Awesome Movie Review on Life of Pi


So I saw Life of Pi in the movie theater but when I went, it wan't available in 3D :(
I was super impressed with the the casting choices and performances of the actors and extremely impressed by the effects. Despite the slow start of the movie, it was very beautiful, and in the end, Life Of Pi was more character driven than anything. The characters were so rich and full of life that you couldn't help but fall in love with them. The animators did a wonderful and accurate job of bringing Richard Parker (the tiger) to life and making him the active and vital character that is so incredibly essential to the success of this story. I would recommend seeing Pi in 3D, but I don't think that's it's essential since I didn't see it in 3D and still enjoyed the beautiful effects, but the 3D just takes a beautiful film and makes it a little bit nicer and come to life more.

The spiritual themes are simple and deep and raise more questions about faith and belief than answer anything. Without giving anything away, it's a wonderful story about storytelling and how telling our stories can get us through the most horrible life experiences and to help deal with the aftermath of them. I recommend this film to anyone who hasn't watched it yet.







Awesome Movie Review on Les Miserables.


 I remember when this movie trailer first came out on TV and my first thought was, "This movie is going to be so corny" "It's probably about some boring historical event" and etc. After I while I noticed how this movie constantly kept winning awards and receiving good reviews that I finally gave in on a bored Friday night.   Since i couldn't go to the movie theater and watch it i saw it online on http://www.watchfreemovies.ch/ .
 And let me tell you I do not regret watching it at all and was left speechless.This film is amazing. Absolutely incredible. It made three hours seem like ten minutes. It is so touching that when it ended I cried like a baby.
 The movie flowed beautifully. The changes made worked very well. And I didn't think there was any weak link in the cast. The live singing was superb, it showed the fragility (and flaws) of every performer ... and that's what a live-performance is all about. But in order for someone to watch it, they have to be the musical type. Even though I am the musical type, I was still annoyed how every entire word was sung that my ears ached, since most musicals I've seen had songs sang but the words were spoken. Yet the actors performances and the heart touching story of the movie distracted me from that.
 Anne Hathaway's performances blew everybody out of the water even though she was there for 5 minutes in the beginning and appeared 5 minutes towards the end, I wished she would have stayed throughout the movie. But the masterpiece scenes like that kept on coming. It's amazing how the film can take us through every emotions there is. From the struggle for existence, to the the uplifting revolutionary spirit, then fatherly love and the encompassing integrity of Jean. Everything that happened kept my emotions high.  "Les Miserables" is a wonderful masterpiece, and is certainly one of the best films I have ever watched and I really didn't expect to like it as much as I did and recommend it to everybody !!!!!!



8th Grade Prom Experience at Roma View

One June 6th, 2013, I had my 8th grade prom at Roma View Catering in Howard Beach.









 It's a pretty small place from the outside, but on the inside the venues are gorgeous, and the food was amazing. It wasn't my first time there, I want there for a friends bar mitzvah once earlier in the year so it brought back old- weird memories. 
 So, my prom dress was a Sherri Hill dress. I got it at prom outfitters in Flatbush ave which is an AMAZING store. Its a looks and is a pretty small store but on the inside it is packed with beautiful name brand dresses.
                                                     http://www.promoutfitters.com/

 It took me a long time to find the right dress, thank god the lady there was patient and help me throughout the whole entire process even though there were 50 other girls there trying on dresses. I tried on a lot of dresses but kept coming back and thinking about the same dress i first tried on and couldn't think of any other dress but that one. 
 The dress was on sale for $450 but that was wayyyy over my budget so they lowered it to $400 (which was still over budget but it was a Sherri Hill dress soo...yeah)
  
 ^  It was a lot shorter than that
                                               
 


 Anyways prom was from 1 to 5 (which was soo not far that it was that early) and I got my hair and makeup done professionally. 
 I had a really great time at prom and it was a really awakening experience knowing that the friends that are always there for me will soon be leaving me and I will be all by myself which is extremely scary for anyone.
The DJ was amazing, the food was amazing and so was the experience. I will always remember prom and never regret going, Being surrounded by the whole entire 8th grade makes me realize how much I am gonna miss being at my school (my comfort zone). Even though I've been through hell and back in that school, it still made me who i am today, but a bird can't stay in its nest forever.

  Moving on, is a simple thing, what it leaves behind is hard.....
