Gasman (1997)
Interesting film
15 February 2014
Warning: Spoilers
A little girl Lynne and her little brother is dressing up. They are going to a party. Their father takes them to where the party is going to be held. On their way, they meet a woman and a girl and a boy and these two children are also taken to the party. Four kids get along with each other. But at that party, that girl was sitting on Lynne's fathers knees. Lynne gets angry about her and hits her. Her father only scolds at Lynne. The party was over and they were on their way home. Lynne was having a question in her mind. Who were they and why did that girl in intimate terms with Lynne's father? I watched this film but I still don't understand some points. What I understand is that the father is keeping a secret. To know what it is, you should see this film many times.

Notting Hill (1999)
An unordinary love story
15 February 2014
This film is about a love story but it has one point unordinary. A normal book seller William fell in love with a Hollywood star Anna. At the beginning of this film, Anna goes to the book store where William works. After she buys a book, they again come across each other in the middle of the town. Then they get along with each other. However, since Anna is a Hollywood star, there were lots of difficulties for their love. Will they be able to get married? Each conversation of two main characters makes me smile. I like the phrase "Oopsy daisy" which is a phrase William used in this film. What's good about this film is that the ending is so dramatic. William asks Anna to marry him in a special way. I can't say anymore since it would be a spoiler so I would strongly recommend you to see this film.

The only salad?
15 February 2014
A woman is walking in a station, a little bit hurrying to be on time for the train. But she bumps into a man and her belongings spread on the ground. She quickly picks them up and hurries for the train but she can't make it. She has extra time for the next train so she goes to a restaurant and orders a salad. Leaving the seat for a while to go and get a fork, a scary man is eating the salad. She first gets angry, because the man didn't give it back but two of them start to eat the salad together. After having a cup of coffee the woman leaves. But she quickly returns to the restaurant because she left her belongings there. Then, the most important part of this film, the woman realizes that she made a big mistake. I won't say what it is so you see what happened by yourself. I first thought this is a serious film but it was kind of funny one.

Family love
15 February 2014
Can you believe a homeless boy being a top NFL player? It seems impossible but according to this film the answer is yes, and surprisingly, this is a true story. The slam boy Michael was living by himself until a woman takes him to her house. Then he became adopted by that family. He had never played American football, but with a lot of effort and his big strong body, he becomes a good player. He also studies very hard and become smart enough get a scholarship. He then becomes famous and he is scouted by NFL. What is good about this film is that the family is treating him like a real member of the family. The way Michael contact with his brother is funny. What is interesting is that this is a true story and Michael Oher is doing very well in NFL. I don't really see NFL games but this film moved my heart a lot.

Lifted (2006)
9/10
A funny abduction
15 February 2014
"Lifted" is a film about abduction, an UFO lifting a human in it by unscientific power. It might sound scary but it's a comical film. Two aliens are on the UFO, and one of them is a little boy alien trying to pull a human by using many controllers of the UFO and the other woman alien is testing him. The little boy alien isn't doing very well and the woman alien is getting displeased about it. Will he able to succeed in the abduction? If you want to know, you must watch this film! I was surprised with this film because the theme of it is abduction which is actually a scary thing but this film is rather a funny one. The characters are like cartoon and no words are spoken but you will know what the aliens are feeling by their faces and how they act. It's only about 5 minutes, short enough to watch in your free time!

The Gift (2010 Video)
7/10
A tragedy caused by "the Gift"
15 February 2014
At a chilly place, a man is delivering a box. This might be a normal situation but there are some things which are unusual. A robot dog is walking around. Many men wearing full-faced mask are guarding the road. A robot man is serving a rich family. This situation is making this film tense. When the man arrives to a wealthy man's house, these two men starts to open the box and see what is inside it. Inside this box, "the Gift", is important in this film. After opening it, a scramble for this gift starts. Even a murder happens to get it. With several action scenes and realistic CGs, this film is full of stimulation. The way robots move is like a real creature. It would be quite difficult to understand the meaning of "the Gift", and since this movie isn't so long, about 5 minutes, I recommend you see this movie several times.

Knick Knack (1989)
Snowman's challenge
15 February 2014
It's a story about a snowman in a half-hemisphere glass full of water trying to get out of it. Why does he try to do so? It's because a beautiful woman is inviting him to where she is. Near her, the figures of things that remind us of sunny place such as trees, pyramid, cactus, and a skeleton holding a surf board are dancing. The snow man tries many ways to get out of the glass such as hitting the ornament on the glass, using his nose as a pick, digging the ground with a drill, and using dynamites. Will he able to get out of it? In this film one music is played and this sound reminded me of sunny place. The result of each challenge the snow man did is comical and makes me laugh. I like the ending of this film which I recommend you to see it by yourself.

Fish Out of Water (I) (2009)
9/10
A big clever fish comes out of water!
12 February 2014
Warning: Spoilers
This story is not about a fish. It's a story about a worker who goes to work by rowing a small boat to the opposite shore every day. One day, a woman comes to ride on his boat. The worker think it is fine. Then the next day, the woman and another man who was quite a bit impolite also comes to ride on the boat. He isn't happy about it. And one day after, two more rude guys come to ride. He can't stand it anymore. The worker doesn't want to let them ride on his boat. So, what does he do? Simple but funny! He goes to the opposite shore by swimming like a fish! Now that the worker is annoyed by no one, he can go to work delightfully. This film makes me really feel great. The story and the ideas are quite simple but it is fun and makes us feel invigorated.

Cigarettes give us no thing good
12 February 2014
Warning: Spoilers
This film makes us think about how we should deal with cigarettes. A little girl is told by her sick father to buy and bring him cigarettes. She knows that cigarettes are bad for health but she goes out to buy them. After facing lots of hardships, She finally gets one. But she remembers herself saying "You will die if you smoke". At the end of this film she reluctantly gives her father a cigarette but he also realizes that health is more important that cigarettes so he says he doesn't need it.

This film moved my mind a lot. I really think there is no advantage in smoking. It just makes people addicted and unhealthy. This film is trying to impress how smoking has a bad influence not only on people who smoke, but also people around them. Isn't it high time that we think more about how we should deal with cigarettes?

Father and daughter
8 January 2014
"Father and daughter" is a very sophisticated animated film. It is not so long, about 8 minutes, but it has a strong message inside it. It's a story about the life of a girl and her father. At the beginning of this film, her father leaves her by rowing a boat. He never comes back. The girl grows up but she is always concerned about her father. At the end of this film, the girl finally meets her father.

What is great about this film is that no one speaks. The back music (which is quite sad) makes this film moody. Also, few colors are used in this film, mainly black and white, and this makes the entire film tasteful. I think it is quite hard to understand this film by seeing it once, so I recommend you see this movie many times. It makes you feel like your heart has been washed.
