but it was! I’m not even really sure where we got it. I just remember sitting down many times and watching it, and being annoyed when my younger sister didn't want t watch it because it scared her. It’s a movie about a family of mice needing to move because the farm which they live on is going to be destroyed because it’s harvest season. Whilst that is a big problem, I’m pretty sure one of the young mice is sick so can’t be moved. The mother goes on an adventure to find the secret of NIMH so she can rescue her family.

So there you are. I hope I encouraged you to watch one of those movies, even if you have seen it a million times. Or even encourage you to make a blog entry about your favourite movies.
